<span style="font-size: 14px;">The first ever MileSplit All-American Teams for this past 2014 outdoor track & field season are being released this week. The selection process included taking into consideration multiple factors but not limited to: season best performances and national rankings, consistency and body of work, finishes in major championship and post-season meets as well as a head-to-head results against other top national ranked competition in their event were all used to determine the top 8 individuals and relays to make up our All-American squads.</span></p>
With all the nation's best milers at the adidas Dream Mile on June 14th, Grant Fisher of Grand Blanc High School in Michigan proved to be the best of them with a 4:02.02 victory in New York City. Only a junior, Fisher has already won two national titles in cross country (Foot Locker Nationals) and track (New Balance Nationals indoor mile) and made two USA teams for IAAF championship meets (World Youths last summer and World Juniors this summer). Fisher competes this week in Eugene in the 1500 at the World Junior Championships as a finalist hopeful.
The following 8 individuals have been selected to the MileSplit All-American Team in the boys 1600 meter/mile run from the 2014 outdoor season. They have been chosen by MileSplit as the 8 best national performers in their event from this past spring.
