Anthony Schwartz, a highly-coveted college football and track and field prospect from Plantation American Heritage (FL), ran the fastest 100m time ever recorded in March on Friday at the Pepsi Florida Relays, posting a 10.15 second time that beat the former meet record by .02 seconds and set a new World Youth record in the process for a U18 athlete.
His 10.15 second performance stands as the sixth-best all-time high school effort at the distance and he became the second Floridian to post a time that fast.
It's the second-best time in the junior class, only falling .01 seconds short of former TC Williams (Va.) speedster Noah Lyles.
