the 300 is Connell's territory too.

Hruch in the 300 or 500. He does split a 50 flat in the 400, hmm

I'll have to admit (motivational stuff I'm about to say to everybody), but I don't see why we think the 800 will be so exciting. I think the 1600 is more exciting right now. Only one person has broken 2 in the 800, and i hope we have more, but until someone does it we (Carroll) have some work to do. I do know that Hruch and Liberatore want to break 2 indoors. Have to find out what the real county record is for the 4x8 and 800.

And what 6 foot jumpers do we have in the county. I can't seem to find them...

From what I have seen running in college if you are a 1.54 or 1.53.9 runner like Hruch, breaking 2 in the 8 indoors should be know problem especially after running cross country. Kids on my team barely train for our month winter break, then they come back and hit 1.56 or 1.57.
I guess what I am saying is if you have a lot of natural speed like Hruch, it makes breaking two a lot easier.

Just for fun, I pulled out the top 3 athletes in each event from indoor counties last year (with graduated seniors taken out). Remember, this doesn't take into account all the great strives by athletes during outdoor track & field and during cross country.
