Frezer Legesse, a student who ran for U.S. Grant Highschool, a school that is nationally recognized as being the #1 poorest, trashiest, lowest test scoring school in the United States, recently ran a 3:58 indoor mile at Arkansas.
Afet being at ou for less than 2 years, Frezer has become the faster miler in Oklahoma history. Not only is he the faster miler in Oklahoma history, this young man is also the only sub 4 miler other than Mark Thompson that is a product of an Oklahoma highschool. Even the great Kevin Schwab, who holds 9 gold medals in highschool track and cross country and is a product of a rich family, rich school, and rich training facilities, has not been able to come within 6 seconds of Frezer's mark.
All things considered, with emphasis on being a product of the poorest highschool in America with a 30% graduation rate and 98% below federal poverty level, this young man has made SouthWest Oklahoma City proud.
Congratulations Frezer.
Go Generals. Red and Grey all the way.
