C.E. King High School sophomore Dillon Mitchell, with US number-one 60m time, remains grounded while targeting the 2028 Olympics.

C.E. King High School sophomore Dillon Mitchell continues to break records, setting the US number-one time in the 60 meters. The 16-year-old phenom, coached by his father Billy since age four, remains humble despite his achievements. 'It's really no big deal,' Mitchell said. 'I've been building for it my whole life.' His father emphasizes Mitchell is racing against history's best athletes. While Mitchell plans to play football and run track in college, his immediate focus is qualifying for the 2028 Olympics while enjoying his teenage years.
