A wheel and 4 watches is what I'd like it to be - which it is.

I can't spell and PSU can't get it done in June. Look it up. Does that make you feel better?
No DMR in June!
Thanks for the Duck love.
I didn't want to post about it before the race, but I knew Fleet wasn't anchoring two weeks ago. And I knew they wouldn't win.
Penn Relays is a huge deal, lots of pressure, real emotional, and you need a total stud to win it. Especially that relay.
You need a 3:55 guy, who can run with emotion. None of the Duck guys are quite there time wise yet. They may be capable, they just haven't done it yet.
The word is that all their training is aimed at "championship season," they've done little sharpening or speed work...so it will be interesting to see how the season ends up and how many of these guys have PB's by seasons end.
And per your recap...the slowing down on the 800's...what was up with that? Either go for it and give your guy the lead, or what's the point? Clearly didn't work.
Back to the drawing boards on that, Mr. Powell!
PS...that was an Oregon school record.
Traditionally we haven't run as many relays as the East Coast.
It's nice that the Vin/Post Vin program gets to send the kids out to these things.
Oregon has kids in Penn, Corvallis, and Stanford this weekend.
I think that is the first time we've had kids running in 3 meets over one weekend.
The kids today have it better than they may know.

How many PSU middle distance runners have ever made it to an NCAA final in June?
Keep it up, George. Nobody's listening.
Really? To last poster, you are right how many times can you trash a program that is about 10x better now than it ever was production wise, BY far
They have two guys that can spit out 4 minute efforts when it counts at any time, three reliable 800M guys every time as well

Old Georgie Porgie has been notably quiet of late.
I kind of like it.

It's over.
Those two teams were pretty much clear. Nova tried to get back in it as did Bayer from way back.
Anchor splits. Elkaim went 59 and 201. At 800, he just stopped and made Creese take it. Creese didnt mind. At bell (304ish) Bayer had gotten kind of close but there was no doubt. Creese crushed them last 200. 26 flat. 359.
To "A Duck" or any others,
Any insight into why Elkaim pulled up the way he did at 800? I understand not wanting to lead for the whole race, "keeping your powder dry" for the final kick and all that, but the way he did it seemed absurd. For whatever "momentum" is worth, he seemed to lose all that. While he maintained contact, it seemed like his racing was over right then.
Anyone know where to find the video?
