Apologies for the poor formatting.
For anyone who isn’t up to date, Reed was the most recent sub-4 high schooler last season and only has and 800 PR of 1:51.
2:21 is impressive to say the least.
Reed Brown just ran a 2:21 1k

Big step up for Stanovsek and a nice PR for McGorty as well.

What would an equivalent mile be, like 3:58?

3:58/59 -
Seems like a fantastic result for Brown. I’m a little surprised to see a Southlake Carroll runner transition well to college, but I guess I shouldn’t be that shocked given how Fisher and Maton have done as fellow sub-4 runners.
Happy to see McGorty PRing too. Wasn’t there some talk of him becoming a decathlete? -
Reed showed a lot of fight and had a huge come from behind kick in the last 100 meters of that race which could mean something down the road for him when it gets to the strategic/tactical kickers races at championship meets.

Impressive run for him...sky is the limit, full of potential, great things to come, yada yada yada Did he run high mileage in high school?
Also note in last place ...the elusive Indian NCAA runner! -
sub 2:24i should mean a great shot at sub 4i.
So, McGorty is well ahead of his high school shape at the mile if he can hold that up. Stanovsek ran 1:50/4:02 last indoors,
2:21 for him indicates that he should be around 3:58 this year. -

Reasonably high, nothing insane, I recall hearing 60-70 being he highest.
And, yes, Indian runners do seem to be underrepresented in the NCAA. -
Brown turns 20 years old this summer, so more like a soph in age.
Most of the recent HS sub-4's have been by over-age athletes, Grant Fisher excepted. -

No they haven't. -

Funny that you say that, I’ve just looked it up and Cooper Teare was the only one of the bunch that was under 18 years of age when he ran 4:00.xx. The rest aren’t exactly “old” but not particularly young neither.
A few other funny facts; Sam Worley and DJ Principe share the same birthday, and Brody Hastey is only 3 months younger than Teare. -
Maton (2015) turned 19 in March of his senior year of HS.
Slagowski (2016) turned 19 in June of his senior year of HS.
Brown (2017) turned 19 in August after his HS graduation.
Hunter (2016) turned 19 in September after his HS graduation.
By historical standards, most students that age are college freshmen. That leaves only Fisher (turned 18 in April of senior year) as "normal track." -

Drew Hunter turned 19 in . . . the year he was "supposed" to turn 19: the academic year after he graduated from high school.
Not sure what you want the case to be with Brown either. He is either on the older-side of things or the younger, graduating when he is still 17. -
Hunter is borderline. I think it is far to call him old for his grade but September is generally the cutoff so I wouldn't consider him overage, just had the best possible birthday month.

Good analysis by the sands. It’s not that they are all in the incorrect grade but they are older than the majority of their peers. Hunter was in the correct grade but older than 11/12 of his peers. Not sure why anyone is arguing against the fact that age makes males faster until at least mid 20s. Many kids break 4 in college who may have done it in HS if they had they been held back 1 year.

Is this a HS record?

The issue is that people are slightly discrediting Hunter and Brown's achievements even though they turned 18 during their senior year of high school and 19 during their freshman year of college. If they had been born two or three months later then they'd have November or December birthdays and all of a sudden it doesn't matter. Really? Come on now... -
