Kone, a junior, started an amazing two-plus months of track and field
with a national championship in the 60-meter dash at the NCAA indoor
meet at Grinnell College in Iowa in mid-March. He fought back after
suffering a hamstring injury in the 2011 indoor meet in the
championship final of the 55 dash.

At Claremont-Mudd-Scripps in California, Kone dominated the 100 with a
10.24 in the championship final. The time was the third-fastest in
NCAA Division III history, second-fastest in NCAA meet history, a
stadium record, and a school record. Kone also dominated the prelims
at the NCAA meet with a 10.39.

Kone is spending the summer working with University of Virginia
professors on parasite research.
