Median: the middle signee’s personal best. Range: the full spread of the class, fastest to slowest. 1500m/Mile and 3000m marks read as their 1600m/3200m equivalents. Sourced from verified meets, not self-reported times.

Every verified mark in Oklahoma's 2025-26 class
9 of the 11 athletes signed have a verified high-school mark, shown here with the mark each was signed on. The other 2 have no verified mark on record, so they are left out rather than guessed. Not a published standard, not an estimate. Names, hometowns and the coach who recruited each athlete are the member view.

Where do YOUR marks fit?
BeastMatch runs your marks against the real signing history of 980+ programs, Oklahoma included — free, no account, results in seconds.
These numbers move every recruiting cycle — they’re last class’s signing marks, not a fixed bar. Programs also weigh progression, event needs, academics and open roster spots, so a mark in range starts a conversation; it doesn’t guarantee one.
Oklahoma permits high school NIL for high school athletes. See the Oklahoma NIL rules →
