Virginia Meet of Champions Coverage

The boys 55 meter hurdles at the first annual Virginia Meet of Champions lived up to the hype with 5 state champion hurdlers featured in the event including 3 US top 5 ranked athletes between US #1 ranked Grant Holloway of Grassfield, US #3 Lee Warren of Lee-Davis, and US #4 Charles Graham of Phoebus. All three nationally ranked hurdlers were even over the last set or hurdles and virtually a dead heat as they came across the line. It took several minutes for the timing crew to give the Virginia 5A state champion Warren the nod for first place in a 7.33 clocking over the Virginia 6A state champion Holloway (2nd, 7.33) and Virginia 4A state champion Graham (3rd, 7.34).
