Gourley's List - Steve Silva, Laura Gerraughty top early season weight throw rankings. Gourley's List 12/17
DyeStat Elite 2001 Indoor First rankings of the season - Most athletes are just getting warmed up, but we have 229 performances from 25 meets that beat the 2001 indoor cutoffs for the unique DyeStat Elite top 100 national rankings.
We already have a 7 foot boy high jumper (Dan Olson NY), a 40 foot girl triple jumper (Shenae Dawkins NY), a 50 foot girl shot putter (Laura Gerraughty NH), a 15-foot boy pole vaulter (Jeff Martzall IN), and an aptly named boy horizontal jumper, I. Perfection Harris NY (leading the US at 22-8 and 45-9).
The greatest performance of the young season is New Yorker Stacey Livingston's 1:30.98 for 600 meters, the second best US prep all time. Livingston also runs on Boys and Girls High's US#1 gils 4x400 team at 3:53.58. Others flirting with 2000 season best levels are Jeff Robbins' Air Time vaulting teammates Molly Lederman and Samantha Shepard of MA, tied at 12-7.5; Erin Donohue NJ 4:58.74 mile; Shane Stroup MD 4:01.53 1500m; and Vikas Gowda MD 58-6.5 SP.

Farewell Cross

The Foot Locker
finals ended the prep cross country season. Now, without
missing a beat, DyeStat and high school athletes switch to indoor track.
DyeStat covered 2 meets on-site last weekend: Pangaea
Invitational at the new Prince Georges County MD facility and the
6th FIT Relays at George Mason U., Fairfax VA on
Saturday. The FIT Relays attracted 50
schools from VA, DC, MD, and DE. We also had electronic
coverage from the New York Armory, which
will host 85 indoor meets this season, of the big Bishop Loughlin Games.
First indoor 2001 DyeStat Elite rankings are coming this week.

Final 2000 XC Leader List :
Final lists of 2,387 performances from 360 meets are headed by the truly elite prep cross country runners. Sara Bei's Foot Locker win was the fastest girls 5k time of the year. Two-time Foot Locker champ Dathan Ritzenhein ended with the five fastest boys 5k times. Three-mile leaders were the Foot Locker runner-ups: Alan Webb and Anita Siraki.
Boys 5k
(1st: Dathan Ritzenhein MI 14:11 -
1,035 marks 16:05 or better)
- The list reflects the 1-2-3 finish of the Foot
Locker finals by the Big 3 runners of the year. Michigan superstar
Dathan Ritzenhein turned in his 8th sub-15:00 performance in winning his
second straight Foot Locker championship. This gave him the
fastest 5 times of the season and 7 of the top 9. Foot Locker
runnerup Alan Webb of VA, had the other two top-9 times and 4 sub-15:00
marks for the season. Ryan Hall of CA, had two sub-15:00
performances, including his third place finish at Orlando.
Girls 5k (1st:
Sara Bei CA 16:56 - 691 marks 19:05 or better) - Hoover Glendale CA sr
Anita Siraki
and Montgomery Santa Rosa CA sr Sara Bei moved to the top of this list
in the California State Meet, with Siraki's 16:59 the only sub-17:00
mark in the nation at that time. In the Foot Locker Finals at
Orlando, the same two came down the stretch side by side to add two more
sub-17:00 times to the list. Bei prevailed this time in 16:56, one
second ahead of Siraki, winning both the Foot Locker championship and
the Leader List #1 for the season.
Boys 3 Mile (1st:
Alan Webb VA 13:57 - 396 marks 15:35 or better)
- Alan Webb's 13:57 for a short, but hilly Virginia
course retains Number One.
Girls
3 Mile (1st: Anita Siraki CA 16:38 - 265 marks
18:35 or better) - Siraki turned in the top 3 times in this
list. Only two other girls ran sub-17:00 -- Julie Allen CA and Christa Benton FL.

Maryland
Gets Great
New Indoor Facility
Maryland
athletes have moved from the dark ages (the old Baltimore Armory) to the
21st century with the opening of the beautiful new Prince Georges County
Sports and Learning Complex, Landover MD. The complex is next to
FedEx Stadium, home of the Washington Redskins, and came from
negotiations between the late Redskins owner Jack Kent Cooke and PG
County officials for local infrastructure. It is called a complex
because the track and soccer arena is only half of the building -- there
is also a championship swimming facility, family swimming center,
fitness center, gymnastics competition facility, and mat sports
facility. The PG Sports Complex (how can we possibly use the
complete title all the time?) will host the Maryland State Meet and the
Nike Indoor Classic this season among many other events. Thursday
night there was Maryland's major season kickoff event, the Pangaea
Invitational, and appreciative athletes turned in some great early
season performances. Pangaea
Invitational results and pictures of the PG County Sports Complex.

The
Harrier
Final 2000 Cross Country National Rankings
Boys:
Mountain View UT
Girls:
Rockford MI, Saratoga NY (tie)
The final rankings confirm
the Number One status that took shape in September after the Great
American Cross Country Festival in Charlotte, the biggest confrontation
of nationally ranked teams in the history of prep cross country.
The Mountain View UT boys won at Charlotte and remained
undefeated the rest of the way through the Utah state meet. The Saratoga
NY girls won at Charlotte as well as the Manhattan Invitational 2
weeks later, conquering a bunch of nationally ranked teams in the
process. They pummeled strong New York state competition the
remainder of the year with the deepest squad in anyone's memory. Rockford
MI girls started the season Number One and did nothing to tarnish
that image in an undefeated season. Because of Michigan state
association rules, however, Rockford could not travel to Charlotte or
other meets where they would have faced highly ranked teams. Thus,
like many times in college football before the BCS scheme, we have
co-champions on the girls side.
The Final Rankings were little changed from the November 19 list, except for two significant moveups -- Peninsula CA girls off their strong California State Meet and the Flathead Kalispell MT boys after their remarkable 1-3-19 showing in the Foot Locker West regional.
Rockford MI and Mountain View UT were noteworthy for having both their boys and girls teams in the top 10.
