Cory Poole - East Orange Campus - 7.13

On Saturday at the VA Showcase in Lynchburg, Virginia East Orange Campus senior Cory Poole ran a ridiculous PR of 7.13 to improve his US#1 spot, break the state record, and move into the top ten all-time in US high school history at this distance. 

Poole's previous best in the event came at the Super Essex Conference Championships when he ran 7.31 on December 29th. Check out our feature on the historic run for a more in depth article and post race interview.
