U. Oregon collecting early choices
With former Stanford coach Vin Lananna on board, the Ducks have verbal commitments by Nicole Blood NY, Bria Wetsch MN, Isaac Stoutenburgh OR, and Kenny Klotz OR, each of them Foot Locker contenders. Early signing period is Nov. 9-16.
After running in the Mayor's
Cup race in Boston, Saratoga NY sr Nicole Blood told
reporters she is leaning toward attending the University
of Oregon next year. Blood later told DyeStat, "UO is
my top choice and I plan to make a commitment and sign during
the early signing period in November." Blood made campus
visits to North Carolina, Oregon, Providence and Villanova.
Blood was 18th in 18:18 5k in the women's 5k race won by
Kim Smith in 16:35. Blood has been training on her own since
leaving the Saratoga team last spring, but she will be eligible
to run in the Foot Locker cross country Northeast regional,
which she has won the last two years.
Central Catholic Coach
Dave Frank released the following statement,
"Last week Kenny Klotz gave a verbal commitment to join his former
Central Catholic mates Galen Rupp, Scott Wall, and Stephen Oliver
at the University of Oregon next year."
Other HS runners in the Mayor's Cup were Blood's former Saratoga teammate Caitlin Lane (below right), 23rd in the women's 5k in 18:27, and Cushing Academy MA soph Sintayehu Taye, 21st in the men's 8k in 25:39.

Foot Locker-NTN qualifying issue still up in the air
Oct 7 -- Last year, with the Nike Team Nationals and the Foot Locker West regional running on the same day, a procedure was worked out whereby the top two individuals at NTN from each Foot Locker region would qualify for the Foot Locker national finals the following week. This increased the Foot Locker fields from eight per region to 10. Whether this procedure will be in place again this year is unknown. DyeStat talked to both Foot Locker and Nike and confirmed that the issue is being discussed, but neither company would disclose the options that are on the table.
Oct 20 -- Still no word from Foot Locker.
