An achievement worthy of note out west. Parker Bluth won the 100 (10.34), the 200 (20.52), and the 4 x 400 (along with the Lambourne brothers and Tanner Hunt) all in one exhausting day at the Mountain West Championships. I could see Utah State making the relay finals at the NCAA's if runners like Bluth are a little fresher.
there were an abundance of White sprinters at the MWC Championships.
Parker Bluth's personal-record of 10.34 took home the gold in the 100-meters. it leaves me wondering (again) why Dallas Burroughs, the phenomenal sprinter for Boise State (with a personal-best 10.34 in high school, as well as a 21.06 in the 200) never ran track in college.
also in the 100, just barely edged out for medals were two youngsters from Boise State.
Dusty Fisher and
Alexandru Terpezan, with Fisher running a 10.65 and Terpezan a 10.67
in the 200-meters, White cats went 1-2-3-5-6, with notable efforts by Bluth (mentioned above with a school-record 20.52, which is a world-class time), Terpezan (who had a personal-best 20.97 to take second place), and Fisher, a 6-foot-2 walk-on wideout on the football team (who took third place with a 21.28). they are both sophomores, i think.
in the 400, White athletes went 1-2-3-4, led by Lambourne (46.31) and Hunt (47.41) of Utah State and freshman
Kyle Kelley of Boise State (47.45) taking third.
this makes me ponder where the "explosive affletes" on Boise State's football team are, since clearly only the fastest "overachievers" on campus are winning championship medals for the track team.
