What would it feel like to lose to a sophomore at USAs? Quincy / Cooper
I know, right. It is more a testament to how good high schoolers have gotten than any knock on the pros. 4:27 for a woman’s mile this early in the season is really good. I am happy that Rachel won. She has been steadily improving for a while. I am glad she got the win.
Agreed. I wonder if moving to Flagstaff really woked out well for her (she used to be with Coope in Blacksburg iirc).
Heres the big one. Could have a ton of guys under but i'm not optimistic, stacked races are rarely fast races. I'm gonna guess 3:56 high FTW from Jackson followed by 2-3 guys under 4. I think we can all agree Webb's record is not gonna happen tonight.
Hey, right on!
Brian Burns goes under. Is this the first sibling pair to both officially go under 4 in HS? Don't think A.Sahlman or the twins ever went under on a full mile.
According to Wikipedia I see no name overlap (until now):
This is a list of American high school students who have run a four-minute mile since the feat was first accomplished in 1964. The first person to run the mile (1,760 yards, or 1,609.344 metres) in under four minutes was Roge...
Iowa high school track fan here. Quentin has looked a little off all track season. He won multiple Drake relays and State titles but was consistently slower than last year. I can’t confirm, but suspect nagging injuries.

Same here. I think he is exhausted after state. Running 4 events is tough for anyone

Yeah but he was consistently slower all season. Just not his outdoor campaign.

He and a couple other Iowa kids fell into the early indoor trap of traveling and running super fast in Jan/Feb. With a little restraint and common sense, all would have finished the season much faster. It takes a strong relationship with talented kids and their parents to to gain the trust of experienced coaching and hold back until the right time. That'll get ironed out soon enough. No need to prove anything else this summer. Just get healthy and start the gradual freshman buildup for fall training. Im hoping he redshirt 1st year. Im dissapointed they pulled Brody L redshirt. In good shape but not enough experience for running rounds. Wasted freshman eligibility. WU20 maybe another objective though.

I thought that redshirts were no longer going to be a thing. 5 years for everyone.
