All-American Olivia Pratt is now steps closer to qualifying for the national championships after clocking 15:59.89 for 5,000 meters at the Husky Classic on Friday. Her time was good enough for tenth in the fast heat.
Roe added that the mark would traditionally qualify Pratt for the championships, but that this is an 'exceptionally tough year.'
"We will have to wait and see if (the time) gets her in after scratches," he said.
Fellow All-American Erik Peterson ran 13:58.68 for 5,000 meters, good for 14th in the fast section at the Husky Classic.
