“Tie your laces tight, old man, because I’m about to blow you out of your shoes.”
“I will spank you like the little boy you are, son!”
“Boys, boys, boys…”
There can only be one King in the King Family!
It’s all been building up to this moment, as former Coupeville High School running gods Kyle and Tyler King prepare to face off for the first, last and only time as college cross country runners.
Well, unless they meet at the NCAA championships, but I’m trying to hype this up, so let’s just ignore that fact…
Sure, there may be close to 500 runners at today’s 4th annual Wisconsin Adidas Invitational in Madison, with 46 mens’ teams and 49 womens’ squads competing in the biggest cross country race of the regular season, but only one thing truly matters — which King wins the battle of brothers.
Run at the Thomas Zimmer Championship Cross Country Course, the 8K battle royal will feature just about every ranked team in the land, with Kyle King’s 4th ranked University of Oklahoma squad looking to take out defending NCAA champ Wisconsin. The redshirt senior will be joined by his redshirt freshman lil’ brother, who wears the purple and gold of the University of Washington.
In one corner, Kyle King! In the other, Tyler King! Come out running and may the best man win and forever claim the title of King of the King family … and second best athlete in the family!!
Yeah, you heard me right. Older sister Brianne King is still the the best athlete in the family, hands down. Accept it and move on, boys. You have a race to run.
