All-Time 400m Programs
We've been working to expand our vast results database this summer adding in several state championship meets dating back to 1995, and the plan is to continue throughout the summer. While we don't have every team's top athletes of all-time we wanted to take a look at the data we had to see what programs (schools) had the top performers in every track and field event outdoors.
We scored each team just like a cross-country meet, giving 1 point for the fastest time, and so on. A program's score is based on the top five performers in the event with the top 7 athletes acting as displacers.
Today we are going to take a look at the boy's 400m. Below are the top five programs based on the results we currently have in the database. For the complete list of 95 teams visit the link below.
Cheverus is the top-ranked 400m program of all-time with three athletes under fifty seconds. Jake Dixon who is number two all-time leads the way with his 48.45 effort. Behind him, 2020 graduate Sean Tompkins ranks second while Jimmy Campbell 49.93 is third-ranked for the Stags. Cheverus averaged 50.04 for their scoring five.
The Dragons of Brunswick are the second-ranked program with Alex Nichols's 48.58 personal best. Keenan Welzel also broke fifty seconds with his 49.86 effort. The Dragons averaged 50.22 for their scoring five.
