17 Gwen JORGENSEN SR Wisconsin 17:05.12

Did she fall?

[ed gee]

No, just ran slow throughout.

[26mi235]

No, just ran slow throughout.

Throughout, or once it was clear that she was not in the running she ran fast enough for honest effort but slow enough to save something for the 3000? I think that she burned her bridges for the Big Ten meet, and she is going to be going to work full time (accounting) at graduation, not professional running, although I think that the Triathlon groups might want a good swimmer that can run 15:55i into that sport.

[ed gee]

She was off the back early and looked exhausted.

Did not appear to have anything to save.

[Helen S]

What happened to Scherf? Injury?

[ed gee]

Not entered.

[Helen S]

Anyone have any knowldge why Scherf was not entered? Injury? Preparing for outdoor 10K?

Team USA Roster for World Cross, so probably training through last weekend as Fernandez was:

Senior Women
Samia Akbar (Herndon, VA)
Julie Culley (Alexandria, VA)
Delilah Dicrescenzo (New York, NY)
Rebecca Donaghue (State College, PA)
Katherine Newberry (Williamsburg, VA)
Lindsey Scherf (Eugene, OR)

[Helen S]

I thought that might be the case after checking to see how she did in the qualifier. No great hue and cry on the message boards about it though, as with Fernandez.
