One of the more underappreciated targets in the Big 12 last season was Mason Fairchild (@fairchild_mason)

The Kansas (@KU_Football) tight end was 4th among FBS TEs in EPA/Target, 4th in Boom %, and 3rd in Bust % (min 30 targets) 👀

Absolutely unreal field today in the 4A boys javelin.
Andale picks up 23 points. Riley Marx and Jonah Meyer both go over 200 feet. Marx wins the event at 206-11, just shy of a state meet record. Meyer throws 202-6 to finish runner-up.
Cooper Marx 4th at 186-4
