Better Late Than Never

 Yes, I've fallen (WAY!) behind---again!
Reasons vary--inertia, laziness, reading a LOT, watching movies a LOT!
So we're still (mostly) INdoors!
This post goes back a bit--because I somehow had "lost" one of my stat note sheets from my previous post!
Found it (in my Record Book, of all places!), so I'll lead off with that!

At the 4th--and final--ATL INdoor meet, Allyson Felix shocked a bit by speeding through 200 meters in 22.59!
She gets the Age 35 Record, and makes her 18th A-T US!!
Shamier Little ran 400 in 50.57 for an ATL Meet Record!
She's 7th A-T US, and misses the World DDD by 0.02 seconds!!
Danielle Williams tied the MR with her 60H time of 7.86!

Heather MacLean won a close 800 in 2:00.53!
This makes her 19th A-T US, tied with 1 other!
Second was Ireland's Siofra Buttner in a NR of 2:00.58!
Olivia Gruver PV'ed 15-5!

But best of all was the Women's Shot Put!
Raven Saunders is all the way back!
Her 64-2.50 is a MR, and makes her 4th A-T US!
Maggie Ewen got her's out 64-1.25, making her 5th A-T US!
And Jessica Ramsey was close with her 63-11.75, making her 6th A-T US!!

The SEC--as per normal--led the Collegiate Conferences in top tier marks!
But some others contributed!
Jacory Patterson sped 400 in 45.38 for an ACC Meet Record!
Dan McArthur got his SP out 67-10.75 for another ACC Meet Record!

Elly Henes won the ACC 3000 in a MR 9:00.53!

Laurie Barton's 2:01.99 was a close 2nd, making her 13th A-T Collegiate!

The biggest Conference held on an Oversize Track were the Big 10's!
I feel sorry for all the runners who were in events on the oval!

KC Lightfoot PV'ed 19-4.25 for the Big 12 MR!

So is Kynnedy Flannel's 22.55 in the 200!
It also makes her 15th A-T Collegiate, tied with 1 other!
Another Big 12 MR was by Ruth Usoro in the TJ!
Plus, her 47-1.50 makes her 2nd A-T Collegiate behind only Keturah Orji!!
Usoro also won the LJ with her MR of 22-4.50!
It makes her 6th A-T Collegiate, tied with 1 other!
But Kevona Davis also jumped good, her 21-11 making her 20th A-T Collegiate, tied with 1 other!
Finally (at the Big 12), we have Chanel Brissett's 7.89 winning the 60H!
This makes her 8th A-T Collegiate, tied with 1 other!
A Nugent was 2nd in 7.91, making her 11th A-T Collegiate, tied with 2 others!

And now for the Southeast Conference!!
The Men's 200 was spectacular!
Terrance Laird's 20.28 edged Joseph Fahnbullah's 20.32 for the SEC Meet Record!
Laird is 10th A-T Collegiate, 8th A-T US, and 13th A-T World!
(Yes, at the SEC, we often see World list marks!!)
Fahnbullah is 14th A-T Collegiate, tied with 1 other, 12th A-T US, tied with 3 others, and on my World DDD, he's 18th A-T , also tied with 3 others!

The SEC Women were top notch also!
Athing Mu finally ran the 800 the way her talent called for!
This resulted in a new Collegiate Record of 1:58.40!
Her splits were 57.96 and 60.44!
She also gets the Age 18 Record, the Frosh Class Record, and of course the SEC MR!!
She is 2nd A-T US, behind only Ajee Wilson!!

Annie Kunz scored big in Seattle's Pentathlon with 4614 points!
BUT--the 800 being run  on that 307 meter OT, it doesn't count on my lists!
However, she scored 4610 last year for her PR!

And we go to the Adidas High School Nationals meet, supposedly taking the place of the cancelled NBIN!!
This was held February 26th to the 28th!
There were several good marks, but the quality and depth of the New Balance meet were missing for the most part!!

She is just one and a half inches from the JUNIOR Class Record!!!
She is 6th A-T HS!

The Two Mile was solid.
Syd Thorvaldson's 9:55.09 was not a PR!!
Audrey Dadamio finally ran a full Deuce, her 10:11.19 making her 22nd A-T HS!

Paige Sommers reached 13-9.25, making her 16th A-T HS, tied with 2 others!

Yaime Perez had a DT of 218-9--but not in NZ!

Finally, a couple of Walk marks!
Did you know that Nick Christie and Robyn Stevens are a couple?
Not sure if they're married or just living together, but they both won their races in Santee, CA recently.
Christie's 50000 time was 4:10:53, while the Women Walked the odd distance of 35K!!
Stevens's time of 3:01.08--if extended to 50K, would be about 4:18!

Next posts will have full reports on the European Championships, the NCAA Championships, and then the Cross Country Collegiate Championships--probably the first ever held after November!!

Sorry for the lag in my reports!!
