2010 Track and Field Season
I have not done a very good
job this spring keeping up with everyone so feel free to shoot me an e-mail
with an update and I will mention you here.
Chris Derrick is
back from his nagging Achilles injury and fall (yes, he fell during a run and
cut up his knee and face). He ran a
14:31 5k at the Mt. Sac Relays. Danny Pawola
ran a 14:19 5k at the Penn Relays.
This is a great time for a freshman!
Hopefully, he can improve upon this in May. Bryan Winek is
out with a stress reaction in his shin.
Kevin Grady and Brian Griffith are rounding back into
shape after nagging injuries this fall/winter and we should see some
promising times soon. Kevin ran a
frustrating 16:10 at their home meet this past weekend while Brian ran a
4:11.6 1500m. Jimmy Riddle will make his debut at a home meet next weekend in Champaign. He has worked diligently on his gait so he
does not heel strike as much.
Hopefully, this will result in faster times and avoid more stress
fractures in his shins. RJ McNichols
continues to pile in the training miles and ran a 9:08 3k at Wheaton on the 18th of April. He ran a 15:30 5k too! Marshall
Stewart continues to run everything from the 100m 800m and ran a 11.5/50.5 double at a recent meet and split 48x in the
400m last weekend. Zach Splan
is running the 400m hurdles outdoors and ran a 54.9 at their home meet. Ryan
Bertram is trying his hand in the steeple chase and ran a 10:24 recently. No word on anyone else
..
2009 Cross Country Season
Clicking on the name to the right will link you to the
home page for results.
Weekend of September 12th
Danny Pawola had a great first race
for Penn State.
He was Penn
States first man (top
two varsity runners did not run) and looks like he will factor into their top
seven this fall. RJ McNichols and Connor Shields both ran in the Bradley Open
and both ran very well.
RJ ran a pr of 26:39 for the
8k while Connor ran 27:11. Brian Morenus
ran 27:29 in his second race for West Point
in a dual meet vs. Cornell. I have not
talked to Brian, but my bet is that a race last weekend combined with a trip
back here last weekend and the demands of school wore him out a little J Jim Nuxoll ran 29:49 in his first race
of the year. Brian Rooney was Washington
Universitys 8th man at
the Maryville Invitational, running 22:09 for the 6k.
Weekend of September 5th
Ryan Bertram
continues to compete well for Augustana. He ran 30:27 for the 8k at Western Illinois. Chris Derrick is training at Mammoth Lakes at high altitude and will debut
at the Stanford Invitational in a couple of weeks. Jimmy
Riddle is healthy and looking great in practice according to Coach McRaven. He will
debut in a couple weeks at the Roy Griak
Invitational. RJ McNichols ran many 80 mile weeks
this summer and it is paying off. He
ran 20:22 in his first race at Elmhurst College. Andrew
Dunham ran 22:24 in the same meet and was also named captain of the Bluejays. Kevin Grady and Bryan Winek had their first race of the
season at the Illini Challenge. Bryan ran well finishing 13th in
19:40. Kevin had an off day but we
know he will rebound. Brian Morenus
had his first race at West Point
running 16:52 for the 5k and finishing 12th overall. Dan
Murphy was named captain by his teammates at Loras College. Brian
Rooney ran 22:58 at an early bird meet
in St. Louis. Connor
Shields was 10th overall at the Titan Open in
Bloomington
running 17:24 for a tough 5k course.

2008 Cross Country
..
October 31/November 1, 2008: Chris Derrick ran another great race to finish 3rd overall at the Pac-10 meet
in Eugene, Oregon.
I was told there were 5,000 people watching this race. I texted Chris to congratulate him and his response was, thanks, but the
team did not win so I am not happy.
Stanford is ranked 2nd in the country and Oregon is ranked first. Cross country is a TEAM sport and Chris fully understands this and I am
sure he and his teammates will be ready to go for the Regional meet in two
weeks and the NCAAs 9 days after that.
RJ McNichols,
Marshall Stewart, Joe Murphy, Andrew Dunham, and Ryan Bertram all ran in the CCIW meet on Saturday. Andrew
ran in the varsity race
and the other four ran in the Open race. Marshall ran
a great race (57th overall) and is starting to excel at cross country. Dan
Murphy ran in the Iowa Conference Championships to help his Loras team to
second place. Jim Riddle is experiencing some IT band issues and wont be
running in the Big Ten meet. He is
expected to run in the upcoming Regional meet in two weeks. I recently saw Steve Arves and he filled me in on his
season. Steve is skinny as ever and is
working hard. Look for him to continue
to improve. Here is a recap of his
season: St. Olaf Invitational-
139th in 31:03; UW-Eau Claire Blugold Meet- 227th
in 29:18; Jew Drews Invitational- 318th in 29:32
October 24th/25th, 2008: Some things never change as two guys from last years
national championship team, Kevin
Grady and Josh Budnik,
finished right behind one another at the Illini Invitational.
Eric Olen ran
possibly the best race of his career at their conference meet while running
26:58 and dropping almost 40 seconds off his previous best. He was Ithacas 9th man and earned all-conference
honors. James Nuxoll (28:24)and
Ryan Miller (29:42) ran at the NAIA Great Lakes Invitational.
October 18th, 2008:
Freshman Chris Derrick ran in his second college race at the Pre-National Meet in Terre
Haute. He was
4th overall in 23:37! He was the second
man for Stanford which won the team title in the White Division. Stanford is ranked 10th in the country, but
with this victory, they should move up in the rankings. If you have not had the chance, be sure to
read his blog. Jimmy
Riddle did not run for Illinois
in this meet due to an IT issue. Kevin Grady ran in familiar territory
at the Bradley Classic in Peoria
this past weekend. He did not have the
greatest race but he is learning the ins and outs of college running. Andrew
Dunham ran 28:31 at the Osh Kosh Brooks Invitational. Dan Murphy ran 28:44 at the Loras Invitational to finish 32nd overall.
October 4-11, 2008:
Freshman Kevin Grady did not have a very good race (27:01) in the loaded Notre Dame Invitational on October 3rd. However,
as usual, we will see him bounce back and do great things. Brian
Rooney ran 29:14 at the Border War Invitational in Edwardsville on October 11th. Eric
Olen ran 28:00 on a slow course at the Hamilton Invitational on October 11th.
RJ McNichols
ran a 27:35 at the Carthage Invitational on October 3 and turned around and ran 28:16 on a
slower course at the Benedictine Invitational on the 10th!
Freshman Marshall Stewart
ran 30:33 at the Carthage Invitational.
Mike Ruff is still hurt. Joe
Murphy ran 29:13 at the Dan Huston invite in Waverly, Iowa
on the 11th. His brother, Dan Murphy, ran 28:26 at the Division III pre-national meet at Hanover
College. Andrew
Dunham ran 30:12 at the UW-Parkside Invitational on October 11th.
Andrew runs for Elmhurst
College. Their coach, Jim Akita, was one of the top
Americans in the Chicago Marathon held on the 12th.
September 26th/27th, 2008: Wow,
what a great weekend for our alumni!
Freshman Chris Derrick ran
his first race in a Stanford jersey and was #1 for their team and finished 3rd
overall (24:18) at the Stanford Invitational! Most dont
know, and Chris would never use anything as an excuse, but he was out for
another week with a virus and had only had 11 days of training before this
meet. I had two people ask me if he
was really human this past weekend J
Freshman Jim Riddle leads his Illinois teammates in
a recent race
Freshman Jim Riddle ran an awesome race at the Loyola Lakefront Invitational. He was 6th
overall and was Illinois
first man! Wow!!! Junior Eric Olen ran in the Houghton Highlander Invitational and ran 27:42 for the 8k to finish 13th overall. It was a NV reunion at the Lundeen-Brissman
Invitational at Augustana College in Davenport! Junior Dan
Murphy (27:44) got off to a great start as he battled Junior Brian Rooney (27:52) for NV supremacy
at this meet. Brian has worked his
tail end off and was Washington
Universitys 7th man at
this meet!! Other guys you will find
in the results are: Joe Murphy (29:01); Ryan Miller (29:33); Jim Nuxoll (29:34);
Andrew Dunham (29:50); and Ryan Bertram (31:45).
September 19th/20th, 2008: The
Illinois Intercollegiate meet (results) was hosted by Illinois State
on Friday night and we had great representation. Freshman Jimmy Riddle ran a strong race to finish 12th overall in 25:17
for the 8k race. He was Illinois 4th
man. Freshman Kevin Grady continued to surprise many as he was ISUs 8th man in 26:34.
Kevin is a walk-on at ISU, so, to be their 8th man as a freshman is an
incredible achievement. Freshman Ryan Perry continues to impress
too. He ran 29:11 as CODs 3rd
man. Junior Andrew Dunham is showing that he is rounding back into
shape. He ran 30:21 for the Elmhurst College team. Senior Ryan Miller ran 30:44 and his Junior teammate, James Nuxoll,
ran 29:47. Freshman Ryan Bertram ran his debut race for Augustana at this meet and ran 30:24. Freshman Marshall Stewart had his debut for Carthage College
by running in the Concordia Invitational in 33:19. No
word on where Mike Ruff
was
..??? RJ?? Joe Murphy?? Loras site is down any word on Dan Murphy?
September 12th/13th, 2008: Junior Eric Olen
improved upon his 4 mile time from two weeks ago to run 21:09 on the Oneonta,
New York
course. Oneonta is an Indian word
for hills. Results. Junior Brian
Rooney ran 30:28 for an 8k in Grinnell,
Iowa. Former teammate Dan Murphy ran 29:06 at the
same meet as a member of the Loras College
team. Results. Junior James
Nuxoll ran 31:09.7 for an 8k in Bowling Green, KY. Teammate Ryan Miller was right behind him in 31:17.9. Results. Last but not least, we got to see Freshman Ryan Perry run in the Bradley Open at
Detweiller
Park on Friday
night. The course was soggy from the
rain but Ryan ran a respectable 29:54 for the 8k. Results.
August 29th, 2008: Freshmen Jim Riddle and Kevin Grady
ran in the Early Bird Illini Classic for their first race. Jim was 2nd overall for the 6k running 5:02
pace! Kevin also ran very well
finishing as ISUs 5th man! Results found here and here.
Freshman Kevin Grady at the Illini
Early Bird Classic
