Joseph “Tay” Betts of Kilmarnock is sprinting his way into the record books at Radford University. Betts, a 2011 graduate of Lancaster High School and a fresh- man at the Division 1 school, recently set a new school record in the 100-meter dash. Betts ran the 100 in 10.59 at the Wake Forest Open two weeks ago in the first meet of the season. The previous record was 10.67. Unfortunately, Betts’ record was broken last week by senior teammate Allen Doom, who ran the 100 in 10.5. Betts ran a personal best of 10.54 in the 100-meter at the Flor- ida Pepsi Relay last week and is confident he can re-set the Rad- ford record. “[Mine] is a good time for a freshman,” said Betts. “But I still think I can run a lot faster than I’m running.” Betts was ranked 25th in the NCAA East Region among 100- meter sprinters. The ranking was released Monday. He’s also close to breaking the Radford record in the 200-meter with a 21.4 time in Florida last week. The school record is 21.2. A four-sport athlete at Lancaster, Betts was the 2011 Group A state champion in the 100-meter dash.
