Kennedy's 19 Year Old Fieldhouse Record Falls at IU . . . Indiana Runs Strong

results link?

different track, same fieldhouse.

they also completely annihilated Purdue in a dual meet last week also.

They peak early. No worries, they'll be in the shitter by Big 10s.

That's some good athlete development, too. While these guys were very solid in HS, there are a lot of 4:12/9:02 (Bayer) and 4:14/9:06 (Poore) guys who never make it to this level (and those were 1600m and 3200m times, not full mile/2-miles).

Every race was completey setup as time trials on one of the fastest tracks ever run on. Wait until they actually have to race!

Will this be a bigger season of burn-out than XC? They are Big Tem ranked currently 1-8 in the mile (all under 4:10) and 1-4 in 3000 (2 under 8) and #1 in 800 as well.

remember when xavier had athletes in all the invitational sections and they sucked in all of them? their HC must be a great liar...

Flotrack wasn't able to make it to this meet. However, we set up a coverage page and Kyle Johnson of IU was able to get some footage. Right now the Invite 3000 on the Mens side isn't up, I hope it will be soon. Check back there regularly and maybe it will pop up at some point.

7:55 and 7:57 are great college times no matter when during the season they are run. However, there isnt another team in the nation that has ran 3 meets by January 23rd. You have to wonder when they actually do workouts if they are racing every weekend in January and February. My guess is that they are cranking speed and anaerobic work already and this is about all we will see out of them this year. Like I said though, 7:55 and 7:57 are good at anytime of the year, especially for two local walk on athletes.

I figured Hubers would be under 4:00 by now. Or at least knocking on the door.

Doesnt matter how well Indiana runs or performs in sports they are always loosiers to me. POTFH!
