Do you even follow running? You don't know Pollard or Bosley or Fisher? Are you familiar with NAU or ISU? They did go 1-2 in the NCAA this year.
Who are you guys? If you competed in track you would run 35 seconds per mile slower than your PRs in dual meets? For that week, instead of hard/easy/hard it would be hard/easy/easy/easy/hard. Maybe it wouldn’t make much difference but why would you want to run so ridiculously slow in dual meets? In Running Entertainment, there are meet by meet results for Jeff Nelson and Eric Hulst and they never jogged in any dual meets.
A poster rejected my comment regarding Salazar but it’s almost a universal opinion on LR that he would was a great coach and most posters seemed to think hard interval workouts after racing were beneficial and some even believed they contributed to Hassan’s improvement under Salazar. Now that he’s banned for issues unrelated to workouts, it turns out he was incompetent across the board?
Can you provide results for a single race where one of the top guys at Oregon, Stanford or NAU ran a 15:00?
This is a weird hill to die on. I don't think most people pay particular attention to what elite high schoolers run in dual meets. Most likely, they run slower than their PRs, and maybe sometimes a lot slower.
