    TFRRS | Berenice Cleyet-Merle – Track and Field Results & Statistics
    Link:www.tfrrs.org/athletes/7491143.html

    Berenice Cleyet-Merle has pbs of 2:03 for 800, 4:13 for 1500, and 4:31 for the mile this season, which would put her at THIRD in the mile and thirteenth in the 800 on the DI performance list.

    But here's the kicker: she runs for some sh1tty DII school in Indianapolis and her times are 2 seconds and 12 seconds faster in the 800 and mile, respectively, than the next closest competitor in DII. And she's only ran in one national caliber meet, where she beat a sizeable number of pros and all but two DI runners.

    She's also French, ran 5 events at her conference meet (won them all), started college in 2015 and is 27...

    Wait, if she's THIRD in the mile on the D1 performance list, then the best NCAA miler is in Division 1. Or is there someone else you're not telling us about. Someone from D3 or NAIA?

    She lost to Mackay and Heymach in that 4:31 race. She has slower PRs than both, and has never beaten either. She's a great runner but I'm not sure where the evidence for her being "The best NCAA miler".

    D1 national mile winner is 26 y/o. The entire BYU team is not “college aged” neither. Get your facts straight, none of the elite is.

    Imagine being this dumb. Both grammatically and factually. Your name is very fitting.
