Burgess Sets Framingham High Indoor Mile Record

BOSTON – Framingham High senior Sam Burgess set the Framingham High School indoor mile record today, January 29, at the coaches track meet at the Reggie Lewis Center in Boston.

Burgess finished second in the mile event at the MSTCA Coaches Invitational meet. His time was 4:18.58 minutes, a personal best.

Newton North High School’s Tyler Tubman won the mile event in 4:17.22 minutes. It was a season best time for him.

Burgess has the fourth fastest time in the state in the mile, said Coach Chris Collins.

Collins said it was a “good run to begin prepping to defend his all-state 2-mile title.”

Burgess has committed to Harvard University in the fall.

During the fall cross-country season he qualified for nationals and finished 7th in the country.
