    Back in my college days (78 & 79) I ran a 4:16 (which is my PB indoors or out) at the armory when it was a flat board track that you were afraid of getting splinters if you slipped and fell (which was a real possibility if you were a sprinter.
    Anyway Lex runs sub 8 and Aaron runs 8:01 and Colin runs sub 4 and your NPHS websites makes no mention .

      Yeah i've heard story's of the splinters. Sounds brutal. And yeah the school has never been the most supportive, but its alright we get a good but of recognition from the community.
