Brandon Miller’s move was very risky and quite impressive. He broke stride and had to convert to outside lane and still had a burst of energy to qualify. Amazing work
agreed, if I was in his position I would have felt quite badly if the world champion was kept out of the olympics because of me. Although I'm sure he wasn't planning on losing that much distance because of it and having to go through time.
@@runningwithrich8534 Wait...what? It's about qualifying. Are you an athlete? Because each person has to earn their spot LOL If they don't make it, they don't make it, there is no red carpet for them. It's war. But aside from that, OP, it's a common thing for athletes to push towards the outside of their lane. You see it in every race that has people sharing lane 1, from 400 indoor on up. It makes the other person have to run extra distance. He just didn't realize that he had Braizer behind him I assume. Had he slowed down with Braizer there, then he might have forced him to go around. Result would have been Braizer in 3rd in that case, instead of winning. But he still wouldn't have made it.
Brazier is honestly lucky he opened up. Yes, he might have made it through top 3 anyway, but it would have been close. Brazier ought to buy that dude a drink.
I don't think Sowinski made a mistake drifting to the second lane. He had great position on the inside lane but he also could see that four runners were charging wide to his right, so he smartly moved to the right to block them.
That’s kind of what I was thinking, he did it for AMERICA lmao. Brazier taking home gold and Sowinski a g for moving a side for da man. That’s just what I was thinking lmao
He had me worried that last 100m. If Sowinski stayed on the inside the outcome could have been different. I was beginning to have my doubts for Donavan though. He was not in a good position, but I'm SO glad that he did make it through and that Sowinski did slide over.
Honestly Sowinski deserved a fourth place finish because he kept on looking around like he wasnt meant to be concentrating on his race. But respect to him, because he nearly got Brazier.
@@philomenaakpanaadie2015 I never said Sowinski could've won, I just said the outcome could have been different because of how terrible of a position he was in. And for such an experienced runner, Sowinski should've known not so slide to the outside like that. It was an amateur move.
They need to change the criteria to be solely based on the time at some point because no way someone who runs a 1:45 should be punished for not coming in first while people who run 1:48 or 49 to win their heat qualify.
7.35'' ......if you close the door to your left, then you open the door to your right...and usually all are comming from the right door....aparently commentators run always sprint in lanes
Am I the only one who thinks Sowinski did nothing wrong by letting Brazier, you know the best US candidate to win a gold at the olympic in the 800m, on the inside? I mean he knows he is better than him so why force Brazier to burn more energy or even risk to lose the best us candidate of a gold medal when Sowinski clearly know he can't win it?
K.Goucher, Btw Brazier was an Oregon Project team member just like Rupp, you shouldn't be so biased!!!!! Rupp is a 4 time Olympian and you try so hard not to talk positive about him!!! He did nothing wrong! You praise Brazier as you should but you should give Rupp credit too.
Well first of all there are such things as Americans with Austrailian accents, second of all there is such a thing as an Austrailian-American, third of all its commentary for the OLYMPIC games aka one the most publicized international events so its not totally unbelievable to have an international commentator.
@@moderater2.048 "Americans with Australian accents": Belive those kind of pple are called Australians in the first place. "Australian-American": Fine. Is that the case here? Commentary for the OLYMPIC games": Well, first of all these are qualifying rounds internal for US. That makes it less believable. Second, the 2nd cmtator (female) is American, same goes for th guy on the field interviewing the athletes. It wud make more sense to have an all-american team comment on what is a purely american try-out/qualifying. I'll buy yr 2nd argument, IF that is the case. So, is the Australian accent guy an American-Australian?
Incredibly dumb running by Sowinski. I'm amazed that someone of his experience could have made such a basic mistake. Brazier might not have made it through had Sowinski held the lane. Commentators say that you can't see behind you but you can: Sowinski was looking up at the screen as he came around the final bend.

He has a bright future ahead of him. Only 19, but he runs like a veteran.
how on earth did he manage to pull that off lmao
@@noway5084 hes just fast😂
if you continue to upload these trials clips, you will become my fav channel by far!!! cheers from Croatia
agreed. im so excited about the oylmpics and want to know who is qualifying. cheers from South Africa!!!
@@Regimeshifts definitely. the us trials are so fun and exciting to watch. kenyans ran faster, but the video quality was far from good haha
I fear you will soon be blocked, but thank you for providing us with the official coverage. Sometimes when it is after the fact they let it go.
Thank You for posting this
Thanks CC for getting these up!
Thank you so much for posting this. Great quality!
This vid is excellent content, subbed! 👍🏼
Come on!! Donovan Brazier LET'S GOOOOO!!!
7:50 wondering if it's a mistake or just not wanting to be the guy who keeps donovan brazier from going to the Olympics
agreed, if I was in his position I would have felt quite badly if the world champion was kept out of the olympics because of me. Although I'm sure he wasn't planning on losing that much distance because of it and having to go through time.
There was no way that Brazier wasn't going to make the top 3

Kenyans are waiting for you... 🇰🇪
That was the easiest 145 for 2nd heat. Not one of them was hitting their top gear because they didnt have to.
Idk if it’s just me but I thought I saw centrowitz and Engels in this race then I realized it’s the wish versions of those 2
18:59
Off. Poor Jewett. Went for that handshake and Clayton just walked off
And you tried to go for the correct timestamp on the video, but you missed that too :) awkward
Hell Yeah Brandon Miller!!!!!
This is good footage for 202 AD
Great running by Murphy!
Amazing Americans are doing the best in these trials
Here while the year is still 202
haha, good catch

This dude at my high school meet went through his first lap in 52 seconds in the 800 today
ouch
And prob gassed out the second lap lol
I did that once, got my PB that day, it hurt like hell
I’m predicting a 65 second lap 2
He still destroyed I think his second lap was like 59 or 58
Yo its Joe White from the athlete special in late 7 heat 1
Great job 👍 go team USA
Are we gonna talk about the handshake?
Jewitt kinda reacted late so murphy thought he didn’t notice so he didn’t want to get left hanging is my thought
It happens sometimes
Jewett is a strong ass runner
at 4:11 actually 4 qualify, voelz late, late burst! sowinski smh, miller just ran around the pack to grab 3rd (LOLZ so strong)
Brazier had a lucky win seem that he was boxed
YES Brandon Miller!
man they are ripping sowinski

It looked like he threw that race for Brazier lmao
@@aleixcatalani3953 haha imagine the flames he'd get on twitter if he jeopardized brazier's qualy.
it was the fastest heat, not they would have known that at the time, but it looks like most of the time qualifiers were from heat 2
some guys manage somehow to run without ass :) impressive!
So this kid's dad bought 150 acres and built a track? (9:50). That must've cost a fortune.
And got dusted
Stay in the inside lane and make them run around you!
Brazier almost cocked that up...
Wtf. Why does the leader give up the inside rail in the home stretch so easily now. Jenny simpson got that same treat in the 1500
They need to change the criteria to be solely based on the time at some point because no way someone who runs a 1:45 should be punished for not coming in first while people who run 1:48 or 49 to win their heat qualify.
If you can't beat somebody running a 1:48 in a heat to go to the Olympics, you shouldn't be in there

1) rupp wasn't in the races lol
2) different coaches at NOP. Rupp was under salazar from the age of 17, Brazier was running with Pete Julien
Donovan Brazier isn’t Olympic material
"...shortest guy in the field." Not likely. lol
