The Most Insane HS Performance Ever? Lutkenhaus 1:42.27, Brazier Comeback Complete, Nuguse, Hoey Out, Sha'Carri Arrested - 2025 USATF Championships

The most shocking 800 in US history? 16-year-old Cooper Lutkenhaus ran 1:42.27, four seconds faster than any high schooler ever, and almost beat Donavan Brazier , who completed his unbelievable comeback with the win. We try and breakdown Lutkenhaus's run and hopefully give enough love to Brazier's brilliance. Plus Yared Nugude and Josh Hoey suffered the devastation of USAs while Jonah Koech emerged, Cole Hocker did some Cole Hocker things and Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested en route.
