Lyles' school is subject to this rule and the Olympic trials doesn't fall into the category of any of these meets, so his 20.09 does NOT count for HSR purposes.
But it does count as an American Junior Record.
No one - and I mean NO ONE - takes the NFHS records/criteria seriously. Like, at all. Even a little.
You are delusional.
Ad hominem and appeal to the majority is not an argument
You may not take them seriously, but where's the logic in calling his run a HS record when he's already GRADUATED and didn't record this time in HS competition?.....
And apparently I'm the delusional one, lol
