And Cook is the fastest freshman in history. Buy somebody still says he wouldn't have recruited her. What did that Tuohy girl do freshman year? How about Valby? How about Roe?
cook is a 20 year old freshman.. tuohy was 20 years old just days ago and shes a graduating senior lol

This is a weird debate but sure I’ll join in on who the better recruit is. Cooke was injury prone all through high school & relied heavily on cross training for fitness & (let’s face it) low body weight. It was hard for her to put a whole season together let alone a year. I agree that her running form is part of the problem plus other factors that she might be trying to correct right now. If she’s experiencing REDS then I wonder for how long. Her parents were competitive runners & one would think they’d have gotten on top of it early if they thought it was an issue. touhy had injury hiccups but never any fractures that I’m aware of. She was always big on gym work, even in high school, & has always looked strong & healthy to me. it’s really a no brainer

Tuohy is a junior- academically a senior but graduating? What do you mean? That would mean you anticipate or have heard she’s done w college after track? and saying she was 20 days ago is disingenuous - she’s 21 now.
With AP credits, and taking summer courses, it's easy to finish your bachelors degree early. The class Sr, Jr etc. reflects the sports eligibility level, not where they are academically. Chmiel has long completed her BS and is working on masters. Touhy apparently will finish her ba in 12/23. If she remains longer at NC st, she would also start on a masters. Hays, Seymour and Moreno are all grad students now.

Ok there is no evidence that Natalie Cook was often injured or even ever badly injured in High School, she literally has like no breaks in her racing profile except for COViD and even then she traveled to the music city distance carnival for one of the meets you had too test for in order compete.
There are no Milesplit or any other reports of significant injuries at the time. She raced heavily in and even before high school in youth meets and indoor meets. but didn’t really get into the National meets/superstar status until 12th grade, in 11th grade she only qualified for the Texas State track meet in one event and didn’t place and was like 8th place in cross. This is a case of rapid improvement one year, not just a case of constant injuries at least not severe injuries.

milesplit profiles are deceiving. injured kids will race, because the talented will have great relative success even at 50%.
look her up, read the history. you will know that she has had issues.
Cook is 19 and Tuohy is 21. Tuohy is in her prime and nowhere near world class while Cook ran the fastest U20 time in history. She is faster than Tuohy.

Sarah Disanza ran the fastest US U20 5k, indoors 15:20. She has the indoor 5k record.

I just have not seen evidence of that in the 3 races they competed in this past few months
Parker Wolfe and Natalie Cook broke the U20 American records at 5k as Ky Robinson and Annie Rodenfels getting wins with Katelyn Tuohy settling for 2nd in 15:15.

You must have missed the threads were the letrsun article was identified as incorrect. Wikipedia did not have Disanza's correct time listed when Cook ran hers, but it has been corrected. It is correct on World Athletics.
Won the 5000 meters at the Boston University Opener (12/6) in a time of 15:20.57 to break the University of Wisconsin, Big Ten record and American junior record in the event
Who cares who wins? you are none of them, would love to see them win races and break records. Right now,there is no NCAA girl faster than Tuohy. Will Natalie Cook beat Tuohy? maybe. But who cares. They are human beings, not cars.
This stupid fanboys discussions on idiots favoring their "horse" and giving boring dumb arguments. At the end of the day, who ever has the fastest time at a specific race is the winner, whether he has a better PB or not. The rest is dung for idiotic fanboys.
