Oregon and Galen Rupp the Talk of NCAA D1 Track & Field Championships

(6-10-09) This year's NCAA Division I Track & Field Championships are underway in Fayetteville, AK through Saturday. Oregon is in hot pursuit of its first men's title since 1984 and Galen Rupp is picked to win the 5,000 and 10,000 meters. Accompanying Rupp is marathon legend Alberto Salazar who has been his coach for the past eight years.

Rupp and his Oregon squad made the front page of USA Today and our friends over at Runnerspace.com will be keeping track of results and posting video through the completion of event. The USA Today article is a good read, so be sure to give it a look.

Here's a interview with Oregon coach Vin Lananna just prior to heading to Arkansas.
