All the props to Patrick Devers, a 40+ second PR plus breaking a 42 year old NCAA record is incredible. The top 10 ran absolutely amazing times so Patrick is a very very very deserving winner.
@@mikemagyar3222, right. Mantz's best was 28:18.18 before this. He's a junior so we can expect him to do better next year. That was a heck of a race. I can hardly imagine running like that for almost 1/2 hour.
12:59 Commentator gushing about Kiptoo..."He's toying with them." Kiptoo immediately fades and the commentator never says a word about this. Brilliant. Regardless...great race!
What a great race. The cool weather led to the best 10K race in NCAA Championship history!!! Congratulations to Dever, Mantz, Nur, Brandt, Hamer, Masai, Hicks, Wildschutt, Mwaura, and Rodriguez for going under the old meet record of 28:01.30
Mantz’s attention was on Brandt being on his shoulder and so he shift to right side of the first lane since it’s kind of hard anyways to hug the first lane when you’re kicking. But Dever was at the right place and the right time and just has to hug the first lane and one more gear to take this one. So many moves, admirable finishes.
Congrats to Dever on running a masterful race and getting first! It should be mentioned that among the many reasons that set up the massive meet record from several athletes, the biggest one has to be Connor Mantz. He has never slowed down to run a race tactfully, and likely never will. He goes balls to the walls every moment, from the gun to the bell to the finish line, and if you want a chance at beating him you have no choice but to do the same.
Kiptoo probably burned out from foolishly running 60 second first 400’s at the West preliminary meet and running the conference 5k/steeple/10k triple at very hard efforts.
This is where good coaching comes in. Rest is important. He’s probably going to prepare differently in the future. He can take credit for setting up the record pace though!
@@badmusicchannel5519 na you never give up inside rail. it's still clean not your fault someone allowed themselves to be boxed in. Hold your position and charge make em work for it
It's always funny when the leader pushes towards the outside lanes to prevent people passing on the last straightaway, then gets passed on the inside.. LOL
So true! Rambling on about a coach while the best 10k in NCAA history unfolds. Interviewing a jumper in the key final minutes. Missing that Dever ran a perfect race, positioning himself in a stacked field and staying relaxed. They only noticed him with a few seconds to go.
@@badmusicchannel5519 that coach that were “rambling” about deserved to be talked about. He’s the best college coach of all time, any sport. He put Arkansas on the map in running, and in the process pushed every other college to be better.
I've always felt that the 10k is just too long a race to have as a track event. They should just have the 1500 and 5000. And then, outside of college, the marathon (on the road). I ran a 10k track race once, and it was the worst half hour+ of my life.
It's all about NCAA eligibility, not actual academic year. Katie Izzo at Arkansas is marked as a junior too but is a grad student there, it's not that uncommon.
In most Countries Universities are places of academic study. They DO NOT offer scholorships for students to play sport. The entire USA system is based on NCAA sports. So if foreign athletes want a "free" education, and they are very good runners, one way to get that is to accept a free ride scholorship at an American University. The US system is based around Colleges competing against each other and collectively. So the Colleges lure athletes from outside USA so they can get better points/results. It works well for sprinters BUT, sadly, destroys many middle and longer distance runners. Mainly by forcing them to over-race. Multiple event for sprinters are ok. But making middle/long distance runners compete in two of three events per meeting destroys most of them over 4 years. Also, making them compete both Indoors and Outdoors adds to the stress and over-racing. From the evidence we see, approx 90-95% of middle distance runners "retire" as soon as they finish College at around age 24 when they wouldn't hit their peak until late 20's/30. They get burnt out.

If I was in that race behind Brandt I’d be losing my mind looking at his bib falling off for 27-30minutes

I misread that title thought it said 42-year old broke NCAA 10k record I was like wow a 42-year-old running in college.
I love Alex Masai! Such an underrated athlete!
That’s my teammate 🔥🔥🔥

Yeah, he’s so much fun to watch. He has a Steve Prefontain style of running which turns very race into a real competition.

Foolish and that guy from Alabama is worse.

Lol check kiptoo at 2:08 😂😂 only to lose
Manz totally could have won if he sealed off lane 1 instead of moving in. Dever would’ve had to go in lane 3 to get around.
Tactical blunder on the home stretch. Mantz is a strong closer and he got out kicked anyway.
Perhaps he prefers a clean finish
@@badmusicchannel5519 Honorable if that's the case
Yeah wtf he let him right through ont he inside, this covid 6 feet thing must apply on the track too I guess
@@badmusicchannel5519 na you never give up inside rail. it's still clean not your fault someone allowed themselves to be boxed in. Hold your position and charge make em work for it
Imagine running hard 4 miles and sprinting the last one? My respect to these athletes
Agree. These guys work their asses off but it's 6.25 miles.
It’s closer to 6 but yes
6.2 miles
I’m glad all of you looked up the exact number, you guys are google’s friends.
@@datcoolguy44 it’s common sense if you run track
Mantz is so good, but he just did all the work for the lead pack and paid the price in the final 200
he should’ve raced smarter
How did he do all the work?? Kiptoo and Masai literally led for the first 23 laps, and Mantz only pushed the last 2
@@cooperneeble2712 haha that’s what I was thinking. Mantz put in some work but that was his move to win the race and it didn’t work
lol he didn’t do that much work
@@skylersandoval2974 Maybe put more distance initially from the pack? Fast pace though, so that's hard...
Patty D is a baller
Who else thought that it said a 42 year old broke a meet record?
It's always funny when the leader pushes towards the outside lanes to prevent people passing on the last straightaway, then gets passed on the inside.. LOL
Super run by my man Mantz. Winner very deserved.
Tremendous kick that final 150m
Javahn Harrison, what a nice well-spoken guy! Best of luck.
Strongest ,Mr Tulsa 💪💪👍👍
How can you even critique these guys. Sub 28 min 10k runners and people have the guts to try and tell them how to race HAHA
What kind of shoes were those
Dragonflies
Extremely experienced finish
Let’s give it up for that producer cutting to the long jump winner with three laps to go in a twenty-five lap race, hu? Nice job there guy!
Dever channeling his inner Billy Mills!!
Lol is it that guy’s job to hold out water for the runners? 10:08. This ain’t a marathon
funny when no one takes it then just see him put his arm down like bruh u left me hangin
this was hilarious
Every year these guys look younger but faster I've been a track head for 45 years, and Iv e never seen so many lead runners
Wtf espn, such crappy commentators. Too busy reading off their script to watch and report on the race. No split times or lap speeds.

i read as 42 year old breaks 10k ncaa record ahahah
😂
Who held the old record from 42 years ago
Gran carrera aunque quería que ganara Mantz
These mans are the worst commentators they must have been sprinters
A high jumper and a decathlete. Both are Olympic medalists but they don't know what to do with a distance event.
I thought they did a great job on the commentary
Damn rly wish Mantz would have had that. Mad respect to the champion tho
Adriaan Wildschutt is from South Africa... not Germany. Wtf not even close.
Heck of a runner though
These commentators man. Adrian from FSU is South African, not German
Love to see actual racing instead of a jog then sprint

They do 1 hour runs on the track
this comment is the worst ten seconds of my life.
they do seven day runs on the track too
An announcer somewhere loses their voice every time someone repeats the phrase "lots of run left in them" because they heard a Brit say it once
Mantz faded in the final straight? He held off a kicking Nur and Brandt, Dever just had one more gear.
So many studs , super race .
Adriaan Wildschutt is South African, Not German!
Respect to teams that develop home grown talent.
Connor Mantz was tough second place leading out! Go cougars
I love them cougar moms.
I love Mantz face at the end. Gives off “well. shit 🤷🏻♂️” energy
Красавчик, мужик!

Dever is a month older. Both are 24

Why does kiptoo keep sacrificing himself at the start of the races
As soon as Manz started breaking away I knew he moved too early.
Break lagat's M40 WR!
Thumbs up if you read this as "42 year old breaks 10K record"
The dude looks like he's 28.
Please stop giving away the results with the title pic. Maybe show a start line pic instead
What on Earth was Mantz doing letting him through on the inside lane? Lack of awareness cost him the title.
I don’t understand why US colleges develop foreign athletes.
Because coaches get paid if their teams win. So they go and find the best athletes. You really don’t understand that?
talent pool of local HS athletes are not that good in distance running. sprinting no doubt US no 1

Gotta be the shoes!!!
