Woodside senior Brandon Burton (pictured above by Ryan Kelly) continued where he left off from in the indoor season by dropping another second from his PR 1:53 All-American run at the National Scholastic Indoor Championships with a US #5 1:52.6 800 meter performance on Saturday at the CNU High School Captain's Classic. Many state leading performances and automatic state qualiers were recorded in the meet, which was the largest in the state to date this spring with 1,200+ athletes competing. Look for plenty of photos & videos from the meet to be posted on Sunday and Monday. Complete results and performances entered in the database.
