Hillside's Marcus Krah opened up in the boys 110 meter hurdles prelims at the Taco Bell Classic with a wind legal US #2 clocking of 13.85. After that sensational performance, some thought was given if he could challenge the meet record of 13.80 in the finals, which is one of the older meet records on the books at Taco Bell dating back to 1991.
While Krah enjoyed a favorable tailwind (+1.0) in the prelims, the finals unfortunately changed into a slight headwind (-0.5) to slow Krah down as he just missed out on another sub 14 second race at the meet. However, the name of the game is winning, which the Hillside senior certainly did that by an incredible margin over 5 tenths of a second against a New York state champion caliber hurdler in Infinite Tucker of Huntington. Krah was timed at 14.02, while Tucker was second at 14.56.
