Overall, an extremely entertaining meet. There was Peter Callahan's insane triple in Class A (1:53 leg on the 4x800, 1:51.22 in the open 800, and 4:15.30 in the 1600), Hillcrest's dominance in Class 2A, and Jeff Thode's state meet record and nation-leading 4:05.17 in the Class 3A 1600 to name a few.

Special thanks to Dan Coldagelli who helped me cover the meet and Nathan Atkinson for supplying the videos that were missing.

Agreed, field events gets no love here or in track and FIELD. I know its easier to record track events because you can stay in one place. I would've loved to see video on Block, Riley, and the rest of the state champions in the field. I recommend for next year recording 2 jumps/throws of the top 8 qualifiers marks in jumps/throws because state champion always is decided in prelims. For PV/HJ record only the final 2 competitors. Afterwards only post whats necessary. What do you think Knewitz?

its a basic zip file, save it to your computer and extract the files. If it is invalid, make sure you downloaded the entire file by checking the size of the file you downloaded to the size of the file listed on that webpage.
