MUNCIE — The story of Central’s twin sprinters starts in the spring of 1992, eight years before Eliseus and Eliyahu Young were born six minutes apart.
That year, Ernest Young ran at state for the Bearcats in the 400 and 1,600 relay, with a 400 split of 48 seconds — a standard the sophomores will be chasing at Thursday’s Central Sectional and beyond.
And Ernest is quick to remind his sons that they haven’t quite reached his level — yet.
“I told them once they beat me, I’ll listen to you,” he says with a laugh.
