‘That kid is just way too fast.’ East’s Will Prettyman dazzles with his speed, composure

East High junior Will Prettyman crossed the finish line with enough space between him and the rest of the pack to fit a small motorhome.

“That kid is just way too fast,” a spectator said to the woman next to her as they watched the boys’ 200 meters at Thursday’s All-City Meet.

Prettyman, the defending Class 4A state champion in the 100, 200 and long jump, entered this season as the guy to beat in his classification.

With a host of national championships under his belt, the composure that he’s developed to go with his talent has made him a formidable opponent in all three of his events.
