This anchor must be the most under-appreciated athlete of the entire meet

[@XxTR1D]

Good on them not DQing the valley school that got the baton knocked out in the first 2 meters.
I’d just like to mention that Ridgewood ended it with a 4:01 mile…
Their splits were 3:08/49.46/1:58.2/4:01
Only a second off meet record, 8 off HS record.

That’s a fast time !!!! Wanna see the spilts. Anchor had to run close to 4 flat

[@Tsax4x8]

He got the stick and crossed the start / finish line around 5:56 on the clock, finished with 9:57.91 so he ran between 4:01-4:02.

Steven Hergenrother ran 4:01.8 as just a junior. Previous PR was 4:08. He also split 1:50.3 in his 4x8 the previous night. I actually commentated an 800m race of his at the Loucks Games in White Plains, NY, he came second behind Devan Kipyego but was putting him under some decent pressure down the home stretch. I admittedly didn't know who he was then but he's put himself in prime position to become one of the seniors to be reckoned with next year.

Two westfields?

[@XxTR1D]

Maybe they’re that good. Kinda confused myself… the uniforms look the exact same, but maybe it is different schools.

[@andyrurustein]

@@XxTR1Dnah they’re just a very good school so they had an a and b team

[@cameronnephew3680]

T'was over before it even began

[@meyiotn8575]

Ridgewood kept getting boxed out in the 1200 and 800
