Hunter Furr sprints to 100, 200 victories

Posted May 25, 2009
Bigger, more determined and just as fast, Hunter Furr of Mount Tabor did what he set out to in yesterday's NCHSAA Class 4-A track-and-field championships at N.C. A&T. Furr, sporting an additional 15 pounds of muscle gained since the end of football season, got his mass moving in the right direction. He won the 100- and 200-meter sprints and anchored a 4x100 team that also won a state championship on the way to winning the MVP award. (Winston-Salem Journal)
