Jenna Hutchins recruitment by Coach Taylor is phenomenal. Jenna destroyed the

field in the 5k and broke national record. Race wasn't even close. Big things will continue with girls cross country team with Coach Taylor. This is like recruiting and winning the best football recruit in the country. Ok, maybe not exactly the same. But certainly a coup for BYU in future recruits.

She broke Tuohy’s record? Whoa. Most people don’t understand how big that is.

A non-LDS 5 star athlete from across the country. Major signing coup.

Jenna is arguably the best-ever high school long distance runner. And she’s only a Junior.

What about Mary, the girl Nike destroyed and she opted out of high school

Jenna has faster times in the 5k in cross-country and the 5k and 3200 meter on the track.

Mary Cain. She is starting to remind me of Mary Decker-Slaney.

Do they rate XC and TF athletes according to stars? Thought that was only

She’s the equivalent of a top 5 National 5 star recruit in Football/Basketball.

Didn't they also just pick up a quality recruit from California as well

Probably Riley Chamberlain who also has a younger sister who is doing well- link

She is considered the number two recruit in the class of 2022 behind Jenna Hutchins.

Crazy. She broke away from the whole pack in the first minute. What's weird is .

Her right foot looks like it is externally rotated. It kicks out. Cant tell on

yeah, that's what I'm seeing.

Some runners have a weird stride, but the self-selected stride is usually the

Not a beautiful stride, but not a lot of wasted motion either.

HenderCoug

This. I think she actually has an extremely efficient stride.

Her stride is interesting. Her turnover and VO2 are incredible. That race was

It’s like her right leg is a little short or something. Go girl

4/16/21 1:21pm

Thanks for posting. I didn't realize she was a BYU commit. Phenomenal athlete. To runnincoug's comment,

At the end of the day she is overwhelmingly more tough than her competition.

Wingnut

4/16/21 9:21am

I think that's it, and impressive. She's not efficient in her running but

runnincoug

Incredible. Brought tears to the eyes.

Archaea

Witnessing greatness always does that to me.

HiLife

4/16/21 9:31am

That's awesome, though I wish the video showed her crossing the finish line.

Cosmodiar

4/16/21 9:34am

Well the lead cart often peels away before the finish line, though I agree.

Archaea

4/16/21 12:52pm

For a runner, BYUs location offers a great training location at elevation. Then add elite coach and great academics.

4/16/21 9:39am

I remember reading a story that coach Taylor has already turned down both

Wow. Great article. She’s getting a pipeline full of fast girls - hopefully that helps her stick around.

Jenna's dominance reminiscent American Fork HS's national record 4x1600. (link)

agreed.. someone was talking about this in regards to El Jefe and the mods

byukarl

4/16/21 1:23pm

NHL doesn’t have a category either. Jefe giveth and he taketh away.

(Private)

4/16/21 2:41pm

That imagery of Jenna in front of the massive pack at around 3:00 of the video is pretty awesome.

4/16/21 2:47pm

El Jefe, give XC/T&F its own category and I'll become a paying member. Others?

Jasbo

4/16/21 3:23pm

Who else will join me if a category is established?

Jasbo

4/16/21 3:24pm

Why do we need a category? There's too many already, and we hardly talk about XC

runnincoug

4/16/21 3:34pm

So what problem is another category? It's T&F, too. Ignore the category if you

Not a big problem, just a pain to go through all the little icons & pick

runnincoug

4/16/21 9:24pm

A new category should be created simply in honor of Jenna’s commitment!

CougGolf

Aren't categories made to be ignored? Everything else you'll see.
