    "Texas Tech Men's Track & Field achieves national lead

    KCBD Digital

    Feb 12, 2018 02:24 PM

    Provided by Texas Tech Athletics

    The Texas Tech men's track & field program received its first ever first-place ranking in the latest U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association indoor rankings.

    This is the first time that a Texas Tech program has been ranked first since the Lady Raider Basketball team received a No. 1 ranking on January 12, 2004.

    The ranking marks the fifth-consecutive week that the Red Raiders have been in the top 10, and the fourth-straight week of sitting in the top five......"

    "Two Texas Tech athletes are turning heads in the college sports world with their recent successes. Brothers and Lubbock natives, Trey and*Jarrett Culver, have propelled into the limelight of their respective sports. Trey, award-winning high jumper for the Texas Tech Track and Field team, and Jarrett, guard for the Texas Tech Men's Basketball team, have become leaders on their teams and are now at the forefront of Texas Tech Athletics.
    *
    Now a senior,*Trey Culver*continues to rise to the occasion, soaring to the top of the collegiate high jump world. With his performances in 2016 and 2017, Culver earned a spot in Texas Tech lore by winning the Indoor National Championship le and Outdoor Big 12 Championship both years. Most recently, Trey jumped an impressive 7 feet, 7 ¾ inches, breaking the Texas Tech indoor record and placing him fourth all-time on the NCAA high jump record list. Now, looking for his third National Championship le -- a feat never accomplished -- he goes into his final season with hopes of raising the bar further......"

    Texas Tech was never a major player in the sport.
    So wrong. So often. About pretty much everything.

    But there are three kinds of acceleration, hahahahaha~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    On track forums ya talk about the athletes, the times, the action...NOBODY make that NOBODY...talks ..but there are three kinds of acceleration....ya see NOBODY CARES~~~~~~~~~~


    NCAA track is better than pro track because of the relays and the team concept.

    To not know anything about the action, the athletes, the times, means ya don't know the sport. To ramble on about motion and lanes and that sort of thing is stupid.

    I can talk every athlete of merit in the history of the sport, I couldn't care less about acceleration, motion, lanes and all that silly that NOBODY would ever talk about. Now if I coached sprinters, but.,...I don't. AND....I was a sprinter and my coach never talked all that silly .

    OLONGAPO, the Philippines, April 17—*Amid the garish bars that cater to American servicemen here, a young pros ute with y pink hair greets a circle of acquaintances with the reminder, ''Hey, we're dying.''

    The young woman and her acquaintances are among the 26 pros utes who have tested positive for the AIDS virus among the thousands of women who work the lively streets outside Subic Bay Naval Station.

    Many of the 26 remain at work even as they wait for the symptoms of illness to appear. Rather than ban them from the bars, Philippine officials have encouraged the infected pros utes to have their customers use condoms. The officials acknowledge that many of the women still work the streets.

    The Filipino women and American men at Olongapo, many of whom take part in the sex trade despite the presence of the AIDS virus, are the latest generation in a nearly century-long connection between the United States Navy and the city that lives off it. Dependent Role

    Few places in the world have had as long and as intimate a relationship with the United States as Olongapo.

    To Filipino opponents of the American bases, the dependent role of Olongapo is symbolic of an unhealthy relationship between the United States and its former colony. The lease on the bases is being renegotiated by the two countries.

    The opponents of the bases say the spread of acquired immune deficiency syndrome and the refusal of the United States to take responsibility for infected Filipinos is a further illustration of the nature of the relationship. Although the United States Navy has twice conducted screenings of the registered pros utes in Olongapo, the United States has not offered to care for those who have tested positive for the AIDS virus.

    The Americans have been at Subic Bay for 90 years, and for 90 years this has been a one-industry town - what is delicately known as the ''entertainment industry.''

    ''If this place wasn't here, this would all be jungle,'' said Casey Jones, a seaman from South Carolina who owns a bar here.

    Today, with a transient population of 275,000, Olongapo is home to 300 bars and nightclubs and 6,000 registered pros utes. According to some estimates, that number swells to 16,000 when the fleet is in........

    It was the last game that Bo Jackson played in, vs the Bengals.

    So Bo breaks off tackle and is gone. In hot pursuit a Bengal cornerback......he catchs Bo at the five, the TV announcers are stunned.Who can run down Bo Jackson? Well it was former SMU 400m sprinter Rod Jones, a national class talent.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    When Jim Brown (FB) first broke into the NFL he was paired with Big10sprint/hurdlers champion (RB) Bobby Mitc . Both of them were averaging over 5 yards a carry. The classic thunder & lighting. Both in the HOF (Mitc became a WR with the Redskins)

    Could we have a race between the Brassica olercea genus species of edible plants. We also know some of them as the cruciferous vegetables. I will pick the runners and you lane em up and race them by your taste for each. Thanks

    Broccoli
    Cauliflower
    Cabbage
    Brussel Sprouts
    Collared Greens
    Kale
    Savoy
    gai lan

    When you assign them a lane please be sure to rate them by date of apparent artificial selection and then reassign them a lane by your analysis of dates.

    Then, yet another list arranged based on the Vitamin C content as we think this helps to inhibit various cancers in concert with other precise vitamin content.

    Then if you could again reassign them a lane based on the part of the plant ex. leave, stem, root, seed/flower.. Etc that they have been specifically bred for eating.

    I now know you are fantastic at listing runners by college, times, country of origin,... So this should interest all of us.

    Thanks

    This could be medically and tastefully useful to your vast readership.

    By soil acidity each requires.

    We can do a new family each day and then perhaps mix and match them later.

    Would you mind if we laned up the night shades next?

    Dude, what does that have to do with track?

    So who will be the favorite to win the NCAA 60? Ya don't have a clue do ya?

    I;ve never seen you actually talk about the athletes in the sport, why is that?

    Keep an eye on that USC 4x4 team, they set a new NCAA indoor record.

    Houston's Elijah Hall put on a show yesterday at the Texas Relays.

    He ran a great second leg on the 4x1, broke the race open.

    Won the 200 in a great 20.11 for March.

    Came from way back on a 4x2 anchor for the win.

    It's looking like the USA has new sprinter.

    Legit shot at both the 4x4 and 4x1 NCAA records going down at the NCAA's. USC in the 4x4*** and Houston in the 4x1. Both have teams superior to the ones holding the records.

    Track is big in the SEC and the Pac12. Not too much in the Big12 anymore or other places.

    Texas Tech was never a major player in the sport. They've have few notable tracksters.

    Yep, both records went down just like I thought they would. The amazing thing was this was done on a wet track.

    Tomorrow is the womens turn, watch 400 hurdler Sydney McClaughlin from Kentucky, yep, special.

    LSU's Aleia Hobbs wins the 100m barring injury.

    USC's Rai Benjamin split a 43.5, that gives the Trojans four sub 44.00 sprinters in school history (talking alum) only Baylor can match that.
