He was first at NBIN. He was 2nd at the dream mile in awful conditions in 4:05, where Bernie Montoya was behind him and ran 4:01 a week later. Today, he broke the meet record at New Englands with a 1:49.9 800m. With that kind of speed I think UVA have a force at 1500m in the NCAAs... He also seems to be a pretty smart racer...
I was actually talking about this earlier today.
He definitely should have been in the talk for the best miler in the country, but he just never went to meets outside of New England (like Penn Relays or Mt. Sac or something) so no one ever talked about him.
He definitely has a shot at being awesome in college
count on watson to guarantee that never happens
Dude's done nothing but improve all season. Look for him to continue that next year , and he's gonna have rog to run with again
Nah. He's overrated. He'll probably burn out.
In his 1:49.93 yesterday he was 52.0 at 400 and completely solo the whole way.
UVA is gonna be very happy to have him.
