In his track and field debut two weeks ago, former Boone standout and Florida State freshman Marvin Bracy opened with a world #6 time of 6.64 and followed that up with a blazing 6.61 at the Razorback Invitational. This week he did one better going 6.57 in the prelims and a blistering 6.54 in the finals at the Arkansas Tyson Invitational. The mark ties him for world #4 and U.S. #1 with fellow American and Olympian Mike Rodgers. Bracy's time is the number one time in the NCAA this year. His time also breaks the former FSU record set by Maurice Mitchell of 6.55.
