No Women Going to NCAA Meet
The NCAA field was just announced and unfortunately it does not include any W&M women. The men, of course, are automactic qualifiers. Check back later in the week for ways to watch the even live and get results quickly.

Men, 1st and Women 5th At Regionals
The men automatically qualify for the NCAA meet next Wednesday with just a 54 second space separating the top five runners. The women, led by Meghan Burns leading the women to a fifth place finish, their best team run of the year and better than the polls predicted. Results for men and women. Colin Leak, Patterson Wilhelm, Ben Massan and Meghan Burns each earned All-Southeast honors. This will be the 12th straight time the men have gone to the NCAA meet. The women technically still have a chance, but still probably won't go (to be announced on Tuesday). More and more more

Nice To Be Noticed
Last year runnersworld.com linked to one of our interviews and today trackandfieldnews.com did the same (see above) for the interview with Paul Vandegrigt below. The last time a W&M person was featured in T&F News for adding a story was when our own Randy Hawthorne was a regular contributor in the 1980s!
