Mile is Featured Event at Snowshoe Open

The mile could well be the featured event at tonight's Snowshoe Open at the University of Minnesota. Several well known names are entered as the U of M men's team plays host to many of the MIAC schools in their last meet before next weekend's Big Ten Championships in Madison, WI. Sean Hartnett is scheduled to be there for DtB providing photos.

U of M All American Chris Rombough, Hamline's Brandon Gleason, the U of M's Eddie Kibira, and Dan Greeno of Bethel are all in the first heat of the mile, which is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. A full schedule and results of the meet are available on Apple Raceberry JaM's site here. Other meet highlights could be the men's 60 meters featuring U of M junior All American Ibrahim Kabia, who was third in last year's Big Ten meet. The 60 heats are right before the mile at 5:42 p.m. Kabia is in heat number three. The final is set for 6:30 p.m..
