Athlete and Arkansas target Connor O’Toole’s desire to win was on full display when he dove at the finish line of the 100 meters at the Class 5A state meet on May 18.
He finished second with a time of 10.70 seconds to rival Montez Wright’s 10.69.
“I knew it was going to be a tight race from the beginning,” O’Toole said. “A quick thought ran through my head and I just dove. I wanted to win it, so I gave it everything I had.”
He paid the price for his dive.
