Leading seven laps of eight is an impressive feat.
Add that it was done by a freshmen.
Cheyenne Mountain's Aiden Le Roux might have come up one place short of victory, but the courage to lead the 3,200 at the Great Southwest Track & Field Classic was a victory of its own.
Le Roux took charge from the opening strides and led about 2,700 meters of the 3,200.
He finished with a 9:57.32 clocking.
That marks the sixth consecutive time he broke 10-minutes this season.
What's additionally impressive is the fact that earlier in the day Le Roux clocked a personal best of 4:34.78 in the 1,600.
