NBIN makes its Mark(s) again!

In INdoor Track and Field, there are some givens.
And in recent years, one of the surest is that the NBIN will fill out the lists that were, before the meet, rather slow getting revved up.
And it seems the Men have taken over from the Women, providing many of the highlights, and much of the depth.
So let's begin with the Men's distances, where in some cases, you got 2 for the price of one!

Grant Fisher broke the NBIN Meet Record in the 1 Mile, running 4:03.54.
True or false?
The results sheet (and the eTN) says True.
I say False.

Coming around the final curve, at about 1540 meters, Fisher tripped over the curb rail, stumbled into the infield, and, while trying to regain his balance (and not fall!), ran about 15 or 20 meters OFF the track!
The announcers wondered if he would be Disqualified.
But he wasn't.
Here's my take:

1. He won the race with a time of 4:03.54.
2. He was clearly ahead when he stumbled, and there was no interference with any other runner.
3.  Even with the missteps, he would clearly have won.
4. BUT---he did NOT run the FULL Mile!!

So whether it called for a DQ or not, he did NOT run the full distance, so therefore can NOT be said to have won the MILE!
And even though I'm going against the grain, I'm not accepting his Mile time for my lists, or for my Record Book.

However, he was timed at 1500 enroute (before he went off-track) in 3:46.41.
That is the NBIN Meet Record, and is 2nd A-T HS.
If this were a printed results page, it would appear as....
1. Grant Fisher             (nt)

Two other 1500 times make my list.
James Burke's 3:51.93 is 13th A-T HS.
Sam Ritz's 3:52.14 is 14th A-T HS.

Burke's Mile time of 4:08.48 rates 21st A-T HS.

The Men's Two Mile was even better!
In addition to 4 Two Mile times being added to my lists, there were SIX 3000 meter enroute times added too.

Andrew Hunter won the race in 8:48.22.
That puts him 6th on the A-T HS 2 Mile list.
His 8:16.44 3000 is 9th A-T HS.

Levi Thomet, from Alaska, ran the Two Mile in 8:48.32.
That's good for 7th A-T HS.
His enroute 3000 time of 8:16.46 is 10th A-T HS.

Alex Ostberg ran the Deuce in 8:48.88, making him 8th A-T HS.
His 3K time of 8:16.73 makes him 11th A-T HS.

Aldan Tooker followed in 8:56.16, making him 23rd A-T HS.
His 3000 time of 8:21.34 ranks him 13th A-T HS.

Zack Souder's 3000 time of 8:27.11 rates him 20th A-T HS.
And Zach Dale's 3K time of 8:29.49 is good for 24th A-T HS.

Anna Rohrer beat Ryen Frazier in a thrilling duel over 5000 meters.
And she did it by breaking the HSR (and the NBIN Meet Record) for the 5th straight year!!
Her time of 16:10.79 led Frazier's 16:12.21 to the tape.

Rohrer led almost all the way, but Frazier has a kick, so it was never over until the final straight!
And it was negative split, as Rohrer hit 2500 meters in about 8:12, thus running the second half in 7:58.

Rohrer gets the Senior Class record as well.
Frazier moves to 3rd A-T HS.
(Her sister Wesley is now 4th!!)

Stephanie Jenks finished 3rd, but didn't PR.
Aubrey Argyle's 16:50.35 moves her into 17th A-T HS.
And Sarah Kittel's 16:57.97 is 23rd A-T HS.

Frazier also ran the 2 Mile.
She won easily (by 18 seconds!) in a fast 10:02.86.
She's now 4th A-T HS.
And her 3000 enroute time of 9:23.68 is 5th A-T HS.

Kate Murphy's 9:43.93 3000 time and her 2nd place 10:20.22 in the 2 Mile both rank her 24th A-T HS.

Noah Lyles (and a few other Male sprinters) had a good meet.

Lyles broke the NBIN Meet Record, and the Junior Class record with his 20.83 in the 200.
And it rates him 2nd A-T HS.

Right behind him came Ryan Clark's 20.85.
This moves him from 12th A-T HS, tied with 3 others, up to 3rd!

Clark and Lyles were both timed in 6.65 in the 60, with Clark getting the W.
Both are now 13th A-T HS.
Clark moves up from 16th.

Darryl Harroway ran 6.70, making him 21st A-T HS, tied with 4 others.

Rai Benjamin ran the 200 in 21.09, making him 8th A-T HS, tied with 2 others.
But he did even better in the 400, as his 46.59 moves him  up from 15th A-T HS all the way to 3rd, where he's tied with 1 other.

Taylor McLaughlin (Sydney's older brother) ran 46.80, and he's now 5th A-T HS.

Izaiah Brown's 47.32 rates him 16th A-T HS.

And Noah's brother Josephus ran 47.35, which makes him 18th A-T HS, tied with 1 other.

Speaking of the young Sydney McLaughlin, she shattered her 60H PR, running a solid 8.17.
This is the Soph Class record..
She's now 3rd A-T HS, tied with 1 other.

(I'm putting her on my very short list of "Next To Turn Pro Before Their Senior Year of HS"!!)

Anna Cockrell also ran well, her 8.21 making her 5th A-T HS.

Further back was Alexis Duncan, whose 8.36 makes her 20th A-T HS, tied with 2 others.

Deakin Volz (son of "Volzing" inventor Dave) nabbed the HSR with his Vault of 17-11.25.
It's also the NBIN Meet Record, as well as the Senior Class record.
And he moved from 2nd A-T HS into 1st.

The Women's PV went to Kristen Denk's 13-8.50 PR.
This moves her from 16th A-T HS, tied with 4 others, into 10th.

Meagan Gray reached 13-4.50, making her 17th A-T HS, tied with 4 others.

Nicole Greene dominated the Women's HJ, as her 6-0.50 won easily, as no one else reached even 5-10!!
For Greene, it broke Lisa Bernhagen's venerable NBIN Meet Record of 6-0, which was 31 years old!!
She's now 5th A-T HS, tied with 2 others.

Both Sprint Medley Relays produced new HSR's!

The Men's team from Dunbar Ohio ran 3:24.16, cracking the old mark dating from 1997.
It's both the HSR and the Meet Record.
And the Women's team from Rush-Henrietta-Sperry (Where is that??) ran 3:52.68, getting the HSR and the MR.

The Women's Horizontal Jumps produced some good marks.

Kate Hall took the LJ with a solid jump of 20-11.25.
It's the NBIN Meet Record, and makes her 4th A-T HS.

Courtney Corrin, who set the OUTdoor Frosh Class record a couple of years ago, reached 20-7, her INdoor PR.
She's 9th A-T HS.

Asa Garcia took the Triple Jump with her 43-2.50.
This ranks her 5th A-T HS.

Sydnel Murphy reached 42-0.75, which makes her 13th A-T HS.

And Chinne Okoronkwo's 41-10 makes her 16th A-T HS, tied with 1 other.

HSR's in the Mile Walk might not rate high on anyone's list of prominent records, but a HSR is a HSR!

And Ashleigh Resch's time of 7:00.33 is the new HSR, as well as the Meet Record.
She's from Ohio.

Grant Holloway and Chad Zallow both ran 7.59 in the 60H, with Holloway getting the Win.
But both get the NBIN Meet Record.

Holloway also gets the Junior Class record.
He's 2nd A-T HS.
Zallow moves from 4th, tied with 3 others, into a tie at 2nd, tied with Holloway.

Charles Graham ran it in 7.75, making him 21st A-T HS, tied with 1 other.

Jared Lovelace TJ'ed 50-10.25 for 20th A-T HS.

Nevada Moreno's 1 Mile time of 4:43.23 is the new Soph Class record!

In a Middle School race, 7th Grader Katelyn Tuohy ran the Mile in 4:59+.
In a post-race interview, she said this was her FIRST year of running track!!

Outside of The Armory, there's been quite a bit of action since I took sick.
So let's wrap things up with a "quick" overview of all I've gathered.
This will be scattershot, so gather your wits and read on!

Kaylee Antill threw the WT 60-2.25, moving her from 20th to 10th on the A-T HS list.

Titiana Marsh may be a rare bird---a young American female TJ'er with some potential!
She shattered the Frosh Class record with her 41-2 leap!
It misses my DDD list by just 2.5 inches!!

A 15 year year old Jamaican, Chris Taylor, ran 400 meters in 45.69 OUTdoors.
It's reportedly the Age 15 record!

Walking Records have been going down heel to toe.....so to speak.
Elmira Alembakova broke the WR in the Women's 20K Walk with her 1:24.47.

Behind her came Marina Pandakova's 1:25:03, which rates as 3rd A-T World.
She was followed by Svetlana Vasilyova's 1:25:04, which is 4th A-T World.

On the Men's side, Japan's Yusake Suzuki Walked 20K in an astounding 1:16:36 for the WR.

Tom Walsh broke his own New Zealand National Record in the SP with his 70-1.50.
I believe that was his first 70 footer!

Jeannelle Scheper began her Collegiate OUTdoor season in a good way, HJ'ing 6-3.25.
This puts her at 20th A-T Collegiate, tied with 2 others.

Mondo Duplantis began HIS OUTdoor season in a good way too.
His 16-10 opener is the OUTdoor 9th Grade record!!
The old mark, Jake Lavender's 16-3.25, dated from 1987!!

Back to INdoors for a sec!
Jaymas Dennison ran 600 meters in 1:16.22, making him 10th A-T US.
He was followed by Strymar Livingston's 1:16.53, which makes him 12th A-T US.

Two relative newbies to the Half-Marathon business won their respective races with fast PR's.

Molly Huddle won the NYC race in 1:08:31, beating her previous best by 33 seconds.
But more significantly, she beat a Kenyan woman, Joyce Chepkirui, whose PR is more than 2 minutes faster.
Oh, and she beat friendly rival Sally Kipyego too!!

Meanwhile, over in Lisbon, Mo Farah is getting serious, winning the race in a speedy 59:32, his first time under an hour!!

And what about Kayla Montgomery?
Well, she's had some good races of late.

In 2 different OUTdoor meets, she ran 3000 meters in 10:27.90.
She was 3rd in the race, 2nd on her team, and the top Frosh.

Finally, at the Alabama Relays last weekend, she ran a race that was interrupted when the stadium lights suddenly went dark!!
(Actually, there were 3 sections of the event, so I'm not certain it was HER race that was stopped!)
But about 20 minutes later, with the lights back on, she finished 5th in the 3rd heat of the 1500, running 4:47.94.

Next PLANNED post will be my INdoor Wrap-up, which will include my selections for Athletes of the Year, as well as best performance and other assorted trivia.

But as John Lennon famously sang...
Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans!
