Wayne Davis 7.05 55mH HSR

[Marlow]

The senior from Southeast HS in Raleigh NC just ran it at the state meet. It breaks his HSR from last year run en route to his =HSR 60mH mark of 7.62.

While realizing that HS phenoms do not always transition well to the 42-inchers, this kid is consistent and appears to be the real deal.

I am in total agreement that the kid seems to be the real deal...he should do well at A&M under the tutelage of Pat Henry and Vince Anderson.

Great kid. Ran in an "Open" 60 HH (42") at UNC the day before the State Meet. Came in 2nd. 7.92

I was there and very surprised to see him running at that meet with the state meet the next day.

And how good is 7.92? The current NCAA Div. I qualifiers list goes to 7.91, 27 deep.... so if he were a collegian, he's already close to the top two dozen in the country. Methinks he'll be adapting to the taller sticks just fine!
