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.

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,
