The South Carolina Road Race Rankings as of April 4, 2020 were announced today. ASICS Greenville Track Club-ELITE athletes Eduardo (Eddie) Garcia and Andrea (Annie) Rodenfels remained atop of their respective men's and women's rankings. Photos above show both athletes in their most recent competitions. Annie won the Main Street Mile in conjunction with Columbia, SC's Governor's Cup running festival. Eddie won the Governor's Cup Half Marathon and set a new SC state record of 1:05:27. Their teammates, Cristina McKnight (3rd) and Joe Niemiec (7th) were also among the rankings. Both of those athletes competed in February's USA Olympic Team Trials Marathon in Atlanta (which does not effect the state's rankings).

The program produced four qualifiers for the 2016 USA Olympic Trials Marathon in Los Angeles, one qualifier/participant for the 2019 Pam American Games Marathon in. Lima, Peru and three qualifiers/two participants for the 2020 USA Olympic Trials Marathon in Atlanta, GA.
