BobK - 06-03-2021
The meet in Eugene starts next weds for 4 days
I’ll be posting each of the 8 Stanford athletes and will start with Javelin thrower Virginia Miller. Miller has the 17th best throw 171-9 10 feet behind # 6
She’s a Sr. Her Dad at one time was the national HS record holder
I just cancelled my hotel. Very slim chance I could get a ticket with friends and family first in line at about 25% capacity
Here is the schedule

Alexa Rossum is a soph who will be in both the 100 and 200
100 11.29 # 4 all time at Stanford #18 in the field
200 22.96. # 2 all time at Stanford # 17 in the field
However an improvement of .1 to .15 would put her on the verge of placing

I believe those were both PB's for Rossum at the regional meet. It seems that most of our female sprinters get to Stanford and then underperform their freshman year. This is an example of a freshman adapting well to college track.

Bob - I see the 1500 results are under protest. Was Heymach tripped?
RE: Track & Field -

Rossum didn’t qualify in the 100

mbdude - 06-10-2021
Replay showed Heymachs spikes caught in turf, not tripped
I wasnt aware of protest
RE: Track & Field -
BobK - 06-10-2021
I didn’t think tripped with the head on view nor did Dwight Stones the announcer
But still a protest about an hour later
Virginia Miller with a PR in the javelin now 4th all time 176-2.
Another PR 178-9
