#5 2009 Performance

MALE BREAKS THE 4x100m RELAY STATE RECORD 41.66

Picture this, team loses one of the top athletes in the state regardless of sport (who won the 100,200, and 400 in 2008) and still puts together a 4x100m Relay Team that breaks the overall Kentucky State Record by .40 of a second.  This is exactly what happened to Male as the foursome of Chisom Omenyinma, Robbie Graham, John Giddens, and Velvin Smith combined together to run a 41.66 at the Kentucky State Track Meet.  They broke the previous record of 42.06 set by Lafayette which had stood since 1985.  The scariest thought is that none of them were seniors!!!
