WILD Finish In 4xMile Championship At Penn Relays 

Providence was literally trapped and couldn't get through when he tried. I saw how Wisconsin blocked him in and was stubbornly refusing to move over, so he was forced to move, and also ruined it for UNC. Villanova was just as annoying as Wisconsin at the end.

LMFAO I SAW RHAT

Just having fun out there fr

must be grimmacing, bros in pain.

Looked like he elbowed Wisconsin to get through. Talk about the thrill and the agony.

should be a DQ thats just poor etiquette

What exactly was he supposed to do? He was trapped inside.

He was stuck inside and made efforts to get out peacefully. Sometimes you gotta be physical. He clearly had a kick left and wanted to use it. Too bad people stumbled tho.

@@ZWill07 He was supposed to follow the rules. “A competitor may cut in front of another runner, provided that the overtaking runner has one full stride.” The Providence guy cut in front of 2 runners and, judging by the way he ran into them, didn’t have a full stride on either.

@@ZWill07 he was trapped inside? He should have been more strategic earlier on and positioned himself better, not get aggressive

Exactly. providence interferred with Villanova TWICE in the last lap alone. Then he just bulldozed his way out of the box that he put himself in. When he did that he just hammered the Wisconsin runner who lost his balance and fell taking another with him. A little elbow rubbing is ok, but this idiot just pushed people out of the way and cut in before he was allowed. I would have had some words with the judges on this one.

shoulda been DQ'd

Seriously. Getting boxed in is apart of the sport. The solution? Get around not bulldoze your way through. And tapping g he shoulder of your opponent to move? Wtf? You want him to say “o sorry lemme get out of your way for you there”

@@12bestskater12 Lmaoo he was like “uhmmm excuse me but do you mind letting me through

@@konrdchristensen2111 I'm glad you also noticed that he put himself in that box. He pushed and cut people earlier to get inside rail behind the leader. Then didn't like his placement as he thought he had a kick. He really didn't but he cut off a good four or five others so they couldn't run around him.

Wr 15:49.08 Dublin 17.8.85

I wouldn’t define it as US middle distance running if not all of these guys are from America

@@milesclisham5591 but the American college system is a big part of the reason they're good

OR you I mean

@@milesclisham5591 like you

@@leocossham and you

Please tell me that it wasn’t actually poor jack salisbury

@@matthewkelly6012 yes it was! He fended off the Great Drew Hunter all the way to the line in High School. I couldn’t believe splitting 4:08 in HS and not winning the COA @ Penn. He is fearless and I would always put money on him. I ran myself and always respected someone who wanted to lead and not just sit and kick. The testament of a true champion.

He forced his way through, but I don't think he caused Wisconsin and UNC to go down.

completely agreed, providence dude messed up so many of other peoples race

@@JF-dy2dr you're not allowed to violently break stride like that - his lateral change from lane 1 to lane 2 while boxed in is not permitted to prevent exactly what happened. He bullied his way out of being boxed in and in the process, shoved Wisc out wide leading to UNC & Wisc tripping feet.

@@2eggrollz I agree he started the whole mess but I think he cut off Penn, who slowed, which caused Wisconsin who was right behind Penn to jump outside where they got tangled with UNC. In slo mo I do not see Providence pushing Wisconsin (but if someone has other info I will defer).

agreed. providence anchor made my stomach turn it was disgusting watching him push people out of his way

16:17.47

Because Wisco blocked him in and refused to move. Hopefully he realized what a bad idea it was to try and block in a faster runner.

Fantastic running form during his final sprint. Whoever taught him, Cole Hocker needs to hire him.

🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂

Facts hahaha

The commentary was cringeworthy too

Like i said if its not a championship or record breaker they dont care so this upload dont even count

Yet a good race

That was ran on Friday. Not the same race

Run to win.

When they decided to expand the track they had to expand in instead of out

@@qivty5268 so are lanes 1-3 too short?

Yeah I think it’s less then 1/4 mile and they use it for sprint relays but I’m not sure

Lane 4 is a full mile 3 is not

It’s intentional and allows the first 3 lanes not to be used in the 200 or 400…because the curve is too tight to keep those lanes competitive with the outter lanes.

mile

mile = 1609 metres. 4 laps x 400m = 1600 metres. And then maybe they add the other 36 metres.

They’re literally sprinting the whole time. How is it pointless? Shush.

Looks like it was providence that pushed Wisconsin out

It was the Providence runner who aggressively cut outside, then the Penn runner had to slow a bit forcing the Wisconsin runner veering wide to avoid the Penn guy, thus the collision.

I was thinking the same thing. In fact, I don’t recall the last time I watched this many teams in a relay.

He shoved and nearly tripped others to get into that box situation. Watch at about 14:45 to 15:00 up above. He lets Texas go by him on the outside so he swings wide and nearly trips up Villanova because he wants the inside rail position behind the leader. On the last lap, he looks at his watch, realizes the tempo and starts to shove his way out of his box. I guess because he thinks the leader won't be kicking early enough for his liking? At least he got passed right at the end so he had to settle for third. It really was the third leg that caused the problem with some teams settling into a slower pace and others really gutting it out to get back into the lead pack.

There’s only like 3 or 4 teams that have ever went sub 16

Oregon had a professional on there team?

Hey man why don't go out there with your friends and run a sub 16?

I was in the crowd. It was hot/humid that weekend.

Breaking 16 mins in 4 x 1 mile is incredibly rare.
