Both the Women's and Men's Teams had great performances last weekend at Notre Dame, one of the biggest and most prestigious mid-season meets of the year. The Men placed 5th in a strong field, besting many higher ranked teams and moving up to third in the regional rankings as a result! Again, a big contribution was made by the middle-distance men, which means we may have to start calling them middle and long-distance men. The Women placed 10th, also besting their share of highly ranked teams. This sets them up for the Penn State National, which I hope to be able to report in person.
Also of note recently was a great performance of canine proportions. Jefferson the Dog (aka Peter Donato) set the World Record for Mascots in the Marathon. Don't try this at home! A 4:15:03 marathon in a full mascot costume (except for running shoes) is a feat worthy of acclaim.
