Topic: Congratulations to Da Kid from Da Hills, now Da Man from Da Hills

Congratulations to Kyle Merber on his thrilling victory in the Millrose Games Boys High School Mile Run in a torrid time of 4:13.86 for the 11-lap to the mile oval in Madison Square Garden.  Many will argue that his time of 4:12.42 in the Reebok High School Mile at the Reggie Lewis Center in Boston is "faster" than tonight's victory.  However, take it from someone who knows what it's like to run on that "little" oval in Madison Square Garden, tonight's time is superior to the Boston time, even though it may appear to be slower from just looking at the numbers.  Kyle's growth and development this past year has been nothing short of great and he is truly now "Da Man from Da Hills!"  Our hats are off to you Kyle.

 Just one person's observations.

I cant get over that picture but thank you very much. But now all the attention is focused on the team for tomorrow.  Congrats to Northport on their large school victory. They have a great program over there and they are very well balanced in all areas. Good luck to everyone tomorrow!
