Women are one spot out of the top 12 qualifying relays right now. Let's see if we PR today

Women improve to a 3:31.17 to slide into 10th in the nation as of now. If we don't improve on that conference week, then we most likely won't get that relay into nationals.

Forgive me I missed a heat from the Arkansas meet where all 4 teams ran faster than us. So we are in 12th. I'll look around to see if any other meets have faster times than us from today.

We will definitely have to PR at conference. Not having a huge anchor in this race hurt us last year and will hurt us again this year! Really surprising to see us struggle in this event on the women's side

He's ran it about once or twice each year, but never in an important meet. He has a faster 200 time outdoors that he ran just over the legal wind limit at 20.21. Last indoors he went 20.57 so it's proven he's faster.




Indoor National Championships, points are such a premium it would be awesome to score anything in the 200. However it's extremely rare for anyone to run the 200 and the 400 and also have to run the 4x400. Robinson and Lawson Jacobs could potentially qualify in both the 200 and the 400.


I get that's rare, but if you believe that's the only way you can win it, isn't that what you should do. Shouldn't you try to win, bc what does it matter getting 7th. Is it just bc selfishly the player wants to do great in 1 event instead of just ok in 2 events. I am just looking at it from the coaches perspective, seems like a no brainer to try to win

I don't think it has anything to do with selfishness but fatigue. It's hard double to begin with and I have no doubt Coach wants to win the mile relay more than anything.

Shouldn't we want to win the whole thing more than anything though ?

I'll let Coach worry about that. He knows where the points will come from.
