Pretty good, we qualified in all events to the World Championships except for the men's 4x400m relay, which we did not compete in.

I’m busy tomorrow, but on Thursday I’ll do updates on here from all the various meets in the past few weeks.

45.89 for Michael Roth in the men’s 400m at the SEC Championships!

Honestly, I’m not sure why we didn’t send a 4x400 squad to World Relays.

IIRC they had a hard time prying guys away from their NCAA teams last year, and had a bunch of restrictions on the ones they did.

 

Perhaps that was part of it, or maybe injuries, or maybe they just didn’t feel they could qualify. 
 

I guess at least they wised up this year and made the mixed a priority.

 

Hopefully the men will keep progressing

77.93m for Camryn Rogers in women’s hammer throw, a little over half a meter under her PB (kind of surprising that she hasn’t gone above 78.62m)
