Nice job Fargo Forum. Did they even know he was competing? ...:facepalm:
Yeah, I just saw that too!
That's the "A" standard and he's going to Moscow. They also showed him celebrating with an NDSU coach.
Its on the Forums website.
Awesome job Riley... nice pics of Riley and Coach Justin St,Clair on facebook.
Congratulations Riley !
Forum said his phone has been ringing off the hook since his win.
He passed on his last two attempts ... I wonder why? In any case, a GREAT win. great for Riley, great for NDSU, great for Stanley, ND, great for the entire state.
PR by 30+ feet! That's crazy! Great job Riley!
Congratulations Riley ! His throw would have gotten him 4th place in the last Olympics!!
Quite feasible. Had not thought of that reason.
Nice to see that we aren't the only ones impressed ... some awfully good press out there on Riley. I have believed for a long time that NDSU is good overall at getting its athletes to perform beyond what they may have thought possible, thereby getting the most out of its people (in general). Certainly a big success story here. Impressive.
(added this after posting the above.) Listened to the interview with Riley, coaches Justin and Larson on gobison.com. He explained why he passed.
Thought his presser deserved to go in this thread.
