A&M signees that competed were distance runners Madison Peters, Staucie Lees, and Penelope Gracey! Pole Vaulter Nico Signirelli went 16 feet! And Yierra Flemings who ran a crazy time in the 300 hurdles!

The relays had some crazy times! Humble Summer Creek has a girl run a 53 and a 54 and another a 2:09 400… there 4x400 time soon will be insane! Jelani Watkins LSU football signee ran a 10.22 100! Baylor signee ran a 13.55 in the high hurdles, while Georgia signee ran a 13.73 and a 36.9 in the 110/300 hurdles and long jumped 24'7!! The relays were crazy!

That 300 hurdle time for Yierra Flemings is number 1 in the nation and number 3 all time in Texas

Tulsa has Koonts as well as Sarah Morefield. Pretty stout, but the Ags are killing it.

I'll be up in Fort Worth this weekend watching my daughter run her first outdoor 800 for Tulsa.

Also, those time above are amazing for early March.

Assuming you mean 2:09 800? That is 2 seconds better than any time in Region 3 from all last year.

Yes by Tiffany Mugubi of Humble Summer Creek! Her best was a 2:16 last school year at the Victor Lopez Classic but she only ran a 2:22 at regionals! She did run a 2:13 in the summer and ran a 54.7 INDOORS earlier this year! Apparently signed to Howard University… I'm sure she'll hear some offers and reevaluate that decision if she keeps dropping ridiculous times

Thanks. My daughter was the third best runner at Regionals, with a 2:14 to win district, but ran 2:25 and finished 9th. That regional meet plays with your head. She finished freshman indoor with a 2:16, so should be headed for a good outdoor.

BtW, Mugubi is from Shadow Creek, not Summer Creek. They don't even care about XC at Shadow Creek.

Mugubi has a 5K PR of 22:18. My PR (at age 50) is 21:51. She is a pure track athlete.

My bad! I got the Creeks messed up lol! Summer Creek is loaded so I assumed she was from there! But yeah those track times are crazy, she's purely a 400/800 star, keep her away from cross country


and a 2:16 indoors for a freshman is actually really really good! She's in for a great spring if she's already in that shape! I wish her well!

Recruiting news but looks like we added a strong transfer! I'm assuming for next year but she has a PR of 22.09 in the 200 and 51.21 in the 400! Latasha Smith! She's been UCF's anchor for a while but is currently injured I believe! This is a great addition! 400 runners always transfer and thrive here!

800 - 2:12

I've been watching some of the results and am just now hearing/seeing Elizabeth Leachman's times (in 5A). Her times are insane.
Consistency: It's only a virtue if you're not a screw-up.

I went to high school and am good friends with Faith's grand uncle. I had no idea Faith was so talented.

She's an amazing runner and amazing student as well! Her best right now is a 53.15 in the 400 and hopefully sub 53 at state! I wish she was an Aggie but going out of state and a degree from Vanderbilt won her over! The valley's best!

Elizabeth Leachman is a once in a lifetime gifted athlete! She is so ahead of the curve and as a sophomore she has so many national records to her name! This past weekend she went 2:08 in the 800, 4:37 in the mile, and 10:00 in the 3200! And she's still 16! At the Texas Relays she ran in the 5,000 invitational against college runners and won by 35 seconds and broke the meet record! I don't know how much she can keep improving but I just hope she stays healthy!! She's going to be a star in this sport if she isn't already! She's gonna put on a show at state! Sub 10 in the 3200

Her grandmother and grand uncle both worked for Lyford ISD, so education has always been important to the family.

Cool tidbit!! She is the greatest valley sprinter of all time! And holds the records for the 100, 200, 400, 4x200, 4x400!

And the greatest valley distance runner of all time is San Juanita Leal of Edinburg North and she's headed to a&m next year! I can't wait to see them both represent the valley at the state meet!

Aggie signees San Juanita Leal, Staucie Lees, and Madison Peters will all be competing in the 3200 at the state meet! With Leal and Lees also competing in the 1600, and Leal tripling up to do the 800 as well! Yierra Flemings qualified in the 100 hurdles, the 400, the long jump, and the triple jump! She won't be contesting the 300 hurdles which she ranked first in the state in!!

Aggie football signee Ernest Campbell will run the 2A 100, 4x100, and do the long jump, Aggie football and track commit Marcus Garcia will throw in the 5A discus! He's a junior with a 183'2 PR!

Marcus Garcia is a 4 star football player out of Denton Ryan who's one of the state's top discus throwers! He qualified in the 5A discus! He has a PR of 183'2

Wish him the best of luck next Friday! Hoping he throws as far as ever, but hoping my athlete throws one centimeter further

He's a senior, but don't see him committed to anyonee. His recruiting will blow up. He dropped 3 seconds off his time in a year.

He has A&M ties! He's coached by James Smith's dad and he went to the same high school as Bobby Grant! Go get him Pat Henry

I am a parent at Kingwood, and I don't even know why Nita Koom-Dadzie didn't run this season. I don't think her teammates did either.

I wonder if NIL is going to start shutting these kids down in HS.
