[king99]

what year is he and where is he going to college if he is a senior?

[AMBULOPHOBIA]

who cares how fast he is? hes hot

and those times are horrible...BRD just give up

edit:hes a supersoph

[polyxc]

what year is he and where is he going to college if he is a senior?
sophomore

With Sheridan, Gruenewald, and Murdock, these 4 make quite a sophomore class. Along with Christian Thompson, Corey Robinson, and freshman Charles White, NY has a lot to look forward to.

I hope Sheridan and Murdock get there health concerns worked out.

[king99]

This guy is a soph ? Yikes??

[Shen Rules]

Just shortly before his open 800 at Sctdy Invy, he also split a 1:53.0 on the 4x800.

[king99]

Damnation!! He might be best soph ..whoops about equal to Craig Forys, who has split 4:13.2 essentially twice to go along wit his frosh 9:20 3200 and 12:36 vanny time

[conabud]

not that it matters TOO much, but the tullyrunners site said his 4:15.3 was a 1600M, not mile. which was it?
king, i'm suprised you didn't know about rhodes-devey....he had a pretty darn good cross season and frosh year last year, and you seem to know a lot about NY runners.....i guess he has just flown under the radar.

[polyxc]

If I had to pick the sophomore and freshman distance guys, I'd say in these guys. Just my opinion. Sheridan and Murdock have health problems, so they probably won't acheive any more this Spring.

Sheridan, NY
Murdock, NY
Michael Cybulski,
Logan Gonzalez,
Brian Rhodes-Devey NY
Craig Forys,
Sintayehu Taye,
Kevin Havel,
Cory Primm,
Matt Frerker,
Tommy Gruenewald NY
Max O'Donahue-McDonald

Concerning Brian Rhodes-Devey race at the Colonie Relays - Originally I was told it was 1 Mile race (that's why the TullyRunners database lists 1 Mile), but I just got the results from the Schenectady Daily Gazette newspaper which reports 1600 Meters ... so I'm not certain what the distance was.

Edit ... Here are the results as reported in the Daily Gazette:

1,600 - Rhodes-Devey (Guild), 4:15.3; Shaffer (BC), 4:23.9; McManamon (Shen), 4:30.8

It was a 1600m b/c it started at the finish line...saw it with my own eyes ;) ...pretty impressive

[IrishBH]

Rumor has it he can clap with one hand. I've also heard several ladies refer to him as "worthy of some rueben love"

[4x2mile]

Rph

I've also heard eye witness account that Brian has bladder problems and must resort to relieving himself in the middle of the football field...

[jwager]

It's all true ladies and gentlemen. He can clap with one hand, and he does relieve himself in the middle of football fields 5 minutes before his race. The man can do it all.

[XC Runner]

Does anyone know whats going on with McManoman?

[king99]

I am a big DMac fan...if heathly he is one of the best I have seen..where does he WANT to go..that is the question?

[conabud]

I just looked at Tullyrunenrs and it said Mile, not 1600. ANybody know for sure?

http://www.tullyrunners.com/boytrack2.htm

if you look at the tullyrunners MAIN page, it says 1600. THAT is what i saw.
i don't have a habit of looking at the database.......anyway, it has been cleared up now. great run by BR-D. congrats to the man who likes to relieve himself on the football field

[Achilles]

what were deveys splits for the race? he is usually a go out hard and try and hang on type guy. old nicole blood style.

wouldnt be suprised if he was out in 2:06 or even faster but wouldnt be suprised if he was out in 2:10 either. just curious

[AMBULOPHOBIA]

BRD can shoot lightening bolts from his eyes too

[deluge]

out in 2:05/2:06

[steeplegrlxc]

Brian can clap with one hand...and gives the best spin-around hugs EVER!

i must say...i do miss the ponytail... :(

[AMBULOPHOBIA]

i must say...i do miss the ponytail... :(


can't say i was a fan of that

[Konirunner]

BRD can also run a 4:13.... and break the NYS Soph Record. He won by 6 seconds over FM's Owen Kimple. Full results on Tullyrunners.

[Scotty]

The NYS Soph mark is 4:11.83m for Trautman (=4:13.33y)

Brendan Fennell is next with a 4:13.60y soph mark

[ecksee]

4:13.49 full mile...breaks Fennell's record from four years ago

PS: Quote from the local paper: "'He's a great competitor and good sport,' [Owen] Kimple said of Rhodes-Devey."He shook my hand."

[king99]

where and when was this?

[king99]

Just read this..ohh my....I guess he gets the soph mile mark..

1600 mark by JT is superior, but have to run the full distance. probabaly will make no difference anyway as he just ran this and won by 6m with full month to go!! wow!!

[eatmyshorts]

BRD can shoot lightening bolts from his eyes too

wow i gotta meet this guy

[jwager]

He came through 1600 in 4:11.5...which is now our school record for the 1600 (former record 4:12.7...it was 27 years old)

[Scotty]

Had to be a shade slower than that at 1600m, given that he ran 4:13.50y (would probably not have been 2.0 sec for the 9.3 meters). My guess is that Trautman will retain his 1600m Soph record, while BRD is the new Class Mile record holder.

That 1:53.81 is shocking, IMO. The 9:16.92 is another GREAT mark. BRD is having a tremendous yr, going all the way back to 9th at Fed XC. He is clearly the top Soph 800/miler around. The NYS Fed is loaded, as usual.

[jwager]

No, he was definately 4:11.5 at 1600. He just happened to run the last 9m in 1.99 seconds, which in fact now that I hear it, seems like a pretty legit number.

Trautman still holds the 1600 record though because it wasn't an official mark at 1600, just a few coaches with watches.

[WilliamsQBY]

No doubt he can break that though

[lharpnad]

do you think brd will double 800 /1600 at states? Maybe he can tell us.

[Achilles]

thats a ridiculous double considering 800 is both days. if it was 8 on first day and then mile its not so terrible. but he will have 3 races in 2 days and they will be very high intensity races. idk him or anything, but i would say just mile. him and ben white dualing it out and if danny mac runs it he will be in there to say the least. his kick is the best and has great speed.

hopefully jameison does as well and german from southhampton, throw in kimple obviously also. NYS is huge in distance this year, just unfortunate that some of the studs are hurt so bad

You were there, so I am sure you are correct. Given this, BRD was clearly tying up a little bit as he neared the line. 2.0 seconds from 1600 to mile is fairly slow (1.5 sec would be normal for a guy passing by in 4:11.5)

In any event, GREAT job by Mr. DV! He deserves enormous credit for what he's accomplished in his Soph yr.

[MilesOfTrials]

do you think brd will double 800 /1600 at states? Maybe he can tell us.

i think hes gonna try the mile/2mile

[AMBULOPHOBIA]

or pv and 400ih ...he can do whatever he feels like at that moment

[jwager]

I'm thinking LJ and Shot...maybe the disc depending on how qualis go
