2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

[HarrietTubmanCane]

That’s what I mean. He had a better spot in his hands and tossed it away. Can be a big deal for the 200

My fault, I assumed you were wondering how he ended up in that lane. You right, he thru it away.

 

[Pentagon Cane]

2024 will be his Olympics. 4th place for a 17 year old. Unbelievable.

Read that he is faster than Usain Bolt at same age in the 200.

 

[umfire]

First American under 18 to finish that high in an Olympic track event in almost 70 years. Safe to say he made the right decision

GO BIG RED......

Fun race with a good feel winner. DeGrasse, not sure how anyone could dislike this dude.

So happy for Kenny. He really came out of nowhere onto the scene. He's a quiet guy who is overshadowed by Lyles. So humble and I was thrilled to see him get the silver.

The kid, no shame in 4th. Amazing accomplishment and it'll push him to 2024. Biggest stage and he looked nervous. Once he gets the start, turn, more international experience, and builds up his strength, the sky is the limit. He's literally in uncharted territory and I look forward to see what his future holds.

Lyles can't be happy with that. Back to the drawing board, but sometimes you need a result like this to push you when you're young and already at the top.

His competition was training for Tokyo four years ago. Four years ago this kid was 13 playing angry birds

I have to ask ad well, but I'd this the worst USA uniform ever?

Erriyon Knighton, teen who broke Usain Bolt junior records, shatters another

Erriyon Knighton, who last year at age 17 broke Usain Bolt junior sprint records, shattered his own U20 record in the 200m.

olympics.nbcsports.com

19.49 in his latest 200.

2nd fastest American ever behind the great Michael Johnson.

Fastest time in the world since 2012 Bolt in the Olympics.

Insanity. I can't believe how fast his times are increasing. You never know what will happen to a track star, but I wouldn't bet against this young man becoming our biggest track star ever and possible 200 WR holder one day.

Shoot, I would win gold then go right to football with how good his hands were. He would be a National sensation.

18 years old and shut it down the last five yards. Could have knocked off a few tenths more. Looked so smooth out there.

What's wayyyyyyy more impressive is what Michael Johnson did from 94-96.....

 

[CoachDannyMiaz]

.3 seconds off Bolt's all time record and he's 18 years old and he looks like he took his foot off the gas at the end.

I dare say Usain's records are in danger.

 

[COCane4Life]

I was dead wrong on this it’s hard to predict the next greaT American sprinter but he’s that dude

 

[canecrazy23]

GO BIG RED......

 

[CaneFanWNY]

Absolutely insane. Hope that man gets PAID.

 

[supacane]

He is lanky, have to hope a growth spurt doesnt cause him injuries. It happened to Bolt from around 18-21 or so. That was impressive though, he was gone. I wanna see him run the 100m. He probably needs some more power to increase his short area explosion.

 

[McKenzieMoore]

What's wayyyyyyy more impressive is what Michael Johnson did from 94-96.....

Michael Johnson was 10 years older than Knighton during that time frame.

 

[SWFLHurricane]

Michael Johnson was 10 years older than Knighton during that time frame.

Well aware....it was also 28yrs earlier....

Sheesh that dude is cruising
