  • VA Colonial Relays - William & Mary -
    a s-l-o-w first day
    by Don Rich

The Colonial Relays timing and seeding system was messed up all day. No results except some field,but nothing on disk. Then,running an hour behind,they ran the high school boys 4x 800 and college 10000 IN THE DARK. Here is a brief report.

In the darkness of a cool Virginia night… Pennsylvania's West Chester Henderson and Archbishop Ryan finished one-two in the 4 x 800 meters. Unbelievably, it was the next to last race of the night at the Colonial Relays on the campus of William & Mary in Williamsburg,. The college men and women ran 10,000's invisible to only those within ten feet.

Coaches and athletes were anything but impressed, as a day of ever-later starts turned into a stampede of high school boys pushing., shoving, and struggling just to see their place in the race. The girls 4 x 800, won by Villa Maria Academy (I think, but it was too dark to tell), had two other PA schools finish second and third, Archbishop Prendergast and Upper Darby, both unofficially in 9:35.

The race started with Rich Anderson of Cardinal O'Hara doing a 360 and nearly being trampled within the first 25 meters of the race. As the pack pulled away, so did the starter, missing the fall, and allowing the race to continue. Among a growing chorus of rather vivid complaints of coaches and athletes, the race continued, with Ryan gaining a 30 meter advantage by the end of the second leg. But somewhere in the darkness, West Chester Henderson caught Ryan at the line, winning in a time to be determined, as the results were not available Friday night.

  • GA: Stephenson Relays  - Benjamin Mays boys 41.6 4x100.

  • Stanford Invitational - A flock of meet records were set, but the expected 3000m clash between Sara Bei and Alejandra Barrientos failed to materialize when Bei called in sick.  Boys: Gamay Guangul 8:36.06 3000m (Fernando Cabada 8:37.42; Brandon Parker 23-6.5; and Rusty Price 58-9.25. Girls: Sani Roseby 54.76; Berkeley HS 46.87 and 3:50.73; and Jill Camarena 46-7.25 SP (Jill doubled in the discus at 158-2).  
    Also of note:  Alejandra Barrientos skipped the mile and won the 3000m in 9:43.22, equal to US#5 last year;  Jenny Aldridge won the mile nicely in 4:56.93; Aisha Margain, US#3 indoors in the 200, dropped down to the 100 and won in 11.87; Ebon Glenn 6-10 HJ.  Details, story, and pictures by Marty Kruger.
