PROVO For a while, it seemed like BYU might be the only school west of Texas to play college football and most other sports in the fall while the COVID-19 pandemic surged across America.
The Cougars were standing alone on an island until other conferences backtracked on their previous commitments to cancel or postpone the fall season and push it to the spring, most notably the Big Ten and the Pac-12 conferences.
The result was a historic football season, but the accolades didn t stop there. Between a national title in cross country and a top-20 finish in track and field and everything in between the Cougars had a historic season.
Conner Mantz and teammate
Casey Clinger finished eighth and 12th, respectively, in the men s 5,000-meter final Sunday morning at historic Hayward Field.
Mantz, the reigning NCAA cross country champion who prepped at Sky View, moved up from 11th with four laps to go and briefly led the pack. That pace, which has often been described as the Mantz zone, helped propel Nike s Paul Chelimo to first in 13:26.82 seconds.
Nike s Grant Fisher finished second in 13:27.01 and Woody Kindcaid rounded out the three-man Olympic squad in the event in 13:27.13.
Mantz finished in 13:32.69 for his second top-eight finish at the U.S. trials. He also finished fifth in the 10,000-meter final.
