    CLUTE RUNS 17:02

    Olmsted Falls standout, Katie Clute ran 17:02 in winning the Seneca East Stars, Stripes, and Lights meet yesterday. Her main competition came from last years 8th place finisher at the State CC meet, Evelyn Prodoehl of Lakota West. Clute went out in 5:12 and Prodoehl was already well back...

    Elizabeth Whaley 4:49.11(now 4:39.71 All-Time State & Cincy record @ Regional)

    I'm sure many of you know this, but some of the viewers may not, but this was a one mile race. The 1600 conversion foe Whaley is 4:41.82 and for Clute 4:44.91. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this very well could be the fastest dual finish in one race by Ohio girls ever. Anyone know...

    Amazing quadruple by Katie Clute

    Good point. Doing it on the biggest stage is impressive, to say the least. But for me, my protocol for judging was based solely on quality of performance. “Best quadruple”, regardless of venue. For me, if someone had run 2:14, 4:50, 2:12, and 10:30 in a dual meet on a Tuesday in April, they...

    Elizabeth Whaley 4:49.11(now 4:39.71 All-Time State & Cincy record @ Regional)

    In your reply to another poster, regarding the All-Time record for 1600/mile for Ohio girls….I did not think your comment was negative in any way. You were just stating facts. It didn’t take anything away from anyone’s performance. I, for one, appreciate your insights, especially when it comes...

    Amazing quadruple by Katie Clute

    Wow, Whaley is crazy talented! For sure. She’s like Emily Infeld. Emily undoubtedly could have pulled off a similar quadruple as Clute, but she rarely ran the 3200. She ran 4 x 4 instead. Like Elizabeth did. In fact I looked on Milesplit and it looks like Whaley never runs the 3200. It’s just...

    Elizabeth Whaley 4:49.11(now 4:39.71 All-Time State & Cincy record @ Regional)

    I noticed on Mile Split that she hasn't run a XC or track State Meet since sophomore year. Is it because of injuries (I would suspect)?

    Successful miling by former ohio champs!

    Gofast.edu wrote...The kid from St. X Nathan Mountain ran 3:40 last week as a freshman. A matter of time before he breaks 4. I agree. Just a matter of time. He has the advantage of great talent plus great coaching. Vin Lananna and Trevor Dunbar form a fantastic coaching tandem for Nathan. But...
