2790290, Well, nobody asked for his autograph

Definitely had to get some starstruck kids to re-focus yesterday though. Probably didn't help that the meet is on their home track and every time he raced, the announcer loudly drew everybody's attention to his presence, name, and resume.

First time I've seen him race in person. Ran a 4x800m leg and cruised to a 200m prelim victory by nearly a second. It was really impressive. I hope he stays healthy and keeps progressing. I've seen dominant freshmen before who were basically adults physically but he still looks like a high school freshman. He's capable of some really special things if he continues making progress.
