UA distance runners finish strong in Seattle
A winter storm that was expected to drop 6 to 8 inches of snow on Seattle played havoc with the schedule at the Husky Invitational, where both the University of Arkansas men's and women's track and field teams sent several distance runners to compete.
Races that were supposed to be run Friday night or Saturday instead were rescheduled so the meet could be over by early Friday afternoon.
Coaches weren't sure until late Thursday night when races would be run on Friday, Arkansas men's Coach Chris Bucknam said.
"Everything got pretty crazy," Bucknam said. "It was chaotic. We told our guys, 'When you wake up in the morning, be prepared to compete.' "
