Hicks now owns four of the top seven times all-time in Wisconsin in the 300m hurdles. He also ranks tied for 17th nationally this outdoor season among all boys 300m hurdles runners.
While he didn't move up the ranks in the 300m hurdles since he was already the state record holder, he did move up the ranks in the 110m hurdles with a historic performance.
Hicks ran a time of 13.97 in the 110m hurdles, becoming just the second boy in state history to run under 14 seconds. This equated to a 0.41 seconds victory, a 0.13 second PR and the #2 time in Wisconsin state history. He also ranks tied for 94th in the event nationally this season.
Now one must wonder...without the -0.6 wind that slowed him down, might he be a 2x state record holder?
