From LATimes.com:
Junior De'Anthony Thomas of Los Angeles Crenshaw turned in the fastest time in the nation this year in the 200 when he won in 20.61. The wind level was 2.1 meters per second, barely over the allowable 2.0.
Thomas, the Cougars' standout running back who has committed to USC, was elated with his time.
"They got to watch out for the Black Mamba," he said of his competitors at next weekend's state meet.
Thomas also won the 100 in his season-best time of 10.57.
George Farmer and Robert Woods also impressed at the Southern Section. Robert fell short in the 400m by .006 seconds but posted the 2nd-fastest time in the nation this year:
In a photo finish that could have used an assist from an electron microscope, Mance prevailed in 46.164 seconds, .006 ahead of Wood's 46.170. They were the fastest two times in the nation this year and easily qualified both for the state meet next Friday and Saturday at Clovis Buchanan High.
George Farmer clocked a 10.55 100m which is the 4th-fastest time in the state.
