Tasmania is the smallest state in Australia. This kid has come out of nowhere.

His secret? Box jumps, he said.
"I've started doing them about three months ago and I've been doing them three times a week, weighted box jumps I think they have really helped me," he said.
Wow, imagine when he starts doing real exercises! I wonder what the wind was. All they say is that they had an official wind gauge in operation but don't actually say what it was.

holy shit.

The wind was +1.2

It was a tailwind of 3.4 so it's not legal but it's still an excellent performance.
Definitely a name to watch out for.

nice! glad to see he's still beastin`.
we've got a guy like that in the US that you probably know of: trayvon bromell. he set the world junior record in 2014 for 100m, and now he should be competing in Rio @ 100m & 200m, i think.. very unassuming build as well (like hale).

Bromell is in another league compared to this kid. Australia has some good U20 sprinters atm. Josh Clarke is 20 years old so doesn't count as an U20, but he recently ran a 10.16. Hale ran a 10.21 and fellow 18 year old sprinter Trae Williams ran 10.27 a few months back as well. Hopefully at least 1 of them can go on to break sub 10.

Rohan Browning is the winner of the VenuesWest 100m at the Jandakot Airport Track Classic in 10.06 (+ 2.2).
2nd – Jack Hale (10.10)
3rd – Jake Doran (10.25)
10.10 in +2.2 wind conditions for Jack Hale. He still doesn't look like he lifts though haha
