Coverage

Highlights

  • Andres Arroyo won three state titles in the span of 2 hours, starting with his win in the 1600m (4:15.50), leading the entire way and finishing more than four seconds ahead of the field. Just seven races later, Arroyo lined up for his shot at the 800m. Boyd Anderson sophomore Javon Patterson led the field after the first lap but Arroyo closed on the turn, passed him on the back stretch, extended his strides and finished home for his second title in 1:54.09. Arroyo then walked off the track, got a drink, let the 200m races go and then after one heat of the girls 3200m was back on the track again for his longest and likely most challenging race of the day. After a few laps in the back, Arroyo separated and with just over a lap to go had established all the lead he would need to make history. With about 420 meters to go, Arroyo looked to his left and right, saw no challenges and finished in 9:30.75 to win by more than four seconds.
  • Boyd Anderson senior Kali Davis-White capped her high school track career by dominating the girls sprints. She was pushed by Sparling in the 100m but ran a 200m that cemented her in the record books. In the 200m final, Davis-White put an exclamation point on the meet, her event and her prep career by shattering a 12 year old record set by Ericka Whipple in 2001. Whipple's previous state record of 23.36 and the national mark of 23.39 were set down in deplorable conditions by Davis-White who finished it in 23.05.
