wow this kid is for real:
4. Will Illinois freshman Lukas Verzbicas run the fastest 5k and two mile at NIN?
Lukas Verzbicas (Fr., Lincoln-Way Central, IL), the freshman phenom from Illinois, has already earned national freshmen records in the mile (4:15.43) and 3,000m (8:29.16). The question now is will Verzbicas not only earn new frosh records in the two mile (current record: 9:16.65) and 5k (current record: 15:51.71), but can he win both races?
Verzbicas is the heavy favorite in the boys 5k at NIN, while the two mile is a lot more challenging with such notable athletes as Andrew Springer (Sr., Westerly, RI), Thomas Porter (Sr., Mountain View, VA) and Bobby Nicolls (Sr., Regis, CO) in the field. Verzbicas is an obvious talent, and he'll receive his first big test of his high school track career this weekend.

hope he keeps dabbling in running!
