OHSAA track: St. Vincent-St. Mary wins Division II boys championship

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Parris Campbell was feeling it.

The St. Vincent-St. Mary junior made sure he was in sprint mode early in the morning and it paid huge dividends Saturday afternoon as the Irish won the Division II state boys track championship at Ohio State's Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. Keyed by two furious pushes from Campbell's anchor slot, SVSM won both sprint relays in stirring fashion on its way to putting up 49 points.

Campbell threw in a second-place finish in the 100-meter dash and would have gone after the 200 later in the day. But he was scratched from that one late Friday afternoon when he had recurring swelling in his right knee.

That's what had the Ohio State football recruit running around his hotel room at 7:30 a.m.

"I did a little jog," said Campbell, who ran the final leg on the 4x200 to help set a division record time of 1:28.87. "It's happened before and I was just putting ice on it. I knew I'd be fine."

The race of the day occurred when SVSM used its quartet of Jordan Sensabaugh, Jarel Wooldridge, Fransohn Bickley and Campbell to go against Orange's top-ranked 4x100 team of Malcolm Harris, Colton Kaufman, John Flynn and standout Will Carter.

It was pure speed down the lane between Campbell and Carter, with the SVSM runner getting the lean in 42.26 seconds. Carter's time was 42.28.

"All I was thinking was first place, first place, first place," said Campbell. "I had no doubt in my mind. This is my future home. I had to put on a good show."

I posit the freakish-ness of Parris Campbell is understated.

He is not freaking 16 years old yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of the "High School" kids he is competing against are 18.


I submit his age group times would be deemed near world class/prodigy levels.

A red-shirt year may be benificial to Master Campbell.

By the time his career at OSU is over (which could be when he is 19 or 20) he will be Wet Dream for Combine junkies.
