#8 on the list put out by milesplit list of up and coming freshman, Ryan Duffy, just won 4 national titles at the USATF Youth outdoor national meet (800, 1500, 3000 and the high jump). He won 8 national titles in 8th grade for his age group (USATF: 5k road, 800, 1500, 3000 and high jump and 3 for AAU (4k xc, 1500 and 3000 indoor). In cross country he went undefeated at local, state (USATF state champion), regional (Champs NE Champion), and national level (AAU National Championship) in 8th grade/age 13.
Jackson Miller should definitely be on that list! Ryan edged him out at AAU national xc meet but if the race were bit longer probably would have gone to Jackson. Miller's 1500/1600 times and closing splits are great. Nathan Viands and Jack Tindall are going into 8th grade this year and are two to look out for in the NE for next year. Both have unbelievable talent....
