I'll keep this in one forum since only four athletes are left.
Competing in Fayetteville, Arkansas next week are:
Kellyn Johnson - 5000m
You all know about Kellyn by now, she will run the 5k prelims Wednesday and the finals on Friday. She should be in the mix at the front of the race and I would think one of a half dozen girls that could win the championship.
Brooke Demo - Pole Vault
This is her 2nd straight trip to the NCAA Outdoor meet. Last year barely missed making the finals. She'll also compete Wednesday to try and advance to Friday's final. Has been very consistent all outdoor season and on a good day could finish in the top 8 and earn all-American honors.
Brett Trudo - Javelin
Also his 2nd straight trip to the NCAA Outdoor meet, struggled last year but looks like he is hitting his stride at the right time this year. Should qualify for the finals as both our guys will throw Wednesday and hopefully Friday. Has been ranked in the top-10 all season and has an excellent chance at getting an all-American.
Trent Mazanec - Javelin
Newcomer to the Shockers this year, first trip to NCAA's. Has been up and down but on his good days can push Trudo. Making the Friday final would probably be a good accomplishment for him and if he bombs a big throw could place well.
