Kick of the Week - May 12th

May 12, 2010

The 2009 Florida 4A 1600 meter state champ, Armando del Valle, came into the 3200 after finishing second in this year's 1600 (4:15) to face 3-time returning FL state champ Brian Atkinson. Atkinson, a senior looking to go out on top, made a move with 250 to go, but it wasn't enough. del Valle dropped a nasty kick at the 170 mark that left Atkinson in his wake as he tried to stay afloat. del Valle ended the day with 2 state titles (4x800-7:51 and 3200-9:07) to go with his runner up finish....not a bad day for the Columbus junior!
