Show me where i'm wrong. JSerra runners consistently medal and podium at the state meet. Their boys placed 2nd as a team last year.
You can dislike how they recruit/other stuff but it's an objectively good program that gets results.
Gonna have to connect the dots for me on how their 2nd place finish last year, which was secured solely by two field athletes, has any bearing on their track athletes’ ability to peak correctly.
Particularly when the guy who coaches said track athletes has historically displayed an almost pathological lack of comprehension of periodization.
That said, I genuinely hope I’m wrong and that Morales does run faster this year. The fact that he’s only a sophomore and probably still physically developing means there’s a good shot. But having kids run gaudy times in March that they struggle to duplicate the rest of the spring has long been a Chase Frazier calling card.
But what do I know, I’m just a hater.
I guess I can't say anything other than wait and see but their girls have done well. That 4x800 squad is no joke.
Some interesting results on the distance side of things.
Robar of Newport Harbor the real deal with the 16/8 double win. Barker in the 1600 “only” 4:55? Gotta imagine her second half of Arcadia 3200 was close to that.
Nice win by Hernandez in the boys 1600. No sign of his teammate Noonan, though?
Morales seemingly going backward in for the second weekend in a row, anyone with insight there?
Wilson leading JSerra onslaught in girls 3200, wonder if more of that squad will jump ship to her coach.
OC Champs has always been a tough meet to get a read on, but this year seems especially murky. Onward to league and the post season death march, I suppose.

How come you didn't put Wilson line in caps? Seems like that was the hook you put the bait on on this whole post.
