BOULDER — Dani Jones remembers asking herself a simple question as the NCAA Indoor Championships distance medley relay event unfolded in front of her last month in College Station, Texas.
"I was the last leg, and watching our team run, we were still in it every lap around the track," Jones said. "Every time they came by us, we were still in the race. When (teammate) Sage (Hurta) was about to get the baton, I thought, 'Why not us? We have a great opportunity and two good last legs could make it happen.'"
To be honest, it was a question not many observers would have thought to ask.
