Citius: "Former UW Huskies Luke Houser & Nathan Green will now be future Team USA teammates, as the top finishers from last week’s 1500m at USAs knock out the World Indoor standard, clocking identical marks of 3:34.91 at the PRTC Indoor Classic. Houser gets the win by a hair."

"After finishing second in the 800m at last week’s U.S. Indoor Championships, Sean Dolan still needed a qualifying time to make the roster for World Indoors.
Six days later, he gets the time and books his ticket, winning the 800m at the PRTC Indoor Classic in 1:45.41."

re: Muller's Ratchet

Very glad to see them get the marks. Would have sucked if they were passed over on this, especially as I believe Houser/Green already had mile equivalents this season.

This meet was held at Penn where Steve Dolan is the coach. Very interesting.

Very interesting??? I would say super cool. How cool must it be to have your son qualify for the world championships on your home track. Glad the dad was there to see it.

Got to hand it to Penn. A couple times now, they've provided the facilities for pulling together a last chance meet that meets all the criteria for world athletics.

I'm not sure what strings need to be pulled, but they seem to get it done when it is needed.

Nope. Green's 3:50.31 at Washington is only worth 3:37.18.

just so we're clear, you expect everyone to believe that the conversion from 1500 to Mile is 13.13s for 109m? oooohkay, buddy, whatever you say. Might want to retake 6th grade math and check those numbers again.

Yeah, it's more like 3:33.

Just so we're clear, you have no idea how it all works. There is no such thing as a conversion, doofus. There are WA scoring tables that are used to find equivalent performances. Learn something before you shoot off your uninformed mouth.

The scoring tables have 3:50.13 as equivalent to 3:32.7-3:33. Just so we're clear.

re: Maximus1552

Just so we're clear, Green'a 3:50.31 was at Washington, which is not "short track"

You score it on the regular (outdoor) table, which is 1197 points (3:50.33, the nearest slower time).

1197 points for a short track 1500 is 3:37.18

I won't charge for this lesson, first one's free!

re: llort

i think its a combination of facility access, a TON of great athletes in the area (collegiate/post-collegiate athletes, sub elites, etc.) and good timing
