Penn Relays is four weeks away. Interesting to contemplate the 4x1600 for women. Or is it 4x1500? Reid, Mimic and Lipari will make-up three of the legs. Who is the fourth - Callie Hogan, Alison Smith, Amanda Marino or even Kelly McElroy or Summer Cook? I don't believe Sarah Morrison will be a factor.
They came close, last year, with arguably a stronger team. Wright of Tenn ran a very smart anchor to seal the win. Reid ran well but not smart on the anchor. You simply don't try to pass a runner like Wright on the turn. Hurt her. But I think Reid is a superior runner, this year, so it will be interesting.
Hogan of two years ago would be the choice, but this year ...?
Women have a good chance of winning two - DMR & 4x1600.
