Rend Lake distance star Boaz Lalang turns professional
 Rend Lake College track & field head coach Brent McLain has informed Trackshark.com that Boaz Lalang will forgo his collegiate eligibility and turn professional.
Lalang turned in the fastest 800 meter time by any collegian this past season at 1:44.68, including a 9th place finish with his time of 1:45.87 at the Beijing Olympic Games while representing Kenya.
Lalang has signed with adidas and under agent James Templeton, the same agent for Bernard Lagat. He will remain at Rend Lake College until the summer of 2009.
Look for an interview with Lalang to be on Trackshark next week.

I think Boaz had a good analysis of what is good for what he wants to be in future. He has made a choice and he knows why. Respect and congrats goes to his coach for bringing him upto that professional level.
