The 98th Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays delivered exactly what you’d expect from one of the country’s most storied invitational meets: fast times, out-of-state visitors testing themselves against Texas talent, and a few performances that will carry weight well into the championship season as district meets begin this week. Here’s a look at the high school distance action across all six events.

Boys 1600m

Holliday’s Noah Strohman added another chapter to what is already a historically decorated prep career, crossing in 4:10.22 to claim the win in extremely windy conditions. A four-time UIL 3A cross country state champion and three-time state champion in both the 1600m and 3200m on the track, Strohman signed with Oklahoma State University in February and is hunting a fourth state track title this spring. The race at Texas Relays was tight at the top: Austin Anderson’s Colby Huntress ran 4:10.69 for second, and IMG Academy’s Matthew Dodds — one of several out-of-state entrants — took third in 4:10.91. The entire podium was separated by less than a second, and the field as a whole showed impressive depth, with seven athletes finishing under 4:15.

The Texas A&M Bluebonnet Invitational is shaping up to be one of the more compelling early-season distance meets on the Texas calendar. With some serious talent entered across the 800, 1600, and 3200 meters, there’s plenty to watch — and at this point in the season, even the seed times undersell what some of these athletes are capable of. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect in each event.
