JADEN JEFFERSON 10.01 WTFFFF?????????????? WHAT WAS THAT FIRST SEMI HEAT?? It's almost too good to be true.
Just got back to my hotel after day 1 of the state meet. Holy crap that was INSANE. The semi times ran today were as fast, if not FASTER than final winning times from the last three state meet finals. Even the 1600 was blazing, like 7 guys under 4:10.
Bruh... Will Greene just straight up didn't go to the state meet. He didn't declare I guess. Seems like he got too tired after running 47's every other meet for some reason

I'm ngl you may be right. That entire heat seemed a little TOO fast... especially since every following heat was around the 10.4-10.5 range
Plus, he qualified for the 200m in 20.99. How can you almost run sub 10.00 but can barely crack 21? Doesn't add up to me.
It was confirmed to be a faulty timing system for that race. The officials in the announcers booth that were timing it separately had the winning time in that race as 10.3.
Don’t matter tho, this is huge for the Placer program. We haven’t gotten a state qualifier in track in distance since 2018 with Adam Fragola in the 1600 and I would’ve though Julian Doak in 2023 would’ve qualified considering he had the 3rd fastest 1600 in the section at the time but he just didn’t have a good day at section finals :(

After being out there yesterday I’m trying not to get my hopes up that things will be even faster today. No way they beat those times in the sprints.
- I missed the 1600 because of traffic, but i'm shocked by the times it took to advance. You basically had to run 4:09 on the guys side to run tomorrow - insane! Low 4:50, high 4:40 on the girls side. Field is open. My pick is on Kinga Czajkowska on the girls side. Nasty kick.
- Jasir Fontenot - what a talent, my goodness. He doesn't even have good legspeed, which is the scariest part, his steps between hurdles are just flawless.
- All but one of the favorites made it through to the final in the b400. Smith might still run today considering Hart pulled up in the 200 prelims. Still 5 guys in the final who have run 46 this year already.
- There is nothing I could say about the 100 that hasn't already been addressed. That said, Sizemore is easily the favorite on the girls side for today.
- Insane depth in the 800. Thank you 4x800! 1:51.81 to make it on the guys side, 2:10.59 on the girls side. Multiple under 1:51 on the prelims day. I'm wondering what today is gonna look like - waterfall means they won't be able to get out fast, and running 1:49 the day after a 1:50 is a tough ask for anyone, but surely with a field like this someone will get excited and drag them through in 52.
- Girls 300h is set up to be INSANE! Herbst, Fontenot, and Edwards. Winning time will easily be under 40.
- b200 is set to be anyone's race. Very, very close, but Cy Lugo really passed the eye test. He is still my pick for today. Anyone else realize how insane it is that Prince will podium in the 100, 110, and 200?
- Girls 4x400 is gonna be great. Carlsbad always makes thing interesting, but I suspect Wilson will be far too ahead to catch. Morgan put down a relaxed 52.7 last night so I wonder how she will do today.
- Boys 4x400 depth is insane. 24 teams under 3:20, and you run slower than 3:15.1 and you are out of the final. I don't even know who the favorite is. Whoever got the best night of sleep, I guess. I expect multiple teams to be under 3:10 honestly. The 4x400 is always the event that people drop crazy amounts of time in the the state finals, even though its the last event on the second day. It's the damn 4x400!
Kinga Czajkowsha in 4:44. Maybe Braelyn Combe. Kinga has a strong kick and is a smart racer, probably a little more fresh that Combe who has to survive qualifying through the SS.
Conor Lott in 4:05. Maybe Grant Miller. Kind of anyone's race here, like in the 800m.
800m:
Anne Elise Packard in 2:06. Honestly, I don't follow girls 800m so I don't know anything lol.
Josiah Bowman in 1:49. So excited for this race, I feel like it's going to be such a bloodbath. Really no idea who will win it, they all have a shot.
3200m:
Rylee Blade in 9:58. Feels kind of predictable. Rest of the group will probably hang around the 10:1x.
Evan Noonan in 8:48. Probably go through in 4:28-4:30. Last lap will be sub 57. I think a lot of people will be under 9 but it'll be a giant group finishing in the 8:50s.
