Sam McEntee books his ticket to Rio and adds his name to the list of 'Nova Olympians
Villanova's streak of having a Wildcat participate in every Summer Olympiad since 1948 will continue this summer at Rio 2016.
After winning the Australian Olympic Trials 5,000 Meter run in early April with a time of 13:37.95, Sam McEntee had until July to secure a 13:25 qualifying time. Over the weekend, McEntee ran a 13.20.72 at the 20th Annual Payton Jordan Cardinal Invitational Track and Field Meeting held on Stanford's campus to book his ticket.
