Henry had the run of his life last Wednesday, competing in the 1600m at the NYSAIS Indoor Championships. Having only broken the elusive five-minute barrier one week prior, Henry dropped an incredible six seconds, finishing in 4:53.07 and taking 13th place out of 30 competitors. Given the incredible improvements he has made this season, we can't wait to see what Henry will do this spring in the outdoor track and field season!
