Christ School junior Rocky Hansen clocked a NC No. 6 all-time and NC Junior Class record in the 3,200m at Arcadia in California clocking 8:51.60!
He breaks Cameron Ponder class record of 8:56.49 from the 2017 Arcadia Invitational.
Arcadia is known for its elite 3,200m field and this year did not disappoint. Jacob Laney (Porter Ridge) ran in the elite section, but fell with 1,200m to go. He managed to fight through and still clock 8:58.12.
They become the 2nd and 3rd juniors in state history to break 9:00.
Hansen already holds the junior class record for the indoor mile. He took home the national title in the indoor mile and two mile at adidas Indoor Nationals last month. He was also the NCISAA 4A XC state champion in the fall.
