WATCH: Dillon Mitchell Wins 100M Dash Gold Medal with Blazing 9.92
Sheldon C.E. King Panthers sophomore sensation Dillon Mitchell wins Class 6A Gold in the 100M dash with a 9.92 at the UIL State Track and Field Meet.
AUSTIN -- Sheldon C.E. King sophomore superstar Dillon Mitchell closed out the track season heard around Texas with a 9.92 100M dash, winning the Class 6A Gold Medal.
Mitchell became a household name last fall by earning Newcomer of the Year in the toughest district in Texas, compiling 1,800 all-purpose yards and helping C.E. King improve from 5-5 to 13-3. But his spring track season has launched him into a different stratosphere of fame. The 16-year-old set the Under-18 world record in the 60M sprint with a 6.61 at the US Indoor Track and Field Championships. He also recorded a 9.88 100M dash, the third-fastest all-conditions time in US High School history.
