Being the boys sprint champion of Texas automatically makes you a favorite in any other meet, so Earvin Parker's 10.29 / 20.70 double in the Texas 5A (big schools) championships 2 weeks ago made him the heavy favorite here. The Lewisville TX senior easily won the same double here without looking pressed in 10.31 +2.9 and 20.89 -1.1.

100m finish - 485 Parker, 493 Kendrick Singleton TX, and 379 Jay Cooper OK are 1-2-3 in that order. At the end, Singleton laughed, "I almost got you."

200 finish - 1. Parker (485), 2. Robert Smith TX (494), 3. Kendrick Singleton TX (493).
