Five-Star Ohio State Wide Receiver Commit Jamier Brown Wins OHSAA Division II 100-Meter State Title
"He's fast. He's really, really fast. I mean, he's so fast, he makes fast people look... not fast."
Those were the words said by Unger in
The Longest Yard.
The same can be said for five-star Ohio State wide receiver commit Jamier Brown, who won the OHSAA Division II 100-meter state title on Sunday.
Brown finished with a time of 10.42 seconds in the final after running the 100-meter dash in 10.47 seconds in the preliminaries. The 5-foot-11, 192-pounder set a Division II state record in the 100-meter (10.35 seconds) in the Lexington regional to qualify for the state meet.
He also won the 200-meter state title in Division II record 20.91 seconds, beating his then-record 20.94 time he ran last weekend in regionals. Brown was part of Big Walnut's 4x100-meter relay, which finished in 41.53 seconds to win the state title, his third championship of the day.
Just sayin': Here are a couple names from the past.....
Troy Lane of Pickerington Central set the Ohio high school boys' 100-meter dash record with a time of 10.25 seconds in June 2022. With this run, he broke the previous overall state record of 10.38 seconds, which had been held by Piqua's
Brandon Saine since 2006.
Lane committed to UK Athletics to compete in the ultra-competitive SEC. While transitioning to the collegiate level, he has built upon his shorter sprint pedigree, recording personal bests such as a 6.76-second time in the indoor 60-meter dash. Academically, Lane entered college with a focus on studying aerospace engineering. Athleticism runs deep in his family; his grandfather,
Garcia Lane, was a starting defensive back for Ohio State and played in the NFL for the Kansas City Chiefs.
