Much anticipation to see if Oregon women could smash the 4x1500 record held by Ark at 16:53 but Oregon not showing up. Elmore 4:08, Kazimierska 4:09, Ayyildiz 4:12 (est from 4:30 mile), and Barnett 4:16 (est from4:34 mike) for a total of 16:45.

washington will win going away.
WA entries are not their best foursome for 4x1500 (Sat). Based on entries it looks close to me between UVA and NC St with UVA having edge with Appleton on anchor - though they are in DMR on prior day. WA looks like they loaded up DMR(Fri) and 4x800 (Sat). NC St is all in on 4x1500, though Hartman running 1500 and not the relay.
Penn Relays has not been on TV (it was NBC) since 2019. That was the last year of USA vs. The World in the 4x100. The 2020 and 2021 meet was canceled. Post-covid, when Penn Relays returned in 2022, USA vs. The World was no longer part of the meet, and NBC was no longer broadcasting a couple of hours of the meet on Saturday afternoon. This meet not being on TV is not a new development.
Gotta love how the heat seedings were done for these prelim rounds. One of the Jamaican teams DESTROYED their heat competition during the girls 4x100, as they won their heat by over 5.5 seconds. They still have the top time of the prelim round (46.72) but the event is still underway.
Arrgg, Washington is bring the B team :(. Another 4x1500m powerhouse Norte Dame not showing up and that’s a 1 hr flight. I’d pick GT with Riggins and Scrimgeour (sp). Will they even break 17:00 :(.

There’s another thread “is GT the premier 800m Univ?” If they win the 4x1500m at penn relays and break 17:00, they are the best 1500m/mike Univ also.
... and now we wait 15 minutes before the next race begins. There should just be a 5 minute gap max between these events. The relays portion of the meet isn't afraid to go ahead of schedule.
9:57.94 personal best for Penn's Olivia Morganti in the college women steeplechase. She burst into the lead with about 600m to go and held on. The time falls within the meet top 10.
