Coach Jerry Alexander liked what he saw, at least in terms of how Sam raced.
"Sam led right form the gun, and Webb was happy to sit back and let Sam do the work. When Webb made his move with 4 laps to go, it was decisive, and Sam could not answer. But Sam ran an excellent last mile, and finished in 1:39 for the final 600. If Sam had some help with the pacing, he certainly could have run a PR. As it was, he ran an excellent race that will leave him confident and ready to roll at Penn."

Dude! Jokingly on our cool down on Tuesday I asked if Webb would show up hahaha
Sam gets a nice mention in the LetsRun recap: http://www.letsrun.com/2012/webb-andrews-0414.php
Good work Sam! You'll be ready to crush it at Penn.
"Thanks to Sam, Alan had someone to follow" - J. Webb. Great work Sam, that's really awesome!
Sam = my idol
For a guy with a 13:10 pr, he sure ran like a coward.
Nice job Sam-way to run tough. I loved seeing you go straight to the lead. All guts. There needs to be more of that in championship racing.
