Mead senior Tavon Underwood was showered with cheers after his first-place finish at Jeffco Stadium. But the cheers grew even louder when the public announcer shouted that his time of 45.36 broke the Colorado prep record that had stood since 2006. copreps
LAKEWOOD – Mead senior Tavon Underwood’s record-smashing performance in the Class 4A 400-meter dash at the CHSAA state track and field meet Saturday was mesmerizing, a true testament to his lighting speed.
“We all saw this coming,” said Underwood, who wasn’t far off from the national record of 45.19 set in 2012. “It was just a matter of whether or not I could execute. And I did.” Drew White is in his first season as Mead’s coach, yet Underwood has given him enough memorable moments that it’s hard to keep straight. After the 400-meter race, Underwood blazed through the 200 in 20.93 seconds, shattering the 4A state meet record. On Friday, he won the 4A boys 800 in 1:51.97 despite competing in that event for the second time in his track career.
