Liz Weiler competes today (Thursday) in the 3000 meter steeplechase. The article I linked to in the post above says the start time is 5:02 p.m., but apparently that's 5:02 Pacific time. If that's right, then of course it's 8:02 Eastern.

Liz finishes 9th in her heat, and 18th overall. Doesn't qualify for the finals.

Congrats on a great season and a great career as a Rocket!

not a UT guy, but the Akron 1,500 meter guy (Clayton Murphy) just won a championship and looked impressive doing it with his kick. Pretty much smoked the guy from Washington that got all the pre-race hype. If we don't have a men's team, at least we can pull for some of the MAC teams that still exist. I believe Akron also had a champ last year in the pole vault. Maybe a couple of years ago, time flies anymore...

The athletic program at Akron is building an impressive resume. First winning the NCAA Men's soccer championship a year or so ago and now winning an individual title in the Men's 1500m. Akron is winning national championships in sports UT doesn't even offer.

I guess UT decided to put all their eggs the "winning MAC Championships" basket instead. Hmm, upon further reflection, I don't think that idea holds up under scrutiny.

Shawn Barber. He won a couple NCAAs. Quit to train for the Os where he'll likely compete for Canada.

Rockets announce another transfer on Instagram:

Quote:toledoxctf We're excited to welcome Madison Pierce to the Rocket family! Madison comes from Ortonville, MI by way of Siena Heights University. She has a LJ best of 19'6.25" and a PV best of 12'6". She should contribute right away in both events as well as help bolster our sprint ranks. #UTTF #RocketNation

That LJ would have finished 6th in the MAC championships last year. The PV, 9th.
