Davidson
Hilliard OH leads four double-ranked schools
11/4/02 -- Marc Bloom's fourth Harrier magazine rankings
of the season feature four schools who can lay claim as the best
overall cross country programs in the country, having both boys
and girls teams ranked in the national Super 25 teams. Best record
is Davidson Hilliard OH. After a sweep of the Ohio
state meet, Davidson is ranked US#4 for boys and US#12 for girls.
The other three doubled-ranked schools are Mountain View
UT (boys #2 and girls #24), Kingwood TX (boys
#9 and girls #19), and Davis UT (boys #15 and girls #21). The

Wisconsin
STEVENS POINT WI 11/15/02 -- Chris (the Rocket)
Solinsky, US#1 2-miler last spring and 3rd in last year's
Foot Locker national finals, tonight announced he will run
for the University of Wisconsin next year.
Solinsky's decision came down
to Wisconsin and Stanford. "Both schools are very good,"
Solinsky said, "but the coach and the team atmosphere
at Wisconsin made me feel like it was a perfect fit for
me."
Solinsky signed the letter
of intent before a crowd of 80 fans and family in Thomas
(Pre) Jensen's "Club Men," a barn that has been
converted into a shrine to running. Local television interviewed
Solinsky in front of a wall devoted to his running accomplishments.
When a local music group sang the national anthem and came
to "the rocket's red glare," the crowd roared
and hugged The Rocket.
Solinsky's next race is the
Foot Locker Midwest regional, where he will attempt to qualify
for a return to the Foot Locker national finals as a favorite
to win. Solinsky said he will go for the win at the regional
instead of just running to qualify. "I can't take it
for granted because there are too many great runners in
the Midwest," Solinsky said. He said he feels really
good right now. He will run about 50 miles the regional
week and then, hopefully, taper for San Diego 2 weeks later.
