Unlike the Bryan Clay Invitational, there isn't necessarily one singular meet that will be responsible for producing all of the nation's top distance marks this weekend. Instead, you'll find that the NCAA's best talents are going to be more spread out throughout the nation come Friday and Saturday.


With our Payton Jordan Invitational preview in the works, we wanted to ensure that a few other top meets also got some attention. Here are a handful of predictions for the most competitive distance races that are taking place this weekend...
