In reply to: A high school kid in WV ran a 10.50 posted by needamirer
All my buddies growing up were St. Thomas guys and therefore hated Strake, but I'm happy for the guy.
9.98 is crazy fast.
Not just White Lightning. I'd guess a few of the kids in the video could be state champs somewhere else.
at least sprinting state - in America. Just about every kid in that final race is high D-1 caliber.
ahead the winner pulls during the course of 10 seconds, especially given the caliber of the rest of the guys on the track.
His HS performances in the HJ, LJ, 400 and 100 meter are already in the 1000 pt + neighborhood.
He signed with UGA which has a good decathlon program.
He closed a 2 second gap in the last leg and I believe ran the fastest leg in the country by like a full second
