Head Of Class: Tennessee Freshmen Top 10 Boys - All Events

Ben Thompson

Ravenwood's Clayton Blanton did not have a documented time in a hurdle event until this indoor season but the winter experience is already showing dividends in the spring. Through three races in the 300m hurdles he has improved his time every week and currently sits atop the Class of 2027 rankings for the event.
