Brady Gehret, the superstar of the 2010 PA track class has already made a name for himself at the college level.

It is the fourth fastest 4x4 time posted in the NCAA. Also running for Penn State Ijeoma Iheoma ran a 55.88 for the 400m, currently ranking her 34th in the nation.
Sam Ellison, Upper Dublin graduate competing for Villanova, ran his first ever race at the Armory this past weekend and grabbed a first place finish as well as a US #4 62.76 for 500m.
