Incoming freshman Arman Hall (Pembroke Pines, Fla.) teamed up
with the U.S. men’s 4x400 to bring home the Gold on the final day of the 2012
IAAF World Junior Track & Field Championships at Montjuïc Olympic Stadium.
Hall ran a 45.78 split on the anchor leg of the relay,
crossing the finish in 3:03.99 to set a new junior-world-leading time for the
top spot on the medal stand.
The U.S. men’s 4x400 has now won the last six and all but
two golds in World Junior Championships history.
“It’s
great to finally get on the medal stand with a gold medal,” Hall said. “It’s a
great feeling being around all of these talented guys. It was a lot of fun. I
wish I could do this again soon. It was a great experience to come overseas
again. Great environment, great experience, and great people – I loved
it.”
