NON 4X1 Mile relay

[runfan]

This is an unusual event for HS and it seems to be a popular event for distance schools. I have heard a few teams from the Heartland and Midwest are going to run the 4X1 Mile Relay at this years NON. Pleasant Valley in Iowa is reportedly going and I've heard Potosi and Fort Zumwalt South from Missouri as well.

Last years winner (Fayetteville Manlius) won in 17:18 and if you add up the PR's for the schools above (as best as I could find as the Potosi numbers are from districts) you have:

17:24 Ft Zumwalt South
17:42 Pleasant Valley
17:44 Potosi

Does anyone know of any other team(s) from the Heartland going or who could compete in this race?

Some MN teams that might do alright:


Even Prairie MN: 17:38.5
Ryan Little 12 Eden Prairie 04:14.2
Jackson Wiley 12 Eden Prairie 04:21.6
John Davis 12 Eden Prairie 04:30.7
Chris Mueller 9 Eden Prairie 04:32.0

Willmar MN: 17:40.3
Kaafi Adeys 12 Willmar 04:17.9
Mohad Hassan 10 Willmar 04:22.7
Mustafa Yusef 12 Willmar 04:29.4
Mohamed Bedel 12 Willmar 04:30.3

Potosi's best times from this season are

Thebeau - 4:16.87
Mathis - 4:21.61
Swearingen - 4:23.07
****eman - 4:23.5

Total - 17:25.05

Both Josh's have faster PR's from last season. Also they run their state 1600 tomorrow. They will probably both run faster tomorrow. We'll see.

Hickman HS from Columbia MO actually ran a 17:45 4x1600 earlier this year.

Pleasant Valley 17:42
Wilmar 17:40

anyone have a list of the teams who are in the 4 x mile yet?

[borgy]

willmar won't be doing it...if they do anything at all it'd be the 4x800, but i'm doubting that as well

I don't know if Lakeville South has a 4th (only using the MN Honor Roll as reference), but their top three are pretty fast:

Hilson 4:13.61
Volz 4:22.99
Backes 4:32.71

13:07 for 3...another 4:33 would put them at 17:40.

Mathis and Thebeau of Potosi both ran faster this weekend at state so here is an update

Thebeau - 4:11.17
Mathis - 4:12.92
Swearingen - 4:23.07
N!ggeman - 4:23.5

Total - 17:10.66

FZS (Rood and Cole) also went faster as well

Rood - 4:12.04
Cole - 4:15.66
Moore - 4:22.30
Funderburk - 4:28.00

Total Time - 17:18.00

Question is.....can you gain entry to the NON 4xMile by just submitting your four fastest runner for the year, or do you have to compete in the race throughout the season to get an official 4xMile time? Rood asked me this after the State meet, and I didn't know how to answer him....apparently FZS is wanting to run.
