It was the fastest by an American high school sprinter in 2009, and tied Quincy Watts and Riley Washington for the third fastest ever by a California high schooler, behind only Henry Thomas and Ricky Carrigan. [2] In June 2009, he won the CIF state track titles in the 100 (10.38) and 200 (21.08) for the second consecutive year, becoming the first athlete to do so since Charlie Paddock in 1917 and 1918.
