Just
past the 200m mark in the 3,000m final, Kim Smith of Providence
had already...
|
...broken
away from the field. Even though she had run the 5,000 in record
time the previous...
|
...evening,
she appeared to have plenty left here. Michaela Mannova of BYU...
|
...and
Megan Metcalfe of West Virginia led the rest of the field.
|
The
question went from being, "Can Smith win the 3K too?"
to "Can Smith set the 3K record too?"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mannova,
one of the top steeplechasers in the NCAA, led the rest of the pack.
|
Notre
Dame's Molly Huddle and Colorado's Renee Metivier run together.
|
Sara
Bei, who had run such a great anchor leg for Stanford in the previous
night's DMR, runs in the pack.
|
Villanova
sophomore Marina Muncan, who had also anchored her team's DMR, runs
in the pack.
|
Smith
had the following numbers to chase: Tyson Record: 8:55.17 by Sentayehu
Ejigu of Ethiopia, Meet Record: 8:54.98 by Stephanie Herbst (1986)...
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and
Collegiate Record: 8:53.54 by PattiSue Plumer (1983).
|
Mannova
leads Metcalfe and NAU's Ida Nilsson (another top steeplechaser).
|
The
rest of the field strings out behind Mannova.
|
Nilsson
(older sister of Johanna Nilsson, the mile runner-up) runs in the
line.
