These two men received more media attention as NFL players (what else is new), but as high school track athletes they achieved a unique accomplishment (hint:they were not on the same team). Who are they and what did they do?

Terry Bradshaw and Russ Francis were both High School record holders in the Javelin.

Not sure what you're looking for, but a couple of names hit me that did something unique in HS and finished their careers as pro football players.

Johnny Lam Jones
Milt Campbell


Both were high school superstars in track and made the Olympics while still in high school ('76 and '52, respectively). However Campbell didn't have much of pro football career, a cup of coffee in the NFL and then the CFL

dukehjsteve is right along the path.What titles did these future NFL stars achieve as high school track and field athletes? They're from the same state.

No idea what you're looking for but Lam Jones and Michael Carter were from the same state.

dukehjsteve is on the right track (two athletes, same event , acheived titles, same state, not on same team)
