Kyle Merber Olympic Trials!

As far as the TV schedule, it is ambiguous about what will and will not be
shown, it says Live coverage, but it will more likely be a delayed,
shortened recap of the day’s events. It is likely they will only show the
semi-finals and finals but here it is:

It is on NBC Sports Network, which for Long Island on Cablevision is
channel 146.
Probably best to just set your DVR and I’ll tell you if its worth
watching/covered.

Thurs. June 28: 9-11 pm
Fri. June 29: 6-8 pm
Sun. July 1: 7-8 pm

*Thursday, June 28:* Qualifying Round: Men’s 1500m at 4:20 pm
Top 3 in each heat, and then the next two best times from all the heats
combined will advance.

*Friday, June 29:* Semi-Finals: Men’s 1500m at 4:25 pm
Top 3 in each heat, and then the next two best times from all the heats
combined will advance.

*Sunday, July 1:* Finals: Men’s 1500m at 4:37 pm
Top 3 with the “A” standard go to the Olympics. He has not run the A
standard yet and would have to do it there. Without that preset time, the
runner won’t go to London even if he comes in first place. (The “A”
standard is 3:35.50, he so far has only run a 3:35.59)
