I understand the course is slightly easier than in prior years, but 14:10 at Mt. SAC is ridiculous. Kid is a jr from Flagstaff. Anyone know anything about his background/training?

30 seconds off the previous course record. Didn't they get rid of one of the hills? Seems like that would make a big difference.

The new courses is longer as its now 3 miles so it probably is slower time wise than the previous mt sac course. 14:10 is right up there with the 14:17 performance at Woodward park.

He was a close 2nd place to Oliver Horton at Desert Twilight. The SW has the fastest kids in the nation once again.

I figured it was probably somewhere in that league. He buried the field, won his race by 40 seconds. Insane performance.

This guy's track times don't align with his xc times. What's up.

He is a distance baller to say the least. 2:02, 4:23, and 9:14 show he is fairly distance oriented. Especially since that was after taking 11th at FLN.

Like a state with over 7 million people having a fast HS distance runner? He's been good at running his whole life.

He’s trying to break 14 at NXR.
I also heard in Jackson Spencer’s interview that he’s trying to go sub-14 there too
