Don't get me wrong. This site is all about Penn State and my current hot topic is PSU's 800 M past and present. But I just have to admit that
Robbie Andrews of Virginia is a special runner. Stayed in the back of the field for the first 80% of the race and then passed
everyone in the last 23 seconds to take the title in a time only 1/100 of a second off the Championship record! America has four college 800 M runners at 1:45.xx or better and all of them are true sophomores. Have I mentioned my favorite race is the 800M? My PR 1:58 (in HS) not withstanding.
Cas Loxsom ran a great race. He finished fourth in a new Penn State Record of
1:45.31! Both Cas and
Sam Borchers will be representing PSU at the upcoming USATF Championships.
And
Joe Kovacs finished 3rd in the Shot Put!
Blake Eaton took 9th place, so there's 2 more All-Americans in the mix. Way to go, guys!
