Check out the top 500 boys cross country 3 mile times in the state of Utah in the MileSplit database as of September 5th. Could the defending NXN champ Casey Clinger not even be the best runner on his team this fall? He's always had competition from his American Fork teammate McKay Johns since they came onto the scene as freshmen.
However, it was another senior on their national powerhouse squad in Patrick Parker, who led the team in a dominant showing at their Pre Region 4 Meet with a 3 second win of 14:23 over Clinger last Wednesday. Parker ran in the adidas Dream Mile this past spring with a 4:06 PR performance for the full mile in Boston. (Photo by Mary Ann Magnant)
