Duncanville 39.98 Top Five ALL-TIME 4x1 At Texas State Meet!

[@thomasmiller28]

Could’ve gave 39.78 a scare if the anchor hadn’t gone so early. Still amazing time though Edit: 39.76*

[@spinninforbax4156]

Tbh they wasn't going 39.7 anything. But they could of went faster than 39.98

[@cabralwilliams9812]

Obviously there is no way to know for sure, but I agree that they could have given 39.78 a scare. At the paces they were going, 0.2 seconds is around 2 meters - about 6.5 feet. It certainly seems realistic to me that they lost 6.5 feet or more with the anchor taking off too early.

[@spinninforbax4156]

@@cabralwilliams9812 no they wasn't. 2018 39.80 was a actual scare. 39.98 is not. Qith a better handoff ot would of been 39.90. Or 39.89

[@cabralwilliams9812]

@@spinninforbax4156 First of all, whether a time constitutes a 'scare' of the 39.78 is completely subjective. One viewer is free to consider this 39.98 performance a scare of 39.78. There is no textbook definition of what it means to scare 39.78. Secondly, neither I nor the original poster claimed that this performance was a scare of 39.78. What the original poster said, and what I agreed with, was that had the anchor not gone early, the team could have given the 39.78 time a scare. Could they have gotten within 0.1 of the record? Maybe. Could they have gotten within 0.01 of the record? Maybe. Could they have beaten the record? Maybe. We will never know because the anchor took off too early. That's why I said 'Obviously there is no way to know for sure, but I agree that the could have given 39.78 a scare.' There is no certainty implied in anything that I said.

[@dominantdaddy6939]

That is a competitor. Anchor knew he F’d up. Win is a win is a win, but when you know you likely cost your team tenths of a second it can get to you. We all mistakes. He’ll remember this. Excellent race overall.

[@tjmckenzie4048]

Thank you!!! I was going to say the exact same thing. For a guy who left way too early, he did kind of keep his composure and never gave up. So many kids panic and end up giving up on the whole race. Amazing time for a pretty bad 3rd exchange.

I must say it was a great race as always the crowd wait on 6A to run relays, but if you look at the video Duncanville anchor leg got out to soon, but the coaches choose not to contest the race.

[@tjmckenzie4048]

He did go out too soon, but he definitely got the baton before the end of the zone. No reason to contest the race.
