I haven't seen anything on the web today as I just got in from a HS football game.
If someone would have told me Ritz either would run or ran 12:56 I wouldn't have believed him.
What an unbelievable run and improvement for him. He also didn't get dragged on in the back of the pack. He beat some guys.

If you missed the live coverage on Universal sports, here's the link to their video archive...the entire meet! Go to the 2 hour mark to watch Isi's WR vault. The 5K starts around 2:04 or so. Well worth a lokk, at least watch the last 5 laps or so. Ritz really RACED those last few, even moving into second with about 500-600m to go. Eyeballing it with 3 1/2 laps to go, he was 8 sec behind KB, so closed 4 sec faster than him over the last 1400.
Gosh darn, I was so excited I forgot to include the link!:
