C/INF/OF Analysis July 1^st Event
I was very impressed with the talent level all across the board at this event. We only had 19 kids but saw 4 sub 7 runners in the 60, which plenty college coaches commented on how impressed they were with the athleticism of these guys. We saw some big power guys, and some really fast ATH's, all in all it was a great event. Next Up: July 15th, at North Collins
