As an American, it was embarrassing that we couldn't get the Hydel athlete's name correct on that record breaking 4X4 400m. Congrats to Hydel.

[@keishahaye1055]

Dont blame them too much. Sometimes the paper is wrong.

[@kadeembarrett686]

These commentators don't know the athletes so when the schools change the orders they won't know who is where. The Hydel running order was Alliah Baker to Oneika McAnnoff to Kerrica Hill to Brianna Lyston. Congrats Hydel on winning and breaking the Championship of America record

McAnuff is never mentioned when we talk about potential for the future but she is a force to be reckoned with. Level-headed, smooth - a silent assassin.

Please please we need to big up that coach Corey Bennett from Hydel. He has a philosophy that all the sprinters have to be able to run 100,200,400m and the reverse for the 400m athletes. He is creating some speed and endurance machines underneath the radar.

It’s really annoying when the commentators don’t know the athletes. It was Oneika McAnuff on the 2nd leg for Hydel, Kerrica Hill on the 3rd and Brianna Lyston on the 4th. It’s not hard to know who these girls are. They are World Champions. This is a prime example of Americans only knowing their own athletes. The Penn relays is an international track meet, where Jamaican schools are prominent. These athletes hold the most wins and the most records, it's time we learn who they are.

[@beistrong8635]

Please remember relay you can switch all 4 runners now and with the thousands of runners at the meet you affi see wit dem. We done know who was running where and the interviewer corrected it. Maybe dem can wait till di runners can stand up b4 di interview😅

[@bacl4487]

@@beistrong8635 Of course I remember. I know it can be hard but come on that was a big mix up. This is a championship of America race. These girls aren't new here. I wouldn't be so annoyed if it wasn't a consistent pattern across so many Penn Relays. But also, it's their job and this was one of the biggest races of the entire meet. Regardless of it was a Jamaican or American school they should have known who was running, and yes people can make mistakes or not realize there was a switch up, but at least one of them should have known enough to correct that whilst they are still running, this was a 4x4. The race organizers need to do better briefings especially for these big races. I know they only said Oneika's name wrong because it was spelt wrong on the the sheet. You can see the wrong spelling on the results website. Again, all of this can be avoided if they get commentators who at least know the big athletes.

[@seanwilson5516]

You think a Jamaican commentator would know all the athletes from American schools? Your delusion has to be innate.
