Who is making the USA 800m teams this year?

Donavan Brazier with the steel chair about to destroy all these novices.

He's got a month to run the standard to get into trials.

Hoppel, Jewett, Kessler (if he runs, Miller if not)

Mu, Wiley, Hurta-Klecker

Hoppel, Harris, Jewett

Mu, Rose, Akins

Hoppel, Miller, Sahlman

I'll go: Hoppel, Brazier, Jewett & Mu, Hurta-Klecker, and Rose. Dark horses: Clayton Murphy & Allie Wilson.

I did forget about Michaela Rose (and Whittaker/Willis for that matter). Perhaps both Rogers and Wilson don't make the team.

Honestly, I'm rooting for Harris to make the games. He deserves it. He's been playing 2nd fiddle for quite a while, coming up juuust short. I hope he can have a good one.

Hopper, Jewett, Harris

mu, Akins, sage

Kessler? Funny! 😆

Sahlman? Even funnier than Kessler! 😆

I got Hoppel, Harris, and Whitmarsh. Where tf did Sumner go? This should’ve been a Hoppel vs Sumner battle right now. We witness a 1:43 in a college race and didn’t even see him again.

Watch out for my man Cade Flatt

Hobbs gonna qualify in the 15 then run the 8 for fun and qualify for that too.

Does anyone know where Sumner went?

Kate Grace?

If Kessler doesn't qualify for the 1500 I think he could have a chance in the 800. The same could possibly be true for Sahlman as well. The milers would probably recover from the two qualifying rounds a little better than some of the pure 800 runners.

I think Sumner's coach posted in early 2024 that he took off Indoor to prepare for this Outdoors. But not seeing anything so far makes it likely there was a setback.

Sumner had an injury of moderate severity earlier in the year so his coach shut down most of the season seeing that he has ran the standard, but is in the full swing of training right now, he is on strava too. He looks fit. I wouldn’t count him out.

If it’s the same case for Brazier (i’m coming to terms with the fact he may be finished, I really hope not but year after year of injury starts to look like a permanent issue) then I think it’ll be

Brazier, Hoppel, Sumner

If Brazier isn’t going to be healthy this season I think it’s gonna be

Hoppel, Jewett, Sumner
