Trevor Stewart. Dude is legit! So is his teammate Randolph Ross.

From what I can tell, that makes them the third fastest team in NCAA history?!?!?!

Those dudes were flying. So cool to see a small school destroy everyone like that. They've been quickly turning into a powerhouse in the sprints.

College Station under a severe thunderstorm watch until 2am. Any updates on what their plans are for a competition time schedule tomorrow? Men in morning women in evening?

NCA&T has had a lot of talent for a long time. But yeah, it's definitely coming together for them.

I found an all-time list for college track and field. Their time today puts them #3 all-time behind USC and TXA&M. My god. That's outstanding!

the new schedule is out. gonna be a busy day

I did not watch the meet last night. But looking at results I see there is a run-off today between several teams in the East men's 4x400m. Anyone know why?

The lights went out during the race. The 2nd heat finished the last 3 laps in the dark. Correct times were taken by Lynx. No protest was filed. The head ref decided it was unfair to run in the dark, so he invited the last 5 teams to rerun the race at noon today. These teams could displace the last three teams now in the NCAA meet.

Sam tanner is done. Peaking for olympics or just washed up?

Yeah not sure. He hasn't looked good in anything since that 3:34 5 months ago. Was it just a one time thing?

Nice to see the West Prelims able to start on time.

Good start for the Pac 12 in the distances, as 3 Ducks and 2 Cougars are the auto-qualifiers out of heat 1 of the 1500M.

If the Olympic trails are run on a 300m track, watch out!

After the weather issues yesterday, interesting to me they think they have the luxury to have the track dormant for over 45 minutes between the mile and 110M hurdles. I'd think they'd want to get everything in as quick as possible just in case weather comes in later, which I believe is common in Texas this time of year.

Anyone think of a reason they'd want to do this?

Many of the sprinters are doubling and tripling...

I just had a random thought. I find it a little odd that the WEST regional is being run at a school and aired on the network of the SOUTHEASTERN Conference.

Carry on.

Here is video of when the lights went out in Jacksonville:

10.00 (+1.6) for Oregon's Micah Williams in the 100m.

Wow. NCAAs is gonna be insane.

Brandon Miller 1:45.57

Isaiah Jewett 1:45.60

crazy finish. Miller keeps getting faster....

But that 1:47 by Hunter looked way way way too easy.

Anyone know what the 110 Hurdles protest in the West was, and why the 400 Hurdles are under review?
