Lance opens things by talking about Wesley Kiptoo third-best time in NCAA history at the BU Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener in Boston. Kiptoo's third-place effort of 13:14.74 also shatters his own school record for 5,000. Four Cyclones - Gable Sieperda, Thomas Pollard, Chad Johnson and Ezekiel Rop - also landed in the top 10 in ISU history with their performances at the Woo Pig Classic in Arkansas. Four Cyclones also finished 2-5 to earn spots in the school's record book for the 1,000 meters. Former Ballard runner Abby Kohut-Jackson also took fourth with a new PR in the 3,000. Former Des Moines Christian prep Oksana Johnson highlighted the efforts with a win in the 800 meters at the SDSU Holiday Classic in Brookings. Several Dordt runners qualified for nationals indoors and for the marathon outdoors at a half marathon qualifying event in Fremont, Neb. A former Mid-Prairie star fared well for Liberty in a 5,000 at home while an Iowan running for Northwest Missouri State landed a provisional qualifying effort for nationals while two Grand View runners did make the field for NAIA indoor nationals. At Clash Daytona, former Storm Lake resident Matt Hanson finished fourth in his comeback race from knee surgery. Two former Iowan residents also fared well at the CIM event in Sacramento.
