5 have rated No. 1 twice: Eric Hulst (’75 & ’76), Alan Scharsu (’77 & ’78), Dathan Ritzenhein (’00 & ’01), Edward Cheserek (’12 & ’13) & Drew Hunter (’15 & ’16)… Hunter, with a No. 3 as a soph, is the only one of that quintet to rate 3 times…
Like the mile, two sets of brothers make the compilation, and both are twins — Mark & Eric Mastalir repeat from the mile, but this event was their best (Eric No. 1, Mark No. 3 in ‘86). Joe & Jim Rosa topped that as juniors in ’10, as they went 1-2 to lead the nation…
Did someone say mile/2M doublers? There have been 11 with a pair of No. 1s: Rich Kimball (’74), Chris Lewis (’89), Andy Maris (’90), Galen Rupp (’04), Mark Matusak (’05), A.J. Acosta (’06), Matthew Centrowitz (’07), Lukas Verzbicas (’11), Grant Fisher (’14), Hunter ’16 & Hobbs Kessler (’21).
