Shalane, I hope you have a relationship with the Old Fox, Coach Henes. Call her up and tell her this and see what she says. Look at Henes' response to State's 8th place, after winning a three-peat. What she wanted to do was cement into everyone's mind that NC State has the number one 1-2 low stick in the nation, that she wanted to give her veteran champion Brooke Rauber a chance to run the greatest race of her life, if she wanted to, and to give four Baby Wolfies championship experience: Angelina, Bethany, Kate and Ellie Shay. Of course, there wasn't' much pressure on the Pack in this, rebuilding year. Still, she knew more or less in advance the outcome, and that was what they executed, to the pleasure of Coach Henes, and also to possible, emerging assistant, Katelyn Tuohy, as she expressed, in a nuanced way, in the post-race. Check it out. By the way, next year the Pack will have the opportunity of welcoming Sadie Engelhardt. The point of knocking off the Negative Nancy stuff is because that is NOT the emotion you want your ladies to take away from the experience. They should be proud that they are the fifth best team in the USA, not just out of the 32 or so teams at the meet, out out of the several hundred other teams who didn't even qualify. Every one of the Ducks tried their best and deserve congratulations from all of us. Shake it off, Shalane, and better luck next time.
@@Zenabu-c1t Shalane's American. People from her hometown of Marblehead, MA traditionally have a very distinct Boston accent, which is a lot more noticeable in interview footage from her teens and 20s as opposed to now.
Unfiltered there from Shalane.... and tells it 100%. Great job coach/team.
Very good interview
I appreciate Shalane's willingness to talk, and dedication to XC! Thank you, keep grinding, keep loving.
I wondered where she was!!
