Things have started to “click” for Brian Crimmins these past few weeks, he says.

He’s broken multiple school records for the Buffalo track and field team and has placed himself among the top runners in the entire country. There are talks of him trying to earn a spot at the Olympic Trials.

But just few months ago, the senior distance runner wasn’t breaking records or receiving accolades. He wasn’t on the track at all.

He was rehabbing in a pool for an hour to an hour and a half every day while recovering from a torn lateral meniscus.
