Hocker's best 3200 m 1 1/2 years ago in HS was 8:56. Maybe he could have gone a little faster, but still, this is a pretty big step.
He ran like a 3:58 mile last year and had some really solid XC results (low 23's if memory serves). To me those were the big step forwards from being a 4:07 guy in HS. It is nice though to see that he is still improving at a decent clip. I always thought he was a bit better in the 800m than the 5000m but I might have to reconsider if he doesn't drop a 1:48 soon:)
Hocker probably would’ve ran sub 4/8:40 in HS but he never ran any national track meets other than a DMR. All his HS track pr’s happened on Indiana soil. Everything he did his senior year was essentially a time trial as there was no competition in Indiana.
