Malachi Toney was that little speedy receiver for the Miami Hurricanes last season, he was 17 years old.

Betty Robinson a 16 year old winning the 1928 Olympics 100m and Houston McTear running 9.0 as just a junior my biggest....WOW....as far as HSer pre 2000 goes.

Toss in Olympians Johnny Jones and Dwayne Evans,

People in general looked older in their teens back in the 1920s (and 1930s - 1950s) than people in their teens these days. That, and the kid is dressed for a Peaky Blinders episode.

Ah, how do you know that just curious.

More on Hussey

Frank Hussey, a schoolboy sensation from New York City's Stuyvesant High School,[4] ran the third leg in the American 4 × 100 m relay team in Paris Olympics, which won the gold medal in a new world record of 41.0.[2]

After returning from Paris, he attended Boston College and then Columbia University, and as a freshman became the leading Collegiate runner in America. He won the AAU championships in 100 yd (91 m) in 1925.[1][2]

Carter Suggs was the nations top HS sprinter, out of North Carolina, he tied the HS 9.3 record something like six times, then off to East Carolina,......poof.

Who is familiar with HS 100m record holders, Derrick Florence, J-Mee Samuels and Trendarvis Friday?
