The best thing for the boys was that they began to feed off the success we had (last year) and believe they could compete.

The girls sprint crew is inexperienced, and the boys distance runners are young.

We are pretty sure that the boys were seventh and the girls tied for fifth, but I don't even know who we tied.

We'll have more to talk about in a couple of weeks, really. At this point it's all conjecture, but in a few weeks we'll know more about what's possible and what we need more work on.

You don't lose those kinds of individuals and have your team go unaffected. But you build a program that allows younger runners to develop and take the place of those who graduate when they're called upon to contribute, and we have that here.

We're not as good as we're going to be, but we saw some things that give us an idea of what we might do. Some of that was good, some not so great.
