Biggest Recruits In The OUA

[Ronald]

now that we are in august. i'm just curious to know about the biggest recruits to stay in ontario. also if any schools picked up some new talent.

[Delisle]

novakowski to queens
jared thomson also to queens
they will have a solid young nucleus in place

russell christie and scott strikwerda are nice additions for UWO
former ofsaa steeple champ jared townsend also headin to western

[new recruit]

Who will be sporting gryphon outfits for the first time??

[Brooksy]

I haven't got any updates on our recruits in a while, but as far as I know, Gareth Miller, Derek Snider and Pat Cook are all coming to cow town this fall on the mens side. There were a lot more maybe's but I think moults would know more on the subject.

[torontofan]

any new faces for u of t? i hear they picked up a pretty good highschool kid!

[RunnerPeace]

well where the hell is brad ofsaa going, i heard somethin about alabama or Niagara (he has really decent 5k-marathon pbs recently) so he will be a fine addition now that hes in good shape where are ya oin to school dude?

progress u rule!

[Delisle]

brad_ofsaa is goin to Trent I believe ?!

[Huskies]

From Canada West. Chad Friel (15:14) is going to the U of S this fall. Chris Belof tranfered to the U of S from the U of R, but has to sit out one year. 2nd year Dave Sorenson had taken 2:30 off his 10k PB to run 36:06. Finally Brian Pffeferle has come back to the huskies too this fall.

Um, I'm going to U of T, and as the name suggests, I'd be happy to run 35.

So, not me. I'd be surprised if Toronto picked up anyone, the largest city in Canada apparently isn't as much fun as London or Guelph.

In seriousness, Guelph really cleaned up with Miller and Snyder.

Always happy to partake in the OU/ CIS XC speculation. Paper tigers are being formed all over the country as the optimism of August begins to fluorish! If so and so can drop 3 mins from his 10k, Johnnie McGraw is declared eligible, and Fatty Albert drops 30 lbs we might squeeze into the top 10...

U of T has several new arrivals on the Men's side.

In the now eligible category is former Warrior Jose Carvalho (3:54), along with former Lakehead runner Nate Jowett (4:02).

Rumor has it a HS guy from K-W who has run 4:05-7 is on the way as well.

[U of T]

That would be Etienne Bredin(1:59, 4:05, 8:45) and yes, he is going to U of T.

[Trent CONNECTION]

Brad_Ofsaa + StarsandStripes at TRent..hahah That'll be a great soap opera!!!!

[Max]

Guelph is getting Miller, Snider, Cook, Doharty(steeple 6:10), Roundell(1:58) and I might be missing one...

That's all I know...

peace!

[cooker]

as far as i know brad is going to Niagra Uni and will be racing with the likes of hortian and the rest of the iona squad. im not sure if its true but thts wat i hear from brad_ himself

take it easy
Pat

[ncaaguy]

ya i know some guys on the team in niagara he was recruited and beleive were completing a deal- hes got good potential with long distance ...but trent, i dont know about that, he got into queens so if he stays in canada he;ll probably go there.


where is brian bowden, jared thomson, john parrot all going?

[Delisle]

jared thomson to queens

[billy bob]

Shit, it's August 3rd so Brad has obviously made his decision about where is he going to school, that being Trent University so don't everyone get their panties in a bunch. He'll still be in the country and at the meets for us all to laugh at.

[Andrew]

Brad is goin to Trent, and John Parrot is returning to do an extra semester of highschool.

[Imma Observer nodda sheeza]

What about Moulton the man himself? Is he gonna make another shitty comeback? talk about overrated!

[Kyle]

What is your problem? It was not his choice to be injured. Also you are off topic. The thread topic is "Biggest Recruits in the OUA". Why don't you worry about your upcoming season.

[Hutch]

Imma Observer nodda sheeza - its apparent you're not an elite runner yourself, otherwise you wouldn't have to come in here and bash other people in order to try and make yourself feel better. Show a little respect and grow up.

Hutch

[Chris Moulton]

I'll I can say is I am glad I have guys like Greg and Kyle on my team then individuals like you. As for Guelph recruits, I am really excited to have Derek, Pat, Josh, Seamus and Gaerth joining the fold we were really blessed with our recruits last year who are all great runners and more importantly great people and I know the guys and girls this fall will be no different.

[Thomas]

Amen to that Hutch... this is exaclly why there should not be any guest posting... you get dip shits like this IMMA guy who is hiding behind some name and who probably can't run to the fridge to get a beer, cracking on class act such as Moult, so he has had some tough luck with injuries, give him a break I know what kind of a person he is and how good of a runner he is and I can tell you this... if he didn't run into injury problems you wouldn't be worthy of tying up his spikes let alone being in the same race... so grow up and get the hell off this site.

[shame]

on all of u...why do we have to resort to such acts of aggression thomas..grow up...who cares if a guy makes fun of moulton hes not as good as u guys make him out to be, don't let it get to u and stop crying about it.

[outsider]

actually, what is a shame is that moulton has had about a dozen stress fractures in the past 3-4 years. think about how hard it would be to get into shape when you can only train 2 months before having to take 6-8 weeks off. moulton is a good kid who has lots of potential.

anyways, i thought this thread was about recruits.
i heard christie was going to simon fraser?

[Thomas]

I'm not crying about it I'm just saying it's stupid how people love to come on here behind some name and make fun of people I would have said what I said regardless of who it was... And telling me to grow up for standing up for one of my friends, well sorry I guess next time I'll let unknown people make fun of my friends at will... and yes it is a shame about moult and his stress fractures... Hey moult have you thought about drinking more milk lol j/k bud...

[Belle]

Someone asked where Brian Bowden is going, well he is heading back to Simcoe for another year of highschool

[sprinters]

what about some of the shorter runners?
does anyone know where the 2/4 runners are headed this fall?

[ryan]

isn't guelph getting a couple transfers this year as well? will they be eligible to compete this year in xc or track??

[Delisle]

russell christie is definitely goin to western

talked to him at ofsaa and there's an article on it somewhere on londonrunner.ca
