It Finally Happened... 

For those who are curious, in Jamaica, the High School Boys 4x100 record is 39.08 set by Calabar High School in 2015.

When you don't break the 20+ year standing record only because it just happened that that same race someone beat that record by an even bigger margin 😂

3rd leg was underrated!!

Damn they were moving moving😭. Them Texas high school’s are different

This ravens was crazy! Both 1 and 2 broke the National record

Imagine each of these high schools can only select athletes from their student body, in this case Atascocita has only 3,621 students. Even a college would have upwards of 20,000 older students and can (do) recruit the best from across the world.

Preciate the love total production that’s my high school I graduated last year and I’ve been wanting you to cover us since my junior year ngl but I’m proud of my guys

Let’s shout out whoever record such good footage at a high school race!! 👏👑

Duuuude that anchor was flying. I know he had a good indoor season but seeing him anchor like this was impressive

Both anchors playing football for LSU next year

Tough to tell with the endless edits during the race, but that pass from leg 2 to 3 looked great. Then runner 3 put a move on curve and got ahead of Duncanville. Fair pass from 3 to 4, but the baton was moving at that point. Man, Texas has been cranking out great HS relays for decades.

Ayyyy I raced track at Rice! So much Deja Vu in this video. I broke 4 on that track!

Breaking a record just to not win must be a bitter sweet moment 😂

The entire top 10 list is Texas schools. 8 from the Houston area and 2 from Dallas/Fort Worth

That is a crazy time. I remember back in the day, running it in 41 seconds was extremely fast and would place in a State Meet. They must have atleast 3 runners running 10.5 or under in the 100 meters.

Perfect handoffs.

What about the third place team? Didn't they just miss the 40 second barrier and produce one of the best times ever as well? A little respect to them too please! 😅 Amazing race!!

Thank U thank U for another amazing video again!!! Also I want to reiterate that TEXAS is a haven of world class athletes. Even some of our middle school/ Jr. High athletes are competitive internationally. My Hine town just hosted a track meet named after Deion Minor 400m specialist. A high jumper from the local school broke the state high jump record and then broke his own record that same meet. Watkins is a focused young sprinter. My wife and I have enjoyed watching him compete fiercely with Duncanville, San Antonio Rebels and others. It's always a good show at any sport in TEXAS, but this young man had been progressing steadily each year. My hats off to ya Yung Watkins. Thnx for this excerpt for yet smother amazing TEXAN who is lighting the track on fire 🔥 Peace N Love

I went to high school in Texas in 1990. Things may be different now, but there are two things to note. They can be as old as 21 and still compete. Many schools get away with illegal recruitment. My school got caught 😂.

To break a record like this, not only do have to run like the wind, but you also have to have nearly perfect exchanges. Amazing!

There's something weird about that Rice track. I ran many track meets there as a kid 20 years ago and it always felt like a short track

Three off top ten ran that 4x100 Arascocita,Duncanville, Tompkins Texas don't play everything we do is big

Each leg ran brilliantly, Front side mechanics & clean exchanges … was a pressure meet 😤

Great run! That anchor was absolutely FLYING! But... A sprint record standing for 25 years is ridiculous. Next-Level running. Who was on that Wyatt squad in 1999?

Athletic is one of the most underrated sport ever 😭

Lee's young man are going into video game times. Yes I called the Great Ato bolden! This is crazy 😧😮

Crazy for being HIGH SCHOOL!!!!

Their baton changes were so smooth

Jelani Watkins attended Klein Forest, had no idea he transferred to atascotica

Sprinting USA's future looks promising; to both teams, well done gentleman,well done

I live in Atascocita. They are NOT a prep school. They are a public high school.

How much have the Jamaicans upset American sprinters? They've given them a 10 year depression .

Those guys were really moving!

All of the teams on the top 10 list are from Texas. Eight of them from the Houston area.

Wow the top 10 fastest US times are from Texas! Surprised because I figured Florida and California would have some entries! Go USA

It's crazy how many Texas schools are in this top 10.

Wow, 38.92 is an outstanding time even for NCAA division I schools!

3rd leg was smoking too🔥🔥🔥🔥

That Team Needs Some Milk ❤

Crazy

All them Texas boys on SARMS. Next please

Impressive

Yeah they were flying

🔥🔥

Wish they would have a state vs state relay team. Best in each state go at it

Alltime-athletics lists this as tied for the 2357th best. Scanning the names of some of those teams tied with this over history you see a virtual who's who of sprinting. Don Quarrie (who I got smoked by about that same time), Ron Brown, Donovan Bailey, Tim Montgomery (yeah he was dirty), Ato Boldon and Christian Coleman.

last leg was 8.98 apparently 💀

seeing TRP talk about these guys is getting too close to home man 😂 Houston putting on like they always do

I went to high school in Texas, making it out of regionals was an accomplishment.

Maybe this has something to do with the new passing zone rule where you can now get the baton anywhere between the fly zone and the end of the passing zone so the fastest guys can run a little farther?

I want to know what the last leg time was. He exploded!!

Superstar😂. These athletes should be paying this guy for the amount of hype he applies to them.

Hell the 3rd place team also tied fo the 9th best time all time. So, you had the 1st, 2nd, and 9th best time ALL-TIME in one race. Thats nuts

8 teams under 40 secs. (Not 2)!

Wild race

Incredible….. Just once they should find a way to bring those Texas Florida and Georgia kids to the Penn Relays.

cool music

i was there

4x100 is NOT a 100M race...

Amazing race, but both anchors invade the outer lane, they could have been disqualified.

Bro finally made a video on jelani

One thing you learn from High School T&F Texas team doesn’t play around. I went to Texas Relay back in 2008 and OMG they are fast fast 🙃 😂

Yo @totalrunningproductions a runner just broke the 800m high school record. Btw he obliterated the record.

It's actually crazy how high school kids run faster than world records of the women's 400m relay. Then you have people saying gender doesn't matter in sport

Who is Cal State Fullerton?

Cal State Fullerton?

3rd leg was smokin

Thought this was going to be another click bait by trp but nah this was actually crazy

There were quite a few impressive performances at this meet. Boys and girls 3k times were legit.

A CORRECTION IS NEEDED. The 2022 NCAA 4x100 rankings has 2023 in the headline. Great work though. As Always...

Make more videos on Jelani Watkins

Damn are ALL the top high schools in Texas

you are wrong. the record is 39.0 set by Calabar at Penn relays. These guys would have to run a perfect race again at Penn relays to beat the Jamaican teams. the Jamaicans are faster foot speed and will match any handoff that this high school guys did. So match up they would have a hard time beating the Jamaican teams. See the Jamaicans high school run in two sections. under 17 and under 20. Some of the school fastest runners do run under 17. SO when they combine their fastest teams it will be much faster than their high school champs . So expect these guys will run sub 40sec. if the weather is right. Jamaica high school I don't see running sub 39. but I don't think this team will run sub 39 at a Penn relay into the weather condition in Philly either. One thing the Jamaicans are very good at is baton change, they will match those change over very easily.

It's literally March wth

Say, waaaaaat

When will we get distance running news because, honestly, sprint events are boring.

Bad clock or start placing?

What was the drug testing policy?

👍💪

Weren't they recruited for this team, most high schools just have to work with what they have. Not taking anything away from their achievements, just asking.

The Watkins kid an be great in the sprints if he gives up football. Doing both in collage doesn't work today like in Bob Hayes time. Football requires heavy weight training meaning you put o n weight an lose flexibility

Better check between them toes

Unnecessary jelani watkins glaze But still good content

🫡

NILSU 🐅

By the way the “cita” is not pronounced like it is Spanish 😂

Texas becoming quite the sprint Mecca.

Must be the new shoes, this kind of improvement should not be possible.

Was an anti-doping test performed?

What was their previous fastest time ? If there is suddenly a huge improvement, well, then something wrong here. Clock malfunction ? Roy b, CapeTown south africa 🇿🇦

To be fair, there is no drug testing in HS so although this is amazing, I don't put much weight into non tested HS performances considering how easy nowadays to get TRT.

Something seems fishy here. Check their piss and their birth certificates

How old are they?

Look at the last exchange? The last runner steps out of his lane. The time they break this time, should count as the national record not this one

Maybe Jelani becomes first high school student athlete to legally run under 10🤷🏿‍♂️

I don’t understand he told us something crazy and 100 m and you show a picture of the athletes in the starting blocks, but then you go on to describe a 400 m relay. You truly are screwed up.

Unsubscribing and blocking. Tired of this format of "OH MY GOD UNBELIEVABLE" that you are putting in the title. Stop it. Just report what is going on and stop trying to sensationalize everything, cripes you are better than that.

We need these guys at Penn Relays to silence the Jamaican crowd occasionally

was it wind legal ?
