The 2010 Outdoor season is now underway! At the Florida Elite All-Comers in Orlando, running some untraditional outdoor events, they brought together some of the top local talent and a large contingent from Oak Ridge High School. But the big start of the day came from about an hour south down US 27. Octavious Freeman, a junior from Lake Wales, shook the dust off of her legs with a big big opener. Her 300 meter time of 40.34 (almost two seconds ahead of her closest competitor) was pretty impressive, but the really amazing one was her 60 meter performance! Running away from the others in this short sprint by a whopping half a second, she came through in 7.50!! In most events its hard to compare indoor and outdoor times because of the curves, but there are no curves in an indoor 60m. So compared with her indoor counterparts, that 7.50 puts her #2 in the nation at 60m. Looks like she's ready to pick up where she left off last spring. Complete results from Florida Elite...
