I always like an underdog. Thought this would be something uplifting for ya'll.
Also, I think the announcer is awesome! She should try announcing for baseball, or golf lol. I couldn't embed the video. Can someone do that?

I used to have great burst at the end. Coach said I wasn't doing it right. But I was always first, coming from behind down the stretch.

Maur Hill. Screw Atchison High.

She should try watching an Alex Smith bubble screen for a real challenge.

They're pale in comparison to most track & field athletes.

They're Irish. They're pale in comparison to most albinos.

Class of 84. I held the Atchison County 100yd dash record back then. Beat an Atchison High guy to get it. On his track.

Maur Hill is the preppy rich kids, A-high is the true heart of Atchison.
