I admit, it’s been a (very) long time since I followed track recruiting.
But these are some really impressive times.

Track Recruiting
- Thread starter Aclone
- Start date
Who was the woman that ran track at ISU for one year and then transferred somewhere south? This was maybe 5 years ago or so. She is from Iowa, kicked all sorts of arse at the high school level, and was thought to be a great get for the Cyclones. I was curious how her collegiate career ended up.
Yes, quite impressive recruiting class for Iowa State this year. McClain from Dowling, Lathom from Spirit Lake, Becker from Lisbon. Then toss in Jones from Kennedy (via UNI) and Iowa State will have a nice group of kids to compliment the every powerful mid and long distance group.
Being from the eastern side of the state all we hear about is: Woody this for Iowa, Iowa Hurdlers, Big 10 champs etc etc.
Sudbury has certainly recruited to fill the holes.

I still feel sick thinking of track practice. That was 23 years ago.
Kid from my area (east of STL) going to Clones. Just won the largest class 1600 and 3200.

Wind speed was +5.6 m/s. The entire field of 8 finalists broke 11.00. That wind speed is nearly triple the legal wind speed for record purposes and NCAA/USATF qualifying. IAHSAA will recognize the record though.
Ended up at Alabama. Now runs 400/400H. Has not matched her high school bests in any of her four events.

Interesting. Thank you.

She should be capitalizing from that on a certain fans only site!!
ISU is great at the distance events, but really need to up the sprinting to go after a National Title.
That’s never going to happen. Outside of Oregon, track is dominated by southern schools as sprinters, jumpers and most throwers don’t want to train in sub freezing temps half the spring.
Was she clean in HS?Ended up at Alabama. Now runs 400/400H. Has not matched her high school bests in any of her four events.

Many believe she was not and point to her slowing down in college as a degree of proof
I agree to a certain extent. The Hawks have a decent sprint crew, but we dominate them in XC.
Defintely an uphill fight.
