Minors Claims Four State Championship Wins

February 18, 2013

dage minors[Updated] Bermuda’s Dage Minors had a standout performance in the Vermont High School Indoor Track & Field State Championships, powering to victories in the 1600m [4:34.37], 1000m [2:43.26] and 600m [1:25.68].

Minors — a Carifta medalist — accomplished his triple win in back-to-back fashion, then went on to anchor his school’s 4×400 relay team in their winning efforts.

It was a couple-hour stretch that even impressed his coach Chip Langmaid, the Burlington Free Press reported. “His workouts have been unbelievable,” said Mr Langmaid. “He’s been phenomenal – it’s scary.”

Dage attends St. Johnsbury Academy in Vermont, where he is a consistent top performer, often winning races and the holder of many school records.

Update: Dage was named the State’s Boys Athlete of the Year during the awards ceremony.

    I saw when this young chap started running – must have been 7 or 8 years old at the time.
    I also know the parents – which have stuck behind him. — especially his father.
    Personally I looking at big things from him – if he keeps it up – such as
    a Medal Gold at the Olympic”s , our 24th race and hopefully all this fine running from this young man gets him
    a University scholarship .
    Watch out for this young man in the future.
