Matt Payamps Runs 4:12.39 For Mile Win In Boston -

NEW BALANCE INDOOR GRAND PRI

Boston, MA - Senior Matt Payamps (Saint Anthony's) picked up another big win this weekend, taking home gold at the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix.  He was invited to the Junior Boy's Mile, which pulled in several big names from the northeast.  After sitting just off the leader for much of the race, he kicked past for the win, much like he did en route to his 1000m win down at the VA Showcase.  Payamps crossed the line at 4:12.39, a new Indoor Personal Best.

The mark is now US #1, and makes him the odds-on favorite for the Millrose Games in two weeks.  There, he will likely face an equally challenging field, although the stakes may be a bit higher.  The Millrose Games are one of the oldest Track Meets around, Indoors or Out, and the HS Mile is stuff of legend.  Payamps raced their the year before, but only finished 8th.  Surely, he has higher aspirations this year.  A New Yorker hasn't won the prestigious event since 2015, while a NY State Catholic School athlete hasn't won since Vince Draddy (Iona Prep) back in 1979.  Plenty is on the line this year.
