Kick Of The Week: Virginia State Meet Class 5A Boys Showdown


This might not only be the Kick Of The Week but possibly the kick of the year. With 100m to go, Gloucester High School's (VA) Joshua Shackelford looked like he had the Class 5A VHSL State Cross Country Championship title in the bag, but Deep Run's Colby Burcham had other plans. 

Burcham made a surge in the last 100m of the race and nabbed the win from Burcham at the line in one of the closest state meet finishes we've seen this year. Both athletes ran 16:08 but the race came down to the hundredth of a second with Burcham holding the slight advantage.
