Iatc podcast blew it again. Dowling beat some nationally ranked teams but they didn't even mention it.
Very good podcast. Im not sure I would have dowling ranked 2nd yet, but oh well. Until state when its same course same weather who cares. I just hope the top 3 or 4 teams all make it to state healthy cause one runner makes a huge difference on the top 3 or 4 teams its that close and no matter who wins It hopefully we see all the best runners there and a team Dont win because of injuries. Also we have teams running tempos durning meets weather anyone wants to admit it or not so its hard to gauge times on certain runners. Definitely a fun season and faster times already then some thought we would see this year, I still think we could see a couple sub 15's yet weather and course permitting. And my money would be kifle, zuber or merrick.
Iowa City boys team won this race. 5 of their top 8 are either freshmen or sophomores.
If PV had Carl Rekow and Cameron Gotto run and perform like they have this season, they win by a landslide. Of course, I don’t know if they will be back and A-ok for their next meet or if they’re out for the season or what.
Did Jaden Merrick try to go with Putz and die at the Wartburg meet? Looking at where he placed, I'm thinking that must be the case or Cedar Falls just ran as a pack.

He looked injured walking off, appears it happened shortly before mile two and looked like he just tried to finish, not hurt he can run with the putz that was there today.

Times were really slow this year. WAs it due to the heat or was there another contributing factor?
putz is coming off long injury, Merrick was injured, and heat effected a lot, kids passed out and down all over course, multiple kids took ambulance ride and where being attended to.

Here’s what I saw, Merrick looked very comfortable in second and appeared to be going for lead when something happened to him and he looked in pain the rest of the race and dropped back instantly, I did see him with ice and walking very slowly after the race. I don’t care which kid or team is your favorite but I know I Don’t like seeing anyone hurt.
Yes. Putz' time is very impressive considering many kids in the race ran 1 minute slower than they have this year. Seems like Putz would have run 14:40 in normal conditions.

After his injury, think he is still getting back to where he was.
