#11 2 Sub 15's KYtrackXC.com 5K Showdown
KYtrackXC.com and Christian Academy of Louisville hooked up to put on the fastest high school race in Kentucky high school 5K history. Holy Cross Junior Jacob Thomson led the pace crossing the line in a then NATIONAL LEADING TIME of 14:49 to win. Butler's Patrick Gregory came across for a 14:57 which stood as the fastest time for the sophomore class in the NATION. The top two alone make it the fastest 5K in Kentucky history surpassing the Trinity Invitational in 1980 (Joe Buechler 14:52, Jim Murphy 14:58, Jim Spienza 14:59.) Seven runners in total ran under 15:51 last March.
