Based on the times that were run in the Nike Outdoor Nationals earlier this year I am guessing that the HS 2 mile was the fastest High School 2 mile races EVER, in terms of depth. Has there EVER been a HS race with 14 people going UNDER 9:00 ??
Take a look:
1 Matthew Centrowitz 8:41.55
2 Craig Forys 8:44.53
3 Elliott Heath 8:46.12
4 Evan Jager 8:47.59
5 Hassan Mead 8:51.23
6 Paul Springer 8:52.77
7 Sean Keveren 8:55.16
8 Dan Jackson 8:55.60
9 Girma Mecheso 8:56.58
10 Mark Amirault 8:56.84
11 Mike Fout 8:58.79
12 Thomas Gruenewald 8:58.98
13 Robert Finnerty 8:59.15
14 Maxwell O'Donoghue 8:59.19
15 Josh Mathis 9:00.16
16 Luke Puskedra 9:00.25
17 Andrew Hanko 9:01.42
18 Kyle Soloff 9:01.82
19 Dan Chenoweth 9:01.91
