Heading into the 2025 outdoor season, only four high school boys had ever run under 10 seconds in the 100m, and up to this point, there have already been three to accomplish the feat this season.
Duncanville's (Texas) Brayden Williams and Langston Hughes' (Ga.) Maurice Gleaton have both run a wind-aided 9.82, making them the two fastest high schoolers of all-time in all conditions.
However, it's Harlan's (Texas) Tate Taylor and Gleaton who have run sub-10 with legal wind, with Taylor running 9.92 at the UIL State Championships, and Gleaton running 9.98 at the GHSA Region 3 meet.
Along with the fast times we've seen this spring, we've also seen a number of big improvers, headlined by Zytel Boyd, the senior out of Culver City (Calif.), who lowered his PB from 14.98 as a junior, to 10.85 as a senior.
Here are the most improved boys in the 100m this season compared to 2024.
