Highlights
 | Kathy Messner (Jr-Catoctin) came off a sick bed to set a new meet record in high jump at 5-7. That broke Messner's previous 5-6 tie with Tanya Hughes, now on the professional circuit. Messner almost missed the meet entirely when she came down with a mysterious rash and her doctor threatened a one-week home quarantine. |
| Beth Santilli (Jr-River Hill) won four gold medals by sweeping the girls 800 (2:26.2), 1600 (5:13), and 3200 (11:51.7) and anchoring the winning 3200 relay (10:15.1). |
| Derek Dye (Jr-Middletown) polished off an undefeated indoor season to win the boys high jump at 6-4. He was perfect through 6-4 to stave off top-seeded Gary Pinder (Sr-Easton). Dye put the pressure on Pinder at each height by making his first attempt cleanly. Pinder, whose unexpected miss at 5-10 gave Dye the lead, hurt his foot on his second miss at 6-4; he limped back for a courageous third try but missed. Pinder was jumping after finishing second in the 300 and sixth in the 55. |
| The West region coaches were right: the Hagerstown JC track (200 meters rubberized), host of the West regional meet, is much faster than the slippery surfaces at the Baltimore Armory (200 meters, hardwood) and Wicomico Civic Center (176 meters, hardwood). All through the evening, West region athletes saw their times slip and finished behind lower seeded qualifiers from the Armory (Central region) or Wicomico (East). |
| Kate MacFarlane (Sr-Hereford) won the inaugural girls pole vault at 9-6, automatically setting a meet record and also setting a new state indoor record because she was higher than the 4A winner the previous night. |
| Teyarte Carter, precocious freshman from the new Long Reach High School, set a meet record 7.1 in the girls 55. |
| Marcus Lynch (Sr-Western Tech) doubled in the boys 55 (6.61) and 300 (37.0), with the 300 mark only one hundredth of a second off the meet record. |
| Chris Selmer (Sr-Glenelg) doubled in the boys 500 (1:10.4) and 800 (2:05.8). |
