Dude, they and their fan bois were marching around telling everyone they were going to all break 4. less talk and lot more humility would go a long way. if you’re going to ask for the spotlight, expect some crap when you don’t deliver.

Can you point to any interviews where anyone from Newbury Park predicted sub-4 from all four boys?

Think of every excellent high school cross country or track team for the last 70+ years, no one came within 30 seconds of Newbury Park’s 16:29:30 today. Not mine, not yours, not the great 1974 Hammond, Indiana team with three sub 9:00 two milers, not any of Joe Newton’s excellent York teams, not any NXN winning team, not any national 4 x 1 national champion. Many colleges in 2022 run slower indoors, on or before March 12. Outdoor is coming and they are now only competing with themselves, on the high school level. They ran faster that the first four finishers in the mile in the same national meet today. Amazing.

That's partially because 70 to ~20 years ago people just went to the HS they were assigned to.
That's not to take away from NP. But it's different now. It's more like HS football and basketball where teams form all-star teams in their cities at one HS, rather than the natural split that used to occur.
It's just a different era. No need to compare.
The 1974 Hammond guys were a bunch of guys who ended up at the same HS. Imagine if you took the best SoCal kids from the 2010s and stuck them in one HS. Or combined the woodlands and kingwood of the 90s or the York and Napervilles on the 2010s.
You'd have teams that rivaled NP that all came from within 10-20 miles of each other.
Difference is now, in some locations, all those kids transfer to one school.
NP is the best team of all time, but don't act like this is a record that most teams ever peak for much less even go for
That's because there aren't many schools that have 4 sub 4:15 milers that could have even attempted the record. It's not like 17:01 was a weak record, this 16:29 is just on a completely different level.

Also, keep in mind that 3 of the guys on that team are juniors. Running that time with only one senior on the team is even more impressive.

feel free to correct me if there are other examples, but i think that the fastest 4xmile adding up the prs of the 4 fastest runners in a schools history is like 16:13-16:15.
Newbury park may very well challenge that outdoors in a real race, with 3 juniors
Don’t you find it pathetic that you’re making fun of high schoolers? No one, certainly not from NP, said they were going sub 16. If anything they said their goal was to break the national record.
