Illinois track and field star Jon Davis capped a legendary career Friday night with a First-Team All-America nod.
Davis placed sixth in the men’s 1,500m final with a time of 3:46:15.
I don’t know a ton about track and field, but I do know that Davis has been DOMINANT since arriving on campus in 2016 (which feels like a lifetime ago). A four-time All-American, Davis is probably best known for becoming the 498th American to run the mile in under four minutes (3:58:46 in 2018). Kudos to the Oakwood native!
Oh, and the fun continues Saturday when Illinois junior Olivia Howell runs in the 1,500m final at the NCAA Championships.
