Kenny Cormier was the Foot Locker CC national champion; a year later, he was an All-American at Arkansas as a frosh; two years after that, he walked away from the sport to enlist in the Marine Corps. Where is he now? That’s a bit complicated.

I remember the name. Good article.

It is always so interesting to see how the Foot Locker finalists always pan out. I am still amazed that Mike Fout beat both Chris Derrick and German Fernandez in 2008. Of course, Chris was sick and was diagnosed with mono shortly after, but it was that Derrick and Fernandez were two of the better runners to come through in a couple of years.
