Inside This Issue

The Big Story

The winning margin… just 0.002.

A week after saying in the Michtrack Interview that he thought he could break 13-seconds in the 110 hurdles, a feat no high schooler had ever accomplished in wind-legal conditions, Catholic Central's Zacchaeus Brocks set a new U.S. High School Record of 13.00 in the heats at the USATF U20 Championships. The old record was 13.08 from Wayne Davis in 2009.

Then in the finals 50 minutes later, Brocks edged Le'Ezra Brown of Georgia by 0.002, winning in 12.98, another High School Record. He qualified to run in this summer's World U20 Championships in Eugene, August 5-9. Watch the race.

Note that USATF wrote a preview of the U20 Championships which talks about the 110 hurdles as one of the events to watch, and mentions the names of 5 contenders. They neglected to mention Brocks!

Michigan At New Balance Nationals

Note: the official results do not show which states or schools athletes are from. To spot them I need to recognize a name or club. Some, especially younger unattached athletes, will be missed. It’s also easy to miss athletes running under a clever club name they made up last week. Please let me know asap of any omissions!
