Not sure why the IAAF site doesn't reflect the 3:03.35 time in either the 2017 timed list (should be 18th) or the top U20 time. Last year's 39.20 by the Texas 4 at the same event shows. All star hybrid times from Florida Relays show there, so it's odd to me. I may need to contact them to set them straight. Lol. When all 4 are wearing a USA logo on their chest, Cayman Islands doesn't much matter one would think. As per the milesplit writer, it's a youth American record. I feel the same way, whether official, unofficial, hybrid, whatever. No team of 18 or under has ever ran faster. If the USATF wants to honor that they can update the site. If not, so be it. I can deal with 1-1. I may ban the IAAF site until it's posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfaddict1 Posted June 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 https://www.iaaf.org/records/toplists/relays/4x100-metres-relay/outdoor/men/senior/2016 #63 best in world time by the Texas 4 last year. #5 U20 in the world last year... https://www.iaaf.org/records/toplists/relays/4x100-metres-relay/outdoor/men/u20/2016 Jamal Walton is far left... the jersey doesn't say Cayman Islands. It was a USA effort and should be noted on that site as was last year's all-star Texas squad. Here is the current 2017 U20 4x400 rankings list... https://www.iaaf.org/records/toplists/relays/4x400-metres-relay/outdoor/men/u20/2017 USA's 3:03.35 blistered those times. Here is the current 2017 4x400 rankings list (senior) https://www.iaaf.org/records/toplists/relays/4x400-metres-relay/outdoor/men/senior/2017 You will notice #2 Empire Athletics (all stars), Altis right below at #3, US Red #16, Pure Athletics #31, Akan track club from Jamaica #55, GC Striders Jamaica #61... I rest my case. They belong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westbankeagle Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 You know that wasn't a USATF USA squad right? That was a meet organized USA squad. It has no bearing on Team USA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying! Both outstanding programs... UF won the recruiting war for Bates, nothing more to say. I'm sure A&M wouldn't mind having Holloway. The women's final was just as exciting as it came down to the 4x400... STA grad Kendall Ellis (JR) just came up short in the anchor for USC in a hotly contested race with Oregon (who won the title by needing to finish first). Both Ellis and the Oregon anchor ran well under 50 splits. Ellis took 3rd in the 400 final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe more both Indoor and outdoor. They had another girl from TX on that 4x400 team - I believe but not confirmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
