  Coffee's Tyreek Hill Poses after his Incredible 20.94!! Image by Bruce Taylor ga.milesplit.com

  For the first time in the history of the Georgia Olympics the elusive 21 mark was shattered by Coffee County's amazing senior Tyreek Hill. Watching the real time scoreboard next to the Track, the crowd oohed, aahed, and jumped up in unison as Hill neared the finish line, himself watching the clock also as he celebrated in a trademark "flying" posture as he crossed the finish line. Hill also easily won the 100 meters clocking a swift 10.44 and won the LJ THursday in 23-11.5. He propelled Coffee to an amazing 2nd place team finish at 34 points with a little help from his friends down south in Douglas.
  
  Team Champs crowned were Athens Christian in A, though Darlington and Wesleyan made valiant runs this day at the Eagles. Putnam County sealed the AA title behind Jabrelle Crawford as they won the 4x400 relay surpassing Elbert County. Carrollton just had too much Jonathan Jones as he also scored 30 individual points passing Field Event loaded Westover for good in the 200 meters. Kell capitalized on their 2 stars who have female siblings that are also great Track athletes led by Jordan Chambers in the Field and sealing the title in the 300 hurdles was Devon Williams. Brookwood hung on for dear life after KIsean Smith placed 2nd in the 800 meters with help in the 4x400 relay trainwreck at the finish line.
  
  Some other incredible times were ran by Sprayberry's Michael Newton as he was too fast and strong in the 400 meters clocking a 46.62 and ran a sick anchor leg in the 4x400 relay taking the baton 15 meters behind leader Mays and jetted Sprayberry into sole possession of 2nd place. Jordan Moore of MLK closed out an outstanding HS career blowing away everyone in the 110 hurdles clocking a sweet 13.45  Each 800 meter race was exciting with every class running faster and faster until Wheeler's Adel Yoonis had the race of the day crossing the line in 1:52. 06
  
  The 4x400 relays were very competitive in each class and became outright physical and personal in the AAAA race as 4 teams were Dq'd and the baton was knocked loose from Luella within 5 meters of the finish line costing them perhaps a team title tie with Brookwood in AAAAA...But Stone Mountain in AAA just blew away everyone clocking a 3:15.28.
