When all is said and done, this year in Bronco sports is sure to be remembered as "the year of the true freshman". Paris Austin is doing upperclassmen type things on the basketball court, on the gridiron, Brett Rypien was named first-team All-MWC (and freshman of the year), and a diminutive (like, seriously diminutive) runner from Alaska has taken the cross-country country world by storm. That runner's name is Allie Ostrander, and as far as freshman go, she's the best of the bunch.
It's not that running is particularly hard...running is extremely hard. In fact, given the choice between running a cross-country race or a little "light" waterboarding, I may just say, "to hell with the Geneva conventions".
