Men: Only qualified 1 athlete to the Championships (Jeff See in the 1500m). If he wins the event the team will get 10 points towards the championship team standings.... last year 5th place scored 27 points and 32 teams scored 10 or more points. It is mathematically impossible for the men to finish in the top 20.
Women: Qualified in 3 events (4x100m relay, Jenna Griffin in the 400m, Veronica Jatsek in the hammer). The only way the women can finish in the top 5 is if they win all 3 events which is highly unlikely (UCLA finished 5th last year with 30 points). They do have a chance at a top 20 finish though... that would vastly surpass any expectations I had for them entering the outdoor season.
