Rojo says there isn't a Big 4 of US 1500m running in Cooper Teare, Cole Hocker, Yared Nuguse, and Hobbs Kessler as he adds in a 5th - Nathan Green. Which of these studs will go home devastated?

Cooper Teare and Sam Prakel both got beat.

Katelyn Tuohy, Alicia Monson and Elise Cranny will have NCAA/American records in mind in the women's 3000 while the men's 3000 features a rematch of Geordie Beamish and Cooper Teare (plus Luis Grijalva and Josh Kerr).

Teare's former training partner Cole Hocker will remain coached by Ben Thomas. *MB: Cooper Teare joins the BTC!!!

Teare did visit the hospital on Sunday after cutting his finger but will be fine for Worlds. *Cooper Teare Hospitalized???

The men's 1500 was tactical and Cooper Teare still won. Sinclaire Johnson blew everyone away in the women's 1500 and Evan Jager has never been so happy to lose a race in his life.

The big shocker was Cole Hocker, America's 1500m sensation in 2021, went home in round 1.

From Elaine Thompson-Herah and Sha'Carri Richardson in the 100 to Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Cole Hocker in the Bowerman Mile, the world and America's best are all in Eugene this weekend.

The meet was a bit underwhelming as Caldwell was the only athlete to hit the World Championship standard on the night. In other action, Neil Gourley took down Cole Hocker and won the men’s 1500 in 3:35.43 and Evan Jager struggled over the final 150 in the men’s steeple and Emma Coburn ran 4:09 in the women's 1500. The most entertaining race of the night may have been the B heat of the men's 800 with Cooper Teare and HS sensation Colin Sahlman.

What a fun weekend of track action. We break it all down for you.

Cooper Teare has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss this weekend's USATF Indoor Championships.

Streich will have to hold off Bryce Hoppel & Isaiah Harris in the 800 (and maybe Donavan Brazier too) while Teare searches for his first US title alongside training partner Hocker. *MB: Official 2022 USA Indoor Discussion Thread - BTC goes AWOL, Teare goes for the double and more.

They remained the #3 and #4 fastest American milers of all-time as Teare edged Hocker for the win for the second straight year.

What a wild weekend. When it's all over, the North American record in the men's mile, w5000, and m5000 may be history. The NCAA record in the men's 3k also could go as well as the world record in the women's DMR. From Boston to Chicago to Spokane, stars like Moh Ahmed, Yared Nuguse, Cole Hocker, Cooper Teare, Raevyn Rogers, Courtney Frerichs andGabriela DeBues-Stafford will be going for fast times. We break it down for you.

Cooper Teare and Cole Hocker are going after Bernard Lagat's American record in the mile in two weeks in Chicago.

A second NCAA XC title would vault Mantz into the NCAA XC pantheon, but to win he'll have to beat a loaded field featuring Kiptoo, Adriaan Wildschutt, Cooper Teare, Nico Young, and more. *MB: NCAA Predicted Men's Individual top 10 

Paul Chelimo showed he is back as Grant Fisher and Woody Kincaid made their second Olympic team and all 3 finished in lane 4.

Teare got more than just his first NCAA individual crown. He also picked up the Olympic standard and broke Bill McChesney's legendary Oregon school record from 1982.

Yared Nuguse made a statement on Friday night: he’s back. Cole Hocker showed he's human.

• Cole who? Yared Nuguse FTW over Teare and Hocker!!!!
• “Nuguse is so overrated”
• can someone take the lead just ONCE for my guy COOPER
• Do Nuguse, Teare, and Hocker make another attempt at 3:35.00?
• Yared Nuguse was SMART to Run Cross Country

It was a great day for US distance running as American teens broke 13:25 twice in the span of five hours.
