  "account": "A project to compile Livingston County's top boys track and field performances resulted in an extensive list. The team strived to include at least five performances per event, with the majority sourced from the Athletic.net era. However, some older performances, particularly from the 1990s, were missing from record boards and not listed on A.net. Readers were encouraged to submit any overlooked performances to billkhan35@gmail.com. The list also faced challenges when dealing with sprints, as hand-timed performances were converted.\n\nThe 100-meter and 200-meter events have relatively few recorded times, with only electronically timed performances included. Notable performances include Cameron Cheetham from Hartland setting the 100-meter record at 10.71 seconds in 2024, and Tim Scott from Fowlerville achieving 21.66 seconds in the 200-meter in 2002 during the Division 2 state finals.\n\nIn the 400-meter event, Cameron Cheetham of Hartland holds the record with a time of 47.67 seconds, recorded in the 2024 Division 1 state finals. Dylan Reason from Pinckney achieved 48.50 seconds in the same division's 2021 finals. Brian Cermak of Brighton set a time of 48.91 seconds during the 2004 event.\n\nThe 800-meter record belongs to Todd Snyder from Brighton, who clocked 1:52.7 seconds at the 1991 Larry Steeb Memorial Meet of Champions. Riley Hough of Hartland broke the record with a time of 1:52.72 during the 2022 Freeland Falcon Invitational.\n\nThe 1600-meter event features Riley Hough of Hartland holding the record at 4:04.95 seconds, recorded during the 2022 Barnyard Invite at Romeo. Paul Moore of Pinckney achieved 4:12.76 seconds in the 2024 Division 2 state finals.\n\nThe 110 hurdles list includes Kevin Henry from Fowlerville, who set the record at 14.48 seconds in 2004. Sam Burtts from Pinckney achieved 14.64 seconds during the 2026 Division 2 state meet. Kurt Reichenbach from Pinckney set the record with 14.74 seconds in 2008 at the regional level.\n\nThe 300 hurdles event's record of 38.84 seconds belongs to Kurt Reichenbach from Pinckney, recorded during the 2008 regional at Holt (converted from hand time of 38.6). Austin Ouillette from Pinckney achieved 38.96 seconds in the 2026 Division 2 state finals.\n\nThe 400 relay team from Howell, comprising Mark Coughanour, Austin Pederson, Anthony Patritto, and Gardener, holds the record with a time of 42.90 seconds during the 2011 Division 1 state finals. Pinckney's Chris Hohn, Scott Greenman, Matt Trujillo, and Adam Wild recorded 43.00 seconds in the same division's 2001 event.\n\nThe 800 relay team from Brighton, consisting of Xavier James, Sam Meriweather, Mason Gay, and Luke Bellino, set the record with 1:27.03 seconds during the 2025 Division 1 state finals. Brighton's Scott Spaanstra, Will Jontz, Brendon Edoff, and Chris Seguin achieved a time of 1:28.70 during the same division's 2019 regional at Milford.\n\nThe 1600 relay record of 3:19.60 seconds belongs to Brighton's Sean Steffer, Steve Dempsey, Brian Cermak, and Jon Twork, recorded during the 2002 Division 1 state finals. Brighton's Will Jontz, Scott Spaanstra, Tommy Kocab, and Ramsey Jordan achieved a time of 3:22.05 during the 2003 Division 1 state finals.\n\nThe 3200 relay record of 7:49.08 seconds is held by Brighton's Brady Millington, Zach Wyderko, Elijah Forbord, and Blake Kulesza, recorded during the 2025 Division 1 state finals. Pinckney's David Emery, Jake Hohl, James Getzen, and Brian Hankins set the time at 7:49.45 during the same division's 2007 event.",
