[Hold My Own]

these guys are unreal....look at some of the schools they stomped

[Rocketfan]

Is there any reason there should not be a huge picture of these two in the N @ A with this story. I mean its gotta be a first right?

[PeterParker]

Does anyone have any info on the recruiting efforts for next years cross-country team? If they were able to recruit about three more solid guys they could potentially make a run to nationals...and take some of the limelight from the perennial powerhouse William & Mary teams. The brothers sure have gotten a lot of press for the schools, and in running circles the HS athletes are acutely aware of the big names in collegiate running. Seems with the exposure and the chance to run with such a talent, the Track office should be getting some decent inquiries about the program from some upper echelon running talent at least from the VA schools.
