Congrats to Charlie Sullivan '29, the Nike Outdoor Nationals Champion in the Freshman 1 Mile in Eugene, OR!
Charlie came through the line in 4:19.96, finishing 1st out of 64 freshmen. Charlie is just the second Hawklet ever to break 4:20 in the 1 Mile as a freshman. Rock State!
Freshman Charlie Sullivan claims the victory in the silver race of the KC Metro Mile running a very impressive 4:20.59 full mile. And he had lots of teammates to cheer him on! This is a top 15 time for a freshman in the nation currently.
Congratulations to Jack McGovern for his 3rd place finish in the Hoka Festival of Miles Missouri Mile with a new personal best of 4:08.62.
