tyre johnson over garrett rowe? k..
agree not even close. did u consider state and postseason?
Makes no sense. Rowe came back from an early season injury to be #2 in all divisions at state in a blazing fast time. Johnson was #43 in CA, 30 seconds behind. Rowe follows up with a great run at Nike Nationals while Johnson was two places from dead last at Footlocker Nationals.
No disrespect to Johnson who is excellent but Rowe had the best year of any CCS runner in a long time.
The All-CCS teams were chosen by a panel of coaches. The whole season was used as basis for the selections following the state meet and before the Nxn and Footlocker races.
On the contrary, I think Tyre Johnson very much deserved to be first. He consistently ran better than Rowe all throughout the season. At CCS he ran 1 second faster than Rowe but was running in conditions that were almost 20 degrees hotter.
At the state meet, Rowe ran in the best early morning weather.. Johnson ran when it was much hotter and was also just "going for the win". Keep in mind he ran something like 15:15 at Clovis Invitational a while back, where he also beat Rowe in that race.
Finally yes he had a bad race at Footlocker, but you have to account for things like that (look at Allegra Mayer who is on the Honorable Mention even after running almost 23 minutes at CCS).
Johnson consistently ran better than Rowe all season. Hard to compare Johnson's state time because it was in hotter conditions and like said befor, he was just "going for the win."
Another thing is that Katie Nast ran something like 25 minutes at the state meet, but she's still on the honorable mention. You have to take into consideration ALL of the races of the year, not just one or two bad ones.
The CCS award is a judgment call. Your HS career will ultimately be judged by how fast you ran, and how you did in big races like state. Nobody will care even 2 years from now how hot it was at CCS when comparing guys separated by one second, who didn't even race one another, and who may not have been going full out.
You should celebrate Johnson's state D4 title AND the fact that another CCS kid, Garrett Rowe ran a historically fast time at Woodward. Don’t fret for Rowe because he will probably get Junior Runner of the Year on the all-state team which is plenty of recognition and more prestigious anyway.
Rowe's PRs are already way faster than Johnson’s at the two courses CCS people and the record books care about most, Crystal and Woodward. If he feels slighted, he can extend the margin even further over Johnson next year.
Don't agree with any point of view here especially JP for three reasons
#1 Rowe's 14:56 at CC to win the toughest league in CCS
#2 15:03 at Woodward. Fastest CCS run in many years and by a wide margin (like 20 seconds) over famous graduates like Sitler and Abdalah.
#3 13th place at Nike Nationals in a time under the prior course record.
Three runs in one season well beyond anything Johnson did this season or in his career. When has Johnson made it on any all-time lists? Rowe's on Crystal, Woodward, and now Portland Meadows all in one season. Fast races in the biggest events. No disrespect to the coaches poll or Johnson but Rowe had a way better season and it wasn't even close.
