I wish I could have appreciated what was going on back then. T&FN has a page on Galen Rupp's senior season and his 5000/10000 double at nationals. They mention that Nyambui did the double 3 times 80, 81 and 82, dominance. <br />The only reason I ever got a chance to put on a college uniform was that UTEP got the death penalty a couple of years before I got there and everybody left.
