Same race 1 year ago. Announcers unaware that Whittaker is a high school student.

What I really love is Juliette Whittaker running 1:59.80 yesterday for #2 HS all-time! Hope she makes it to the Farm and doesn't sign a pro contract instead! :-) My goodness, she and Roisin Willis in the same class and both coming to Stanford. Amazing


Here is Juliette's race cued to the right time. She's in lane 2 wearing black. Always fascinated to see an elite mid-D runner with such a "shuffling" stride (low heel kick, low knee drive). It's rare.

It is extremely rare for American HS students to go pro in T&F. And even if she is a "pro," generally she can still run for Stanford with NIL in place.

I was half-joking, and of course it's rare. But it's also rare for a HS student to already be a threat to make an Olympic/WC team. Recent-ish pros straight from HS off the top of my head: Mary Cain, Ajee Wilson, Drew Hunter, Alexa Efraimson, and just last year Hobbs Kessler. I'm probably forgetting a few. Wouldn't surprise me if Colin Sahlman went pro. If Juliette or Roisin were inclined to pursue that route, it's viable.

Cunningham the HJer while in HS.
But rare however hope both Whitaker and Willis get big shoe contacts

Kinda surprised not seeing this posted already - Roisin Willis sets the national HS 800m record, 2:00:03, this weekend Willis's 800m record run


RE: Stanford T&F - EBSteve - 06-06-2022

Thanks for that YouTube video, PalmTree. That was an incredible run! But can someone please explain the purpose of the white flags?

That would signify that no one is running inside their assigned lane and/or cut in too early after the first turn.

But some officials were still raising white flags on the second lap, when assigned lanes weren't a thing anymore.

Except it's not really a record. It's a record for HS girls running in HS meets. Our own HS recruit Whittaker ran under 2 minutes - see earlier in this thread.

To be clear both are Stanford recruits
