golfaddict1 Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 Boling finishes 3rd in the long jump. Arian Smith also competed in the long jump and finished 5th. Lakeland picked up quite an athlete for senior year. Clutch jump on 6th try for the win with a tailwind to boot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boling said his competitors never mention the fact he is white, that his race means nothing on the track. It’s Instagram commenters and reporters who keep bringing up his skin color. “I don’t really pay attention to it, because I’m busy running,” Boling said. “It’s whatever.” Ato Boldon, a four-time Olympic medalist sprinter and an NBC Sports analyst, called Boling “one of the best high school athletes that we’ve seen ever.” He ticked off Boling’s exploits: a 10.13-second wind-legal 100 meters; a 20.55-second 200 meters; a sub-45 second 400-meter relay split; a long jump of 26 feet 3 1/2 inches; a 9.6-second split in the 4×100 relay. And as you and I keep saying the Clock doesn't lie. Track and Field is not Subjective it is a Timed Fact. “The good thing about track and field, it’s not a subjective matter,” Boldon said. “We can look at his results and his measurements and go, oh, it’s not that this guy is getting a lot of attention because of his skin color or because he moved on to the 100. He’s getting the attention because he’s literally doing things we haven’t seen before.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about going pro. I look for him to give up on the jumps. I think it puts too much pressure on the knees and that adds up imo. His 400M training has made him a monster finisher in the 100. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfaddict1 Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 The PanAm games will be Boling’s last official hs meet. We recall Lyles and Norman US Olympic trials right after HS in 2016. Lyles broke the 200 hs prep record in this race. Had Merritt not decided to try the double 200/400, Lyles would have made the Olympic team in the 200. Imo, unless Boling PR’s something wicked In this meet, he’ll do a season at UGA. Lyles went pro, but Norman went to USC for a season after running a 20.14 200 and he was training with some very talented teammates, including Rai Benjamin Have an enjoyable year in college even with a PanAm pr and gauge the results after the NCAA’s. If Sydney McLaughlin can do a year, Boling can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watched his interview- He took all 6 long jumps and with very little rest had to run the 100m - He said that was difficult on him. The most jumps he had taken all year was 2 or 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to use measurable, objective standards. Rest assured there aren't "tons" of football players running faster than 10.3. For those that have done so, citation will be needed. And we would be interested to know why they weren't at the U20 Outdoor championships. U20 results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badrouter Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 We shall see. I'm sure Smith hopes to improve his time next track season as well. WR Smith, 10.3 100m and RB Bowman 10.41 100m. One of the fastest duos to play on the same side of the ball for the same team anywhere ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
