Any update on this or on her status at all? She was a no show and a no mention at State's recent meet (http://snaptiming.com/meets/vtinvitational9-25-20/). Same with Starliper. Could we be looking at redshirting, surgery or not? Just want to be sure shes ok really.
No Zachgo either
There was no surgery. That was an internet rumor started right here by an anonymous poster. Tuohy was dealing with some tenderness and apparently did some therapy and rested.
Not sure there is any reason for Tuohy or Starliper to be running races right now. No regionals or anything.

...other than being on the squad of the running team.
I know, I know. It's tactical. But what if college FB coaches made a habit of sitting their stars, even if it was tactical?
It would not bother me at all if they both red shirted. The season is busted to begin with by the pandemic and women's college running is generally an upperclassmen dominated sport.
On the issue of this thread, people are really gullible. It went from here to Youtube and no one stopped and asked for corroboration.
It's a free year of eligibility. Running this fall will not take away eligibility, as announced by the NCAA.
Neither of those runners are serious threats for the USA olympic team (behind Shelby, Karissa, Elise Cranny, Rowbury, Purrier, and several more) so preparing for that isn't an excuse.
The freshman most likely to make the Olympics is Ewert and she's racing. And racing very well.
Even better reason not to rush into racing. Who knew that 18 year distance runners were not threat to making the Olympic team? Loll.

Not a rumor! Surgery
Ok sherlock. :)
Yes she had surgery. Don't be surprised if she never makes top 5.

So what was the surgery and when did she have it? How long was she not running? I just figure you seem pretty informed.
She had plica surgery a few months ago. She is not back running.
I see, so the picture on Instagram posted by NC State of her running on their field was not really her? Or she (and they) risked messing up the surgery for the picture? Interesting.
Hopefully people stop falling for this.
and this interview from early July is very misleading? https://www.lohud.com/videos/sports/high-school/track/2020/07/08/katelyn-tuohy-named-athlete-year/5392452002/
Think it was established on another thread that she was not in any IG photo at NC State. The person who posted it got it wrong (it wasn't Tuohy).
I have no idea if she had knee surgery or not, but she only volunteered in the interview that she has had knee pain for two years and has taken some time off. Like you I figure she would have mentioned surgery if she had had it, but who knows maybe she did have surgery and preferred to keep it to herself and her coaches. Totally up to her. She's not a pro athlete and doesn't owe any explanations. But the interview in and of itself doesn't prove anything.
No it a was not.

No Tuohy or Starliper this Fall. Take my word for it. Nobody has to redshirt this year since it is a free year for everyone eligibility-wise. That should be enough information for everyone to figure out why they are not running.

You are thinking of the wrong picture in which a tuft of blonde hair behind a number of runners was supposedly Tuohy. I posted the pic from the NC State Instagram "story" which showed her running (by herself) on a football field. Perhaps that in itself says something as the other pics they have posted such as Starliper were on a track.
Dont feed the trolls.
