Awesome race. Got really exciting those last 100 meters.
slagowski about to come back and drop a 1:47. Nonetheless this was an amazing race
Results?
Don't have a link, but
1)McGorty 148.58
2)Hunter 148.64
3)Lomong 148.67
great race
US #1-3
came down to a lean at the end!!!
If you are McGorty you are super-stoked right now. You just won the best U.S. HS 800m ever.
Hope lil McGorty goes/gets into Stanford.
Be with his bro (who has had a major breakthrough year) and train with Fisher. DMR would be great with those three and the Aussie 400 m runner.
Slagowski ranked 4th US HS all of a sudden...
When Slagdog went 1:48.7 he won by like 5 seconds. He certainly has at least a 1:47 low in him.
I have a milestat.com subscription, so I don't know if this link will play for you, but here's the race:

Well, he's not particularly smooth looking for one. Luckily, there are no points for style:

I'll just do you the service of saying who these guys are, since a claim about McGorty, Hunter, and Lomong sounds like Sean McGorty, Andrew Hunter, and Lopez Lomong:
Alexander Lomong (Fork Union)
Andrew Hunter (Loudoun Valley)
Brandon McGorty (Chantilly)

Thanks. I was legitimately worried for a second that Lopez got beaten by two high schoolers.
Actually, Lopez last weekend ran a 1:49 (he won, but...)
