Completely controlled race by Graham. Closed really well. Congratulations to him on making the finals in his Olympic debut.

Young, assuming he's even a little healthy would beat Blanks every time. Blanks may be good but I don't see him recovering and improving his times by the time outdoors roll around, plus Young just broke the 3, 5, and 10k records for the NCAA, showing his versatility in the distance events and still being able to close super hard (54 last 400 split in the 3k), he is crazy fast and in insane shape so he wins everyday in my book

Is this response from indoor season?
Nico got his ass handed to him by Parker Wolfe at NCAAs and you think if the 3 of them lined up in a non-paced 5k, Nico would win?
Less than a year ago, Graham beat Nico at XC Nats by 30 seconds and then got injured
Healthy, although Nico is better in the 10k, the 5k is closer competition than you’re letting on.
Graham’s in the final now and could potentially 1) break Nico’s NCAA 5k record and/or 2) place higher than Nico did in the 10 lol

I may be wrong but I believe he is also the youngest participant in the 5k.

Biniam Mehary is 17. Dawit Seare is 19. Addisu Yihune is 21. Graham is 22.
Can people just be happy about the two young-gun US distance runners instead of hacking one or the other? It is possible - just be a happy person. They are both great and good luck to the two of them

Let’s just be excited Nico, Graham, and Wolfe are looking like three Grant Fisher level talents. It’ll all depend on who stays healthy and develops the most over the next three years how LA 2028 goes
Did you cheer for Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers?

I would've liked to see Parker Wolfe in the 5K final as well, at that pace. Just to see what he could do, but it didn't work out that way, obvi.
