Hydel's Incredible  

Dont blame them too much. Sometimes the paper is wrong.

McAnnuff*

@@landoblu Thanks for the correction

Facts lol

One of the reasons I watch on mute.

It's disrespectful for them not to learned the athletes name for proper commentary

Our commentators are second to none! Bruce and Hubert are athletic encyclopedias, dem know everything down to the temperature in the stadium when a record was set. 🤣

Also Ricardo Chambers he is very good in sports commentary

@@tracey-annwisdom2874 mi actually laugh out loud inna real life.

@@codew2467 But a di truth, don’t? 🤣 I love them for it.

@Tracey-ann wisdom you crack me up, so on point wuth that comment. I love it! Big up!

Yes yes yes

Damn

Hydel has quality but lacks depth that is the reason why they have not won Girls Champs yet. Hydel has quality and range but lacks depth

McAnuff is never mentioned when we talk about potential for the future but she is a force to be reckoned with. Level-headed, smooth - a silent assassin. She’s clearly a good leader too as the Hydel captain at Champs. If she continues to pursue athletics in the future, I think she can be one of the 400m greats.

@@barrybel8168 They’re gonna get there soon. Need to up their recruiting.

@@tracey-annwisdom2874 it is refreshing to see "they're" in its correct usage.

I said this in another thread if you watch the Hydel girls, their running mechanics/form is very smooth and efficient which is kinda telling what they focus on in training. They might not have the numbers like Edwin Allen but the quality and versatility of talent is second to none.

The way how she runs it coaches will try to drop her in 4x400s and Hill might be up for that discussion now aswell.

@@beistrong8635 If Lyston and Hill take up scholarship in the USA they will have no choice but to run the 400. The American coaches always have there sprinters running the 400m.

That's why they should stay home .American college work load is long a heavy especially if you're a multifaceted athlete. Look what they're doing to Akera Nugent running the 100m and 100mh 10 minutes apart in a national championship

@@uhuru27 She asked her coach to do it based on her interview.

@@uhuru27 I train in Jamaica and USA, Jamaica have the hardest training you will ever get

Try youtube lots of documentaries

very talented island

College level is on a different level.

The top 2 teams in the high school girls 4 x 100 ran faster times than the colllege women

Yes....u thought so too. But they have a time limit to interview them as well

@@clarke4400 That time limit shouldn't be that they get the mic to suck on immediately after the race is done.

Thank you

Exactly

No 3 leg was lyston anchor was hill

@@shirleystaple3432 3rd leg was kerrica

Finally someone said it

So Lyston anchored?

@@Tylaw2006 yes

@@Tylaw2006 yes Lyston anchored

Cause I was like he his mixed up

@@Tylaw2006 no lyston ran the 3 leg hill on the anchor leg

They are trained from basic school

Please remember relay you can switch all 4 runners now and with the thousands of runners at the meet you affi see wit dem. We done know who was running where and the interviewer corrected it. Maybe dem can wait till di runners can stand up b4 di interview😅

@@beistrong8635 Of course I remember. I know it can be hard but come on that was a big mix up. This is a championship of America race. These girls aren't new here. I wouldn't be so annoyed if it wasn't a consistent pattern across so many Penn Relays. But also, it's their job and this was one of the biggest races of the entire meet. Regardless of it was a Jamaican or American school they should have known who was running, and yes people can make mistakes or not realize there was a switch up, but at least one of them should have known enough to correct that whilst they are still running, this was a 4x4. The race organizers need to do better briefings especially for these big races. I know they only said Oneika's name wrong because it was spelt wrong on the the sheet. You can see the wrong spelling on the results website. Again, all of this can be avoided if they get commentators who at least know the big athletes.

You think a Jamaican commentator would know all the athletes from American schools? Your delusion has to be innate. You think people are keeping track of athletes they're seeing once a year, especially when thousands are competing. Jamaicans obsessing over HS athletes doesn't mean anyone else gives af. Get a clue.

@@seanwilson5516 Uh yes. Usually the do. They know times etc because they follow ATHETICS the sport.

@@seanwilson5516 you'd almost be right if the American athletes were competing on the international stage and doing as well as Jamaicans. All these girls have competed on the big stage and won so making this mistake is pretty bad. Especially seeing as the Carifta games just happened where they won and did well in that too.

Me second you 😁

I wouldn’t say Briana is a non traditional 400 runner. She always anchors hydel 4x4 and in her younger days, she was a 400 runner

@@fitsroyrandall3714 heavy work load and we have u20 later this year

@@Maitland5 actually I wouldn’t say she has a heavy load. I think our top juniors have been managed properly this year. Only at champs Briana lyston did the double. Tia and Tina have only been running the 100 and relays.

400 running is part of their training she good at this distance

Let's be fair. Jamaican commentators have great knowledge of their local and Caribbean athletes so they would be able to do a much better commentary. If they were to do commentsry on US high school athletes, the'd be out of their depth as well but I do love our commentators.

@@breadbutter4221 Absolutely not true. If you are a commentator it is your job to research and find the names. That is your job as a commentator.

@@normanweiz2646 My view still stands. It is their duty to research I agree to do an efficient job in informing viewrers/listeners but very few are competent at researching, remembering and commenting. Our own Jamaican commentators would be out of their depth if they were to spesk on all the athletes and competitors from the American school. After a time yes they would get it but other than that, one will never get the depth of discourse

@@breadbutter4221 The thing is we have truly world class commentators, analysts & statisticians commenting on T&F in Jamaica. Not a fair comparison. I appreciate the hell out of Hubert Lawrence, Ricardo Chambers, Lance Whittaker, Bruce James etc.

She is if all goes well Alyson Felix 2.0. Effortless covering distance,so graceful.

Same thing I was thinking. She was just cruising.

Kerricka also clocked a 12.71 over the hurdles.extremely fast.

@@anclark2063 kerrica hill pb is 12.71

@@andrahewitt532 sorry my mistake

@Raefer while reading your stats, I had to look if u were Bruce 😆

@@kevin7799 I know Bruce well. We go waaay back

The commentators may get the running orders before the races and at the last moment the coaches will change that order unbeknownst to the commentators ...it happens at times!

@@Mr67marco That is the reason you need Jamaican commentators like Bruce James, Hubert Lawrence et al to comment on the race. Even if you switch the athletes Jamaican commentators won't miss they know the athletes inside out. I find the American commentators boring. They could have even put Ato Boldon to commentate.

When will the national senior teams compete?

They either keep on mispronouncing the school names and mixing up who is on which leg.

Well, sir not so fast - the twins and Serena are still in class 1 next year. Edwin Allen only loose Brandy Hall. They have 2 other gifted class 1 girls who are very good sprinters who could individually make the 100m final and did not run individual races at champs this year. It is going to be interesting next year.

Who will they replace her with?This Hydel team will be te class 1 team for next year. I didn't saw a Brandy Hall replacement I class 2 this year for Edwin Allen while Allana Reid and Kerica Hill will join Lyston in class1. .

They have the talent but lack the numbers to beat Edwin Allen.

@@uhuru27 I think Hydel will lose the hurdler ....(look at the sprinters who did the medley relay for Edwin .... Brandy was the slowest of the big four .... bear in mind coach dyke can also transition the 400m Trini girl ... it is going to be epic.

@@uhuru27 Edwin Allen had an alternative on that team named Tonian Forbes, she won the u17 200m at Carifta trial 2020. I don't see her this season.

Alina Patterson, what were you smoking.... Even the blind would realize that the teams that came first and second were from Jamaica... It was also mentioned by the commentators...... 😂

The coaches need to give the updated running order to the commentators.To avoid this mix up, the organizers need to get the coaches to comply

With so much talent Kerica should not go to the US college system they would have her run everyone of those event. Indoor and outdoor every frigging week from January to June. She should go to Utech and transition at her pace

@@uhuru27 I totally agree

Good problem to have. I love it!!!

@@uhuru27 I feel the same, and for Brianna too. Don’t want them to get burned out before they can make a career out of their talents.

@@tracey-annwisdom2874 they all won't stay, some will go, our girls are doing extremely well at the moment.

Grace Foods have sponsored Penn Relays for decades due to the large Jamaican attendees and athletes.

@@homedecorbudgetista , there are more American athletes than Jamaican. I'm not sure why more American companies aren't sponsoring the competition
