a lot of times dual meets are not posted on the big websites because they want meets with more than 2 teams. which sucks for ranking because a lot of people go unnoticed if they never compete in any big invitationals/states/etc

Oh yeah, I have been researching this. PA does not accept marks from dual meets. T&F News does, I think they just never heard of this mark until it was pointed out. It sounds like everything is legit about it, and I am trying to get them to accept it.

Yeah he's had like 4 other meets at 16'3+, 16-10 certainly sounds legit.
