You say that like high school track seasons( the other 2/3rds of the year) don't supremely favor middle distance athletes. You don't need to train for the mile year round. In fact that's usually a bad idea.

Americans have to hit a standard in order to compete at the world championships or olympics.
Yes. That was the reason for my last two sentences. "We will see faster times this year as people will have to chase some standards. That didn't matter last year with no championship. "
This was obviously a down year for the men’s 1500. With Centro getting older, the future doesn’t look promising:
Sam Prakel/Robert Domanic/Izaic Yorks/Johnny Gregorek - I can see this group getting to 3:32-3:34
Craig Engels is wasting his time at NOP. I think he has an incredibly high ceiling and showed a ton of promise in 2016/2017. I could see him developing into a Centro type but is currently training fodder for Murphy.
Clayton Murphy is our next big hope. As Centro rolls-out, Murphy has serious medal potential with his 1:42 800 speed.
Drew Hunter is not a 1500 guy but I could see him getting under 3:34.
Robby Andrews always seemed on the cusp but, as another poster said, he falls into the category of milers at Gregorek’s wedding just messing around.
