Boys - Girls - Elite performances in blue

Ryan Whiting PA 65-1.25
The nation's dominant shot putter this year pulled out victory on a clutch throw after trailing through five rounds. . Brian Cortina NJ 62-2.5 moved in front in round 4, with Whiting dropping to third. In round 6, Custer SD sr Eric Flores appeared to have won when he reached 62-8. But Whiting calmly stepped into the ring and cranked out the winner -- 65-1.25.
Kamorean Hayes NC 48-11
Harding Charlotte NC soph topples Omaha NE sr Michaela Wallerstedt, who has been US#1 for the past 2 years. North Canton OH sr Ashley Muffet 47-6.25 also got in front of Wallerstedt 46-9.5. Hayes' ritual is to point to where she wants the shot to go. Most of the time, it did. She had no fouls in her six attempts. Her winning mark is a new national sophomore class record.

Boys

Ryan Whiting doesn't get 70 feet, but he gets the gold

by Elliott Denman

Ryan Whiting had highest hopes of joining the 70-foot club.

The Arizona State-bound Central Dauphin High/Harrisburg, Pa. senior led the nation at 68-11 ½ coming in

Fourth at Nike in 2004, he moved up to the gold standard in 2005, but fell short of his ambitions with a 65-1 ¼ winner. He won it on his last throw, coming from fourth place.

It was still the fourth best winning mark in Nike history.

Three others beat 60 - Piermont, NY junior John Hickey (62-8), Skillman, NJ senior Brian Cortina at 62 2 ½, and Custer, South Dakota senior Eric Flores at 61-11 ½.

Top sophomore was Newport News, Va.'s Jaymes Brooks (54-1 ¾); best freshman was Villa Rica, Georgia's Wesley Wright (53-9.)

Soph Kamorean Hayes topples vet Michaela Wallerstedt

by Elliott Denman

Michaela Wallerstadt of Omaha's Burke High came in at the pinnacle of her game, number one in the nation at 47-4 1/2. She'd won indoor and outdoor National crowns in 2004 -reaching 46-10 at Nike indoors - and lost just a single meet.

But sophomore Kamorean Hayes of Charlotte's Harding High, runner-up to Wallerstedt here in 2004, was paying no attention to the Nebraskan's credentials and wound up taking it all with a fourth-round 48-11, fourth best winning mark in Nike history.

Ashley Muffet, a North Canton, Ohio senior, moved into second with her fourth-round 47-6 ¼.

Wallerstadt, not at her best, settled for third at 46-9 ½, fouling two of her final three.

Karen Shump of the Media Striders, Pa. came in intent on attacking the National freshman record of 45-7 ¼ set by Collinus Newsome in 1991, but settled for seventh with a 42-2 heave.
