Marisa Howard Qualifes For Nationals

Boise State's Marisa Howard finished second in her heat today in the steeplechase to automatically qualify for the National Championships.  She had a time of 10:07.57, which is fifth in the West.  But the top three in each heat qualify, so she is in!

Congrats Marisa!

Wiles Half A Second From Going to the Nationals

Zach Wiles, the #5 seed in the West, finished fourth in his heat, and 15th overall.  His time of 8:50.46 was just one half-second from being 12th and qualifying for the NCAA National Championships.  That's a tough break.  He was in the lead with two laps to go, but three runners passed him.  A finish in the top three would have automatically qualified him.

Allan is amongst the early leaders after one lap.

Wiles Needs 8:49

The winner of the first heat in the steeplechase crossed the tape in about 8:42, while the #4 got there in just under 8:50.  Since there are three heats, you pretty much need to be in the top 3 or 4 to have a shot.  The top three is an automatic qualification to Nationals, and then they'll take the next three fastest times.

Zach Wiles Up In Less Than An Hour

So far for Boise State, it's the Emma Bates Show.  The next Bronco with a good chance to join her is Zach Wiles in the 3000 steeplechase.  Zach is up in less than an hour, and Marisa Howard will step up in the women's steeplechase right after Zach is done.  Howard is ranked eighth in the nation while Wiles is 33rd.

Howard will run in Heat 2 while Wiles will run in Heat 3 of their respective events.

With any luck, those two will punch their tickets to Nationals!  We don't want Emma to be lonely in Eugene.

 

Post Finishes 15th in Hammer

Boise State's Matt Post, ranked 10th in the nation, finished 15th in the Western Regional today and did not qualify for Nationals.  So far, it will be a lonely party at the Nationals, as Boise State's "team" consists of Emma Bates...
