With the completion of the recent NCAA Indoor National Championships at the Randal Tyson Track Center in Fayetteville, Arkansas this weekend, we compiled a comparative list featuring athletes who competed at the NCAA Championships in each event and then referenced what they accomplished in that event (or similar ones, i.e. 1,600m vs. Mile) in high school.

Our consensus? 

Some serious improvements have been made at the highest of levels. 

Visit the links below to view the data and learn more about each athlete. If you're interested in more NCAA Indoor Championships coverage, you can visit our meet page and check out our list of recaps, features and more.


NoteWe also tried to track down international athlete's prep performances to try to fill the gaps the best we could.
