......to have been there in 1954 when Alameda's James Jackson squared off against Delano's Leamon King for the California 100 yard title....wow!

Was there ever a bigger high school 100 shoot out?

Jackson beat King in both sprints....

9.6-9.7
21.2-21.3

Jackson would go on to run for the U of Oklahoma where he simply faded away into obshurity.

King would go on to run for Cal where he tied the WR in the 100 yards 9.3 and meters 10.1.In 1956 he won run on the gold medal 4x1 team at the Melbourne Oly.
