Finnerty Down to Gophers, Badgers for College

The Star-Tribune's Dean Spiros is reporting today that Burnsville's 2007 Class AA cross country champ Rob Finnerty has narrowed his college choice to two: Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Finnerty, the 5th fastest 3200 meter runner in Minnesota prep history at 8:55.75, had visited and considered Oregon as well.

According to the Strib story, it sounds like Finnerty is having a tough time making his final choice -- one he still expects to make in the next few weeks.
