I know for anyone that ever followed TrackShark you would always see at least one post a year asking about Obea Moore and what ever happened to him after high school. And there was always rumor of a come back every year. But now it is official and Obea has made the final 8 in Gatorade's "The Quest For G".

In the video he is the last of the 8 finalist to be selected.
And for you that do not know who Obea Moore is, He set every age group record from age 8-18 and was splitting 44.xx as a 16 year old.

He did very well in all the tests. I feel he got snubbed, probably because they had extreme expectations to him as a decathlete. Great overall package, if you ask me, but the judges must have seen something that wasn't shown on the other episodes.

Re: OBEA MOORE IS BACK
Anyone know what happened to this show? It was really cool, but they haven't put up a new episode or any kind of news in a long time.
