National press takes note of Gault world record
The clock is ticking on WMA. Today in Indianapolis, Willie Gault ran the fastest 100 meters ever by an M45, clocking 10.72 with a legal wind of 1.0 meters per second, and beat a field of M40s to boot. Now how long will it take for his time to be ratified as a world age-group record? No excuses. Willie's 10.72 (picked up by the major wire service) not only beat the listed M45 American and world record of 10.96 by Neville Hodge but also trounced the American M40 age-group record of 10.80 by Aaron Thigpen at last year's Hawaii masters nationals!

There is also a story on the official Tennessee Volunteer web site.

Home boy. I was on JV track in HS when he was a senior. We had to sit and watch them run. There are no words to describe his speed in person. Heck he still runs the 100m in 10.7. Alot of college sprinters can barely beat that.
