    196. NJ MOCs and Nationals Wrap-up with Jim Lambert, Corey Annan & Bakari Tice

    196. NJ MOCs and Nationals Wrap-up with Jim Lambert, Corey Annan & Bakari Tice

    June 28, 2026
    2h 13m
    On this episode, we’re joined by Jim Lambert of NJ MileSplit and Corey Annan and Bakari Tice of NJ.com for a deep dive into the current state of high school and college track and field.

    We start with the new NCAA age rule. What are their first impressions? Will it actually fix anything? And what other changes would they like to see?

    Then we break down the NJ Meet of Champions: the biggest surprises, the standout performances, and the underclassmen everyone should be watching next season.

    Finally, we talk about the explosion of national meets. How did New Jersey athletes perform across all the big ones? What are the overall impressions? And is this model of having hundreds of “Nationals” sustainable long term?

    If you’re into New Jersey track and field, high school athletics, or the future of the sport, this episode is packed with expert insight.

    Like, subscribe, and drop a comment with your thoughts on the new NCAA rule!
