I wonder if they could win it all. Anyone follow track more closely? What are our chances?

I doubt it, but you can never tell with track. Looking over times/rankings it seems we're very good in field events but not good running events.
Yeah, IDK how well we'd do at the national competition, and so much rides on getting as much of your team qualified to be there to even get points. From the ranking that came out today (and unsure how rankings in track work, it seems to have some cumulative proprieties to it) we only moved up 1 spot after winning the Big 12 championship.

I think though the exciting thing is Rovelto was happy we won it a year before he thought we'd be good enough to win it.
“I thought we were a year away because this is an extremely young team,” Director of Track and Field and Cross Country Cliff Rovelto said. “It is so hard to win a conference title. But this group did not want to wait a year. They wanted it now. They competed their guts out.”
So maybe next year will be pretty special
