Boling was one of the top track athletes in the state of Texas and the nation. As a junior, Boling had success winning the Texas 6A long jump state championship and finished second in the 400 meters. Boling did not start running the 100-meter dash until his senior year of high school. That decision to start running that event proved to be one of the best decisions that he made. His senior season was one to remember. When he started competing in the 100-meter dash, he started gaining attention locally based on his times. In the track world, running the 100 meters shows how fast and how good someone’s technique is. It’s not about just going out there and running your fastest, there’s a lot that factors into running a successful 100-meter race, and Boling excelled at that. At first, Boling was a normal 18-year-old high school senior, but he would become the face of high school track and field. Boling would continue to finish with times that were some of the best in the country in the 100-meters.
