Athletic Excellence

The 5-foot-8, 125-pound senior set state records in the 1,600-meter run and the mile during the abbreviated spring season.

He also clocked a personal-best 8:50.65 in the 3,200-meter run at Snow Canyon, which ranked as the nation’s No. 1 mark among prep indoor competitors this spring. A two-time Foot Locker All-American in cross country, he crossed the line third this spring at the Quarantine Clasico in the mile with a time of 4:04.50.
