Rodney proved to be the “fastest man” at the 2013 Metropolitan Outdoor Championships. The Blackbird flew to victory in the 100m dash in 10.52. The time was .04 second faster than his previous seasonal best, which was already good enough to rank him first on the NEC leader board. After striking gold in his individual race at the Mets, Rodney ran the second leg of the Blackbirds’ winning 4x400m relay team. His latest 100m performance, Rodney has put himself on the cusp of qualifying for the NCAA East Region Championships.
