Cedar Rapids Kennedy senior Famiek Cook is the winner of the Metro Spotlight Award for high school boys this week, the Metro Sports Report announced Sunday.
Cook won two events at the Mississippi Valley Conference indoor track meet in Cedar Falls last Monday. He captured the 200 meter dash in 23.21 seconds and won the long jump at 21 feet, 3 inches.
Cook enjoyed a highly successful season with the Kennedy track team last year as a junior. He helped the Cougars place second in the 4x200 relay and second in the shuttle hurdle relay at the Class 4A state meet and finished third in the long jump at 22-1 3/4. Kennedy finished fourth in the team standings.
