"Freshman Trayvon Bromell headlined the day by turning in a time of 20.23 to win the 200-meter dash. That is the sixth-fastest time in Baylor history at that distance with all five faster times belonging to former world-record holder Michael Johnson."

I remember watching a young chap, maybe 17 at the time, yes, still in high school, and this was about 25 years ago sprint halfway around the track. His time, a FAT, was faster than the chap you mention. I think they gave him a 20.0

Maybe closer to 30 years ago.

He was perhaps 18 - i think he originally given 20.0 but later given 20.13- Roy Martin - - his was the third consecutive national 200 record set that weekend in Austin. I think Kerr was another. Still standing.
Wind Gauge reading was 3.3 m/s. The corrected time is about 20.55.
Not what was claimed. An honest 20.23 would have been #9 on the Wold Junior all-time list.

His 20.13 is listed as National prep record. FAT and legal.

BS. The official high school record for 200 meters is 20.13, but it was set by Roy Martin 20 years ago, and Baylor is not claiming different. Bromwell is listed by T&FN as the high school leader for 2013 in the 100 at 10.27, but never ran anywhere near 20.13 legal, and he didn't do it today.

First 20.0 then 20.13 quit the BS while you are ahead

I said Roy Martin asshool - it was originally listed as 20.0 and later 20.13

Note the phrase "in Baylor history."
Baylor history.
Any discussion of anything other than 200m performances in the history of Baylor University track is irrelevant to the point made in the OP.
Class dismissed.

It was an honest time. Just too much wind. This should show how hard it is to run a fast 200m.
This bodes well for Eugene. Between Kiryu, Bromell and some of the Caribbean sprinters like Zharnell Hughes, Michael O'Hara and Jonathan Farinha, the World Junior sprints are going to be on another level this year. Given the right conditions, we may see a few sub-10's.

Dear SAT flunkers- nope
NOW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT ROY MARTIN
Read more:
http://www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=5704343#ixzz2wkqn7XGfto many pippis peapeaing in the pot.
Martin was given a 20.0 because for some odd reason the Texas State Meet back in those days used hand timed as their results. They had a FAT timer there and Martin finished in 20.13. He later equaled that mark running 20.13 again to finish second at the US TAC Champoionships. Amazing he still has the record after nearly 30 years.
No one else set the National Record in the days prior to Martin. Joe Deloach posted a 20.44 at his state meet the night before if my memory serves me correct.
