Yawn!
Ohio State track must really be struggling to be reaching for this. Hart field didn't break OSU record. He moved to number 2 still behind Chris Sanders. Says so in exact same article.
Im tired, someone explain how he broke a 77 year old record and still only be 2nd on the all time Ohio List. Is number 1 indoor or something?

I assume that means the record was set indoor.

About 50 guy have jumped longer indoors sans the Texas Maria Effect.
As a matter of fact about 20 guys have a jump 5 cms longer as their second mark in a series.
It's a nice school stat but only shows Ohio State has not had a great jumper in a long while
an 8.15m jump is fantastic, also the fact that a 77yo school record was broken, would put it past the yawn category.
Congrats to Hartfield, if he was a miler this would be huge.......
Joe Greene.
It wasn't wind-aided? Darvis Patton ran 9.75 there with a tornado at his back.
0.9 for the wind
8.15 got you the bronze medal at the Olympics this past year.
The long jump record at Harvard goes back to 1921.
Nice jump for the kid and it has to count as the school record but breaking it by 1/4" on a lightening fast runway with event specific spikes on a perfect weather day is still inferior to Owens' mark because he did his in basic old school spikes on a cinder runway.
