This is a perfect example of how to keep video fun and resonating. Verzbicas getting his award from the high school record holder and American record holder in the mile, Alan Webb, is nice touch from the Gatorade folks as well!
Lukas Verzbicas as the Gatorade Boys XC Runner of the Year? Of course! The young man has now won in 2009 and 2010. He also won the 2009 and 2010 FootLocker and the NXN 2010 title.
And on top of that, he is going to become a Duck! (Well, allegedly).
