    Incredible 7:28 by the Jamaican squad to win the Championship of America boys 4x800m race at the 2022 Penn Relays, missing the meet record by just two seconds!

      @@tomgibson2049 maybe, but most high school track teams don't travel far. I ran track and we competed at Penn. I'd say 90% of good HS track athletes never even heard of Penn relays because track in the US is probably the 10th popular sport, nor do high schools have the budget to send their teams across the massive country. Most high schools track coaches are bums off the street or football coaches forced to also coach track. So they don't know or care about big meets in other states. If all the top track athletes could compete at Penn there would be no contest.

      @@geosync9742 Really...Thank God opinions aren't facts. If as you say you have faster students consistently not a part of this meet it would translate to the Olympics or other international meets like the Diamond League, or ISTAF. This meet is exposure for the federation to spend money and groom the next Carl Lewis or Michal Johnson. Y'all need to chill, xenophobia on blacks ain't a good look.

They told me yes on many occasions and when push comes to shoved they don't. This is very very important to learn about these Americans and the others living in this country.
