They had three receivers over 6'2 and all ran sub 4.5, they also had a kid about 5'6" in the slot that ran a legit 4.3. We couldn't do anything to slow them down. Ran by us, through us, and around us. We helped them prove the saying Speed Kills that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aucanucktiger 1,794 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 According to the FL H.S. Athletic Assoc website, in Florida in 2023 that 10.25 would get you 3d place among boys 100m times but the 10.66 that's 8th in TX would tie you for 43d in FL. Fwiw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was forever ago in the 80s but while at Ft Hood I went to a Killeen vs Ellison Game. I can’t remember which team it was but one of them ran a 4 wide and those 4 were the reigning state champs for the 400 m relay. It was fun to watch to say the least. It was also cool to cheer for the ‘Kangaroos’. 😅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerHorn 1,353 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 My son ran in the low 11's in 8th grade, made the finals heat where all 8 (IIRC) kids finished within a step or two of each other and finished 5th in the district (metro Austin area). Pulled a groin later that day, took up piano while recovering (where he turned out to be something of a prodigy) and never played an organized sport again. Kids. 🤔 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbomb 193 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) I was curious so I looked into what the Georgia times were. As a whole those Texas times were better but a couple of times stood out in Georgia in 7A 1st and second were 10.22 and 10.24. They appear to be wind aided at 1.9. The single most impressive run was in the prelims in 6A where a 10th grader from Langston Hughes ran a 10.14. Wind aided at .5. He came in second in the finals he posted a 10.37 behind a 10.35 winner. https://ga.milesplit.com/articles/333502/state-meet-hub-2023-ghsa-state-track-field-championships Edited May 15, 2023 by Newbomb 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
