Samuel Kosgei Smashes School 5000m record - world class time

[Crazy Card Fan]

NCAA All American Samuel Kosgei ran 13:35.75 at this weekends Mt. Sac Relays in California, to break current teammate Francis Kasagules record by about 30seconds.
his time puts him right up with the very elite in the NCAA and he beat several pro runners in the race.
I hope everyone on this board realizes how Lucky Lamar is to have an athlete of this caliber at the school, the performance of some of the distance runners & golfers at Lamar puts Basketball / Baseball to shame!
