    Ends up the one in front with the funky ear rings, German Fernandez, who recently won the 2009 NCAA Men's 1500 Meter Championship, set a junior indoor world record for the mile running 3:55.02, and is one of three finalists for The Bowerman Award given to the best amatur runner, broke his ankle about half way thru and still finished 97th.

    Ouch. And OSU still won the team le with him being injured.
