Casey ran 8:57 to win by only .05 seconds. Talon Hull took second. 8:57.90 to 8:57.95. the last 400m was 57 seconds and the last 200m was 25. Incredible race. McKay Johns took 3rd in 9:01, Ryan Raff 4th in 9:08, and Patrick Parker 5th in 9:08. Raff led from the gun before dying in the last 3/4 mile.

25 seconds for the last 200m I cannot believe for a second. If that were confirmed, I would believe that these two guys are the best talents in the country by far.

That wasn't official, but two people near me hand timed it at 25 -

Has to be below 27, assuming the hand timers got the start point off--even by 10m which seems unlikely--, AND delayed reactions. No matter how anyone thinks about the 25 time, any time sub 27 that is very impressive, especially at altitude wrapping up a 3200m race. -

Why would you find a finish like that hard to believe for a ~4:00 1600m runner? And why is everyone's knee jerk reaction to always think someone is lying? Is that what our world is now? Were you in the stands to watch it? -
Official splits for Clinger and Hull for the final 800m:

What do you mean by "altitude"? Something over 2000m?

Not quite. It's about 4500 feet -

Yup, even faster than I originally thought. That is incredible... 2:02 800m at the end of a 3200m... Absolutely insane -

Worth noting that A. Troutner in the 4A 3200m race closed in 63.5/60.37 (2:03.87) solo. -

At that altitude it's at least worth 12 seconds
So Clinger probably ran around 8:45 which is completely believe and with how fast he closed, this is really impressive. I'm probably even more impressed with 2nd place. I can see Clinger and Teare both AA's in the NCAA 3k next year. -

Wow I remember when the state meet was won 9:20 or so. Now 5 guys all ran under 9:10 with two under 9. Utah is stacked this year.
Who's coaching at Weber and Lehi? -
Yeah but there's a huge difference between 50.x and 52.x pace (25.x and 26.x) so that's why people chimed in about him running 25
I could split 52.x easily in high school, I could do it indoors on a 200m track, but getting under 51 took more effort and talent, so that's why people are skeptical

Fanboys gonna fanboy. Y'all think Hull is a 8:46 guy? LOL
Clinger isn't even top 5 in the country. -

I've spent time in Denver ("the Mile-High City") and Flagstaff, and Flagstaff (at ~6900ft) was an *order of magnitude* tougher than Denver. It's hard for me to feature ~4500ft as really being "altitude," but I could well be wrong...and would appreciate a link to something that shows I am! -
Geez, not sure what Casey is supposed to do. Think they targeted the 4x1600 at Arcadia. He runs a 4:02 split. Then comes back and goes 8:44 in the 3200. On what, May 6th ,up at BYU Invite, at 4600 feet, he runs a 4:06. I believe Ben Saarel had the record there at BYU track, at 4:07.95. Is there any record Casey hasn't smashed? I've coached against him. IMHO, he is a fierce competitor. He does what he sets out to do.

I'm not sure what the calculators/converters say, but compare Arcadia 3200 times of Utah runners to their Utah PBs. Almost across the board, their Arcadia times are 15-30sec faster. -

I said it was about a 12 second difference putting Clinger at 8:45. The poster right after me said with the NCAA conversion for altitude that the time converted to 8:46 low. My estimate was based purely off the NCAA conversation tool and I was pretty much spot on. I'm not sure what the exact conversion should be as the NCAA doesn't discriminate on difference levels of altitude, however 4500 feet is definitely quite a bit of altitude.
