All-State Track: 600 - K Knous


The only other champion from the local area was Franklin’s Kendal Knous, who outkicked Natick’s Laurie Femmel in the final 100 meters to win the 600 in 1:34.04. Knous’ time is the fastest in the state this winter, and fourth-fastest in the country. 
“It feels incredible, I can’t even describe it,” said Knous, who won the event for the third straight year. “Especially because I did so well my sophomore and junior years that I felt like I had something to prove. I wanted to prove that it wasn’t just a mistake. I’ve always relied on my kick and just the adrenaline of the last lap drove me to win.” 
“My goal was to go out fast and try to get Kendal to run my race,” said Femmel, who finished in 1:34.70. “So I’m not disappointed that I came in second. I’m actually thrilled. I give Kendal a lot of credit for passing me at the end.”
