The women continue to impress. They seem to get better every week. We know about Siofra C-B. And she does not disappoint. Pay attention to Sammy Bockoven. Recall her outstanding leg on Women's 4x1500 at Penn, last year. This all bodes well for this year's Penn Relays - and Angel P will be there. Even the recruiting goes well with Rachel McArthur. Like her.
The men? Was impressed with Casey Comber's 4:07.8 mile. Did not think he was much of a miler, but surprise. Right now, a competitive Men's 4xMile for Villanova at Penn seems questionable, which does not speak well. Men's recruiting? Again, questionable. It is still early and there are still some very fine runners out there. But is VU in the hunt? Several years ago, Marcus sweet-talked Brian Long into coming to Villanova at the Penn Relays. Point; There is time and Marcus can be a charmer and he does work hard. Still waiting for VU to discover its own Clayton Murphy (since big names do not seem to be interested).
