I know Weldon hates it when I'm negative and don't offer anything upbaet. But I can't help. Normally I'm at the meet on tv. But man is this announcing horrible.
Where was the excitement when the Louisville guy gapped the field in the steeple? But in the end Corrigan was confident. And smart. And the champion.
I really wanted Strand to win, but out of all the ways for him to lose, that was probably the best. Tactics are easier to fix than fitness, and he was absolutely flying the last 150m. I expect USAs to be a whole lot faster than 3:47, so tactics won't matter quite as much (but if he runs in lane 2 for a whole 3:30 race like he did last year he's still cooked). Nailbiter, great race, and of course Washington continues their streak. Awesome run from Green, meaning he, Houser, and Waskom all have 2 titles. Absolutely nuts.
Also great run from Ferenc Kovacs of Harvard in 3rd and Jack Crull in 6th. Birnbaum 7th in his first NCAA final, whether or not that's a good race for him, I think it's great experience for him, and hopefully he does ok at USAs.
Yes. If I'm a Kessler fan, I'm worried seeing Strand close like that.

I know Strand is still a junior but I hope he goes pro. I don't know what he gets out of another year of sit and kicks.
