SUPER SATURDAY! 2025 NCAA Outdoor Champs -- Day 4

what a kick by Willis! came from WAAAAYYY back

Rose ran out of energy again

Michaela Rose 56.1-63.4. Whyyy.

86 at 600.

3 inevitabilites: Death, Taxes, and one of the Stanford girls springing an upset at nationals

Steven Point High, wut wut, interesting stat, John Anderson.

Well at least LSU's baseball team won tonight...

So happy for Willis.

Bassong nearly blew up her race with a seemingly predetermined move. Fortunately there was a tiny area to sneak through. I’m not sure why Rose can’t adjust to go out in 58…

Kulichenko has taken two jumps at 2.00 but missed both. One attempt left.

Not an upset. Thats Roisin Willis. Shesnaleeady won one national championship in the 800, and has been a finalist every time since starting college.

I was thinking the same thing. A 57.5 first lap would do her wonders.

That race was incredible. Had to be one of the best of the meets.

Jesus take the wheel

I’m happy for her and I hope the haters became triggered.

Does she have problems with rounds? And if so why did she choose to run the semi so hard?

Hunter was stalking and almost pulled it off, but Willis had the final say.

First time I’ve seen Hunter run. The head sway seems to be working, but could she be even faster if she can do less sway?

At this point, I feel like there’re some coaching issues here. I saw her run one where she didn’t go to the lead and it went poorly…but that’s not the right adjustment. It’s leading but controlling the race at your pace. Frontrunning is highly effective in the 800, it’s just not when you hit the gas the entire first 600. Hard first 150, and ease it back the next 350 at least. You can see how Moraa, Wanyonyi, Arop, Keely do it in variety of ways. Stop watching Wesley Vazquez and Natoya Goule tape.

Here come the 400m studs.
