t-and-f: Bret Schoolmeester Interview

2005-09-15 Thread Ricky Quintana
I think the main thing [to which] I would attribute any sort of success 
I've had is that I've been able to stay healthy and I've been able to stay 
serious. So, durability and attention span are two things that are really 
important in college. A lot of people get sidetracked by a lot of other 
endeavors and there is nothing wrong with that, but this is the kind of 
sport that takes years of commitment to get a lot better.

The image that has always stuck in my mind is Lance Armstrong being caught
and annihilated in a time trial by Miguel Indurain(not sure what year, but
it was prior to his string of wins and his bout with cancer). Similar to
what Armstrong did to Ulrich this year.

I just can't believe that Armstrong could get to his status naturally after
watching that time trial.

I suggest anyone decrying their innocence submit a blood sample that would
be frozen until more accurate testing is available.

I wonder how many takers there would be.

t-and-f: 2006 Edition of Florida Relays Canceled

2005-08-24 Thread Ricky Quintana

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA SPORTS INFORMATION
Wednesday, August 24, 2005
CONTACT: CHRIS RUSHING 352-375-4683 EXT. 6121 OR MIKE VIETTI EXT. 6120

2006 EDITION OF PEPSI FLORIDA RELAYS CANCELED

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Due to ongoing and anticipated construction
surrounding James G. Pressly Stadium at Percy Beard Track, the 2006
Pepsi Florida Relays have been canceled.

The University of Florida is currently in the midst of a multi-phased
expansion and renovation project to McKethan Stadium and the Lemerand
Center, which both adjoin Percy Beard Track. The project, which began
July 7, 2005, involves the expansion of McKethan Stadium, the
construction of new baseball facilities and the renovation of team
locker rooms in the Lemerand Center. The project is slated to be
completed by the end of August in 2006.

We have to do what is best for this program, Florida women's track
and field coach Tom Jones said. We will have a large amount of
construction going on at Lemerand and to put on an event of this
magnitude, it would be difficult with the lack of space available. We
know that this cancellation will leave a large void, especially with the
high school programs that make the trip here every year for this event.


The Pepsi Florida Relays began in 1939 and have been held every year
since with the exception of years during World War II (1942-46). At the
62nd edition of the event in 2005, more than 3,000 athletes from more
than 300 high schools and universities were set to compete before
inclement weather forced the final day to be canceled.

This wasn't an easy decision, Florida men's track and field coach
Mike Holloway said. The coaching staffs and the administration felt
that it was the right decision to make given the circumstances. We're
looking forward to making the Florida Relays bigger and better in
2007.

Typically one of the nation's largest opening meets of the outdoor
track and field season, the 2006 Pepsi Florida Relays were slated to be
held March 23-25.

t-and-f: World Champs Question

2005-08-05 Thread Ricky Quintana

Hey All,

I was looking at the World Champs entries and noticed that Miami Central 
High School(Florida) has three alumni participating in this year's event. 
They are as follows:


Bershawn Jackson US 400mH
Kevin Hicks US 800m
Moise Joseph Haiti 800m

I wanted to know if any high school has produced as many World 
Championship/Olympic championship competitors.


St. Pat's of Kenya comes to mind as producing several world championship 
team members. Any others?


THanks in advance

t-and-f: Lananna Named Associate AD/Director of Oregon Track and Field

2005-07-13 Thread Ricky Quintana





Lananna Named Associate AD/Director of Oregon Track and Field

EUGENE, Ore. – Vin Lananna, who owns a distinguished reputation as one of 
the nation’s top collegiate track and field coaches, has been named 
Associate Athletic Director/Director of Track and Field and Cross Country at 
the University of Oregon, Ducks’ Athletics Director Bill Moos announced at a 
press conference Wednesday at Hayward Field.


“I am thrilled with Vin's decision to join the University of Oregon's 
intercollegiate athletic program,” Moos said.  “His tremendous success in 
coaching, along with his experience in collegiate administration, makes him 
the perfect person to lead Oregon's track and field and cross country 
programs.  During all of our conversations, I could tell that Vin has a 
genuine respect for the Oregon tradition and legacy and shares with me, and 
many others, the vision of what our program is capable of achieving.


In his 11-year career at Stanford that began in July 1992, Lananna quickly 
built the Cardinal into the sport’s top combined men’s and women’s program. 
His cross country and track and field squads claimed four NCAA team titles 
(3 men’s/1 women’s) among their 36 top-10 NCAA finishes (21 men’s/15 
women’s), and Stanford athletes won 22 NCAA track and field individual 
titles. At the Pacific-10 Conference level, the Cardinal men and women 
racked up 17 team titles (8 men’s/9 women’s) and 45 individual crowns (25 
men’s/20 women’s).


In return for Stanford’s excellence, he was a multiple honoree as NCAA Cross 
Country Coach of the Year (1986, ‘96, ’97, 2002), NCAA West Region Cross 
Country Coach of the Year (1995, ’96, ’97, ’98, ’99, 2002), Pacific-10 
Conference Cross Country Coach of the Year (1994, ’95, ’96, ’98, ’99, 2001, 
’02) and Pac-10 Track and Field Coach of the Year (2000, ’01).


He has served as director of athletics and physical education at Oberlin 
College (Ohio) since July 2003.


“After listening to the vision that Bill has about what the American track 
and field capital can be and should be, there’s no other place better to do 
it than Eugene,” Lananna said. “There’s an amazing love of the sport in this 
community that you can’t find anywhere else. I’m excited about extending the 
program’s tradition of excellence at the national level year-in and year-out 
so it spills over to the national arena.”


Prior to his tenure at Stanford, Lananna was tabbed as track and field head 
coach at Dartmouth College in 1980 and was later promoted to assistant 
athletic director for track and field and cross country in 1985.


At the NCAA level, his Dartmouth teams posted six top-20 cross country 
finishes – including runner-up efforts in 1986 and ’87 – to go along with 
two top-20 women’s placings, and more than 25 combined All-America honors in 
track and field and cross country. His men’s squads also captured eight 
consecutive Heptagonal League cross country titles (1984-91) and one 
Heptagonal League track and field crown (1988), and his women’s squad 
claimed four Heptagonal track and field runner-up finishes in cross country 
and two in track and field (1988, ’89). In return for their success at the 
Hanover, N.H. institution, he was selected as NCAA Cross Country Coach of 
the Year (1986), District Cross Country Coach of the Year (1983-87, 89, ’90) 
and District Track and Field Coach of the Year (1985, ’87, ’88, ’91).


At the U.S. and international levels, he was appointed men’s assistant coach 
for the 2004 Olympic Games and 1999 World Championships, as well as junior 
coach for the 1990 and 1996 World Cross Country Championships.


His Stanford pupils have also shined at the national and international 
levels – a list that includes 2000 Olympians Brad Hauser (5,000), Gabe 
Jennings (1,500) and Michael Stember (1,500), 1999 and 2003 World 
Championships qualifiers Hauser (10,000) and Lauren Fleshman (5,000), and 
Dartmouth graduate and two-time Olympic marathoner Bob Kempanien (1996, 
’00).


He began his coaching career as cross country head coach at C.W. Post 
College in Greenvale, N.Y.,  in the fall of 1975 after graduating from the 
institution with a bachelor of arts degree in history and psychology in the 
spring. As a track and field athlete from 1971-75, he ran cross country and 
track and was captain of the 1974 harrier team that finished fourth in the 
NCAA Division II Championships. He added a master’s of science degree in 
education from Long Island University in 1989.


Lananna (6-17-53) and his wife Elizabeth have two sons – Brian (21) and 
Scott (19).

Andonova signs with Miami
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/sfl-localprepsigning16jun16,0,3173669.story
By Sharon Robb
STAFF WRITER
Posted June 16 2005


CORAL SPRINGS  Viktoria Andonova, one of the nation's best jumpers, signed 
with Miami.


Ranked No. 1 in the nation for most of last year and earlier this season in 
the high jump, the Coral Springs grad swept district and region titles this 
season despite a knee injury that forced her out of her third and final 
state meet.


Andonova won four state titles her sophomore and junior years -- two in the 
high jump and two in the triple jump -- and broke the state record (6-0) 
last year. She set school records in the high, triple and long jumps. Her 
personal best in the high jump is 6-1, which already ranks among the 
nation's top college jumpers.


The honors student was recruited by most of the top track programs, 
including UCLA and Florida.


She has already jumped heights that are scoring at the national meets, 
Coral Springs track coach Brantley Barr said. She can step right in there 
and compete at the national level for them. It's nice she stayed close to 
home so we can go down and watch her. I will not be surprised if she is an 
NCAA champion and at the next level before she leaves UM.


Her mother and coach, Lyudmila, is a former world-record holder and Olympian 
from Bulgaria. She is expected to help coach the jumpers at UM. The family 
moved from Bulgaria five years ago. Andonova is working on her U.S. 
citizenship so she can compete for the United States.

the most of any NCAA Division I track program. 
The Razorbacks’ outstanding performances racked up 60 points for the 
first-place team trophy, while Southeastern Conference opponents Florida and 
LSU finished second (49) and third (36), respectively.  BYU and Florida 
State rounded out the top five and tied with 34 points each. 
“It’s nice to have No. 41,” Arkansas head coach John McDonnell said.  
“Florida gave us a great meet and really pushed us with everything they 
had.  I would rank this meet as a close second to the NCAA indoor meet 
(earlier this year).  We were so well-balanced and everyone gave a 100 
percent, but that’s what I’ve come to expect.  We don’t like to lose.  It’s 
a tradition that’s been handed down by teams from the past.  I think this 
team is one of the great ones and people will compare them to the squads 
from 1984-85 and 1994-95.” 
The convincing victory came after the 200-meter dash when UA’s trio of 
fantastic sprinters earned 17 points with a 1-3-8 finish and clinched the 
meet.  Sophomore Wallace Spearmon Jr., led the crew as he successfully 
defended his 200-meter title and reclaimed the school record from senior 
Tyson Gay with a new world-leading time of 19.91.  The winning time is 
seventh on the all-time collegiate list and is the third-fastest ever run at 
an NCAA meet. 
“I knew I had to get out, so once I came around that turn I knew I had it,” 
Spearmon said.  “I had to step up when it counted and help the team.  On the 
straight-away I looked over and saw Tyson and (Xavier) Carter, so I knew I 
was in a good spot.  I couldn’t have asked for a better ending.  It’s like a 
Disney movie.”
“It was awesome and it sealed the meet,” Brauman exclaimed.  “Wallace has 
been banged up for the past month and he was able to put a good one together 
in the finals of the NCAA Championships.”
Spearmon is now a four-time NCAA champion and seven-time All-American.  
There is little doubt that the Fayetteville, Ark., native will leave an 
indelible mark on the University of Arkansas as he announced after his 
performance that he would more than likely turn professional based on the 
advice of his coaches, McDonnell and Brauman.
Gay had recorded the previous school record on Thursday night when he put up 
a 19.93 in the semifinals, besting Spearmon’s 19.97 from April.  During 
Saturday night’s final he finished third with a time of 20.16, while LSU’s 
Xavier Carter took second place (20.08). 
“I wasn’t shocked at all that Wallace won,” Gay said.  “He has a tendency to 
put it together when it counts.  I’m happy for him.”
Senior Omar Brown was the next Hog to finish when he came in eighth.  Brown 
turned in a time of 22.38 after he cramped up towards the end of the race. 
All three runners earned All-America honors by virtue of their finishes in 
their final races in an Arkansas jersey.  Gay closed his career as a 
two-time NCAA champion and seven-time All-American, while Omar will go away 
as a member of the national championship relay team and a four-time 
All-American. 
 “That was terrific,” McDonnell said.  “I’ll remember those guys for a long 
time. They are great athletes and great friends.” 
Senior Terry Gatson picked up Arkansas’ first two points of the day when he 
finished in seventh place in the 400-meter dash with a clocking of 45.68.  
It was Gatson’s fourth-career All-American honor.  In the semis he 
registered the second-fastest overall time and a career-best clocking of 
44.93 and was hoping to carry that performance over to the finals, but it 
was Baylor’s Darold Williamson who took the tape with a time of 44.51. 
The 1,500 meters was next on the schedule and sophomore Adam Perkins was 
coming off a five-second personal-best time of 3:39.82 from the prelims on 
Thursday.  The Liberty, Mo., native put up a strong performance down the 
final stretch and passed four runners to finish in fourth place with another 
career-best time of 3:38.54.  More importantly, he crossed the line one 
place ahead of Florida’s Shane Stroup (3:38.57), while the winning time of 
3:37.13 was turned in by Texas freshman Leonel Manzano.  Perkins’ time 
finally placed him in UA’s all-time outdoor top list at ninth, slightly 
ahead of former Razorback great Alistair Cragg (3:39.24).
“I went out hard and I felt it,” Perkins said.  “I saw the guys from Florida 
(Shane Stroup) and Florida State (Tom Lancashire) and knew I had to finish 
ahead of them, so I gave it one last lean at the end.  I wanted to win, but 
the way the race was run it didn’t work out.”
Perkins’ five points gave UA a total of 39, while Florida

2005-05-07 Thread Ricky Quintana
I haven't forgotten.
Dodler is on all-time list that John Sullivan posted once and to which I 
have kept updating. Not that Sully hasn't. He has way more info than I and 
doesn't need any help.
Dodler also ran a fast mile on that day too. 4:54 and some change which 
converts to 4:53.1 which puts her at #9.
Parrish stands  #6 with her 4:49.19 from NIN this past March and also has a 
superior 3200m/2mile time from Arcadia 10:24.01/10:27.65.
She also has one year remaining and based on her training, she should be 
dipping below those times in upcoming post season meets.
Modern day records and old records tends to get confusing at times.

t-and-f: NCAA reports from school SID's

2005-03-12 Thread Ricky Quintana
TN Women
The day started in disappointing fashion, though, as senior Nicole Cook, the 
meet favorite and defending NCAA champion, struggled in the 800-meter 
prelims and was unable to advance to the finals. The Petersburg, Va., 
native, who strained her right hamstring in practice on Sunday and did not 
run all week in hopes of being well enough to compete, finished last of 
eight runners in heat two and wound up 12th overall in 2:08.25.
Cook, who two weeks ago at the Southeastern Conference meet set the 
collegiate record in the 800m at 2:00.75 on this very track, went out 
conservatively before rallying on the final lap to briefly take the lead. As 
she made the final turn toward the finish line, however, the rest of the 
pack closed in and overtook her 12 meters from the tape as she was unable to 
find the speed and power necessary to fend them off. Aneita Denton of 
Arkansas, whom Cook defeated for the SEC title, advances to the finals with 
the fastest qualifying time at 2:04.70.
“It is amazing that she ran at all today,” Clark said of his 10-time 
All-American. “She didn’t run a step all week and was just a warrior the 
whole way out there today. She did the best she could; she just couldn’t 
open up when she wanted.
“It was a long shot. She warmed up and only did two strides. She said she 
wanted to give it a shot, and she almost pulled it off. Obviously, it hurts, 
because it is possibly 10 points, but we’re going to put our heads down and 
run until the meet is over.”

LSU Men
The LSU men missed securing any points in the first day of action after an
unfortunate disqualification of freshman Xavier Carter in the 200 meters.
Carter clocked 20.65 to finish seventh in the finals, but was later
disqualified for a lane violation.

Arkansas Men
The DMR immediately followed the 200-meter dash. The Arkansas team was 
comprised of sophomore Adam Perkins, senior Terry Gatson, junior Harun Iman 
and junior Said Ahmed. The Hogs ran a close race with UCLA and Stanford for 
a majority of the event.
Perkins led from the get go with a split of 2:55, but handed off to Gatson 
in second place. Gatson held steady with the leading Stanford runner as he 
passed the baton to Iman in a time of 46.8. Iman also maintained the second 
place position with a split of 1:50. Ahmed handled anchor duties and 
continued to stay of the shoulder of the UCLA competitor. In the final lap 
the finish came down to defending NCAA champion Michigan and Arkansas. UM’s 
Nate Brannen gained ground on Ahmed coming off the last turn. It was a 
desperate dive by Ahmed at the tape that gave Arkansas the victory with a 
time of 9:30.79, while the Wolverines were very close behind with a 9:30.82.
The Razorbacks didn’t have long to celebrate after they learned a protest 
regarding the physical finish had been filed by a meet referee. Arkansas put 
in an appeal, but it was overturned by the NCAA Track and Field Committee. 
The 10 points Arkansas thought it had earned with the win were taken away 
and Michigan was given the national crown.
“The University of Arkansas Distance Medley Relay team was disqualified by 
the referee,” Donna Thomas (Chair of NCAA Division I Men’s and Women’s Track 
and Field Committee) said. “The referee’s interpretation of the rule (Rule 
5-5-3b) was that the young man from Arkansas impeded the progress of the 
runner from Michigan. Arkansas appealed the ruling and the ruling was 
upheld. No video tape was used. According to NCAA rules, the use of video is 
not allowed. As it stands, Michigan is the winner of the Men’s Distance 
Medley Relay.”
Earlier in the evening Arkansas looked to score big in the 5,000 meters, but 
fell slightly short of expectations when the Hogs were only able to score 
five points. Junior Josphat Boit and sophomore Peter Kosgei finished sixth 
and seventh, respectively. Boit ran a season-best time of 13:47.99, while 
Kosgei turned in a 13:48.26, allowing the Kenyan duo to pick up their 
first-career indoor track All-America honors.
In the prelims of the 800 meters senior All-American James Hatch advanced to 
the finals by virtue of his second-place finish. Hatch staged a smart race 
and recorded a time of 1:49.27, placing him seventh overall. Before the DMR 
Ahmed turned in the fastest qualifying time in the prelims of the mile as he 
held off Michigan’s Nick Willis (4:03.90) to take the tape with a time of 
4:03.60.
In the 400 meters Gatson registered a new career-best time of 46.23 as he 
took the tape in the fourth and final heat. His excellent time placed him 
second overall and pushed him through to the finals. Gatson’s performance 
also placed him second on UA’s all-time indoor top 10 list.
Unfortunately, the 60-meter dash was missing junior Tyson Gay. The NCAA 
100-meter dash champion was scratched from the event after it was determined 
that he was not 100 percent recovered from an injured right hamstring.

FL Men and Women
I thought we did a pretty good job today, Florida men's coach Mike

t-and-f: NIKE Indoor National High School Track and Field Champs Preview

2005-03-10 Thread Ricky Quintana
NIN Girls Preview
by Ricky Quintana
Landover, MD- This year’s indoor championships may have a new name, but 
expect the same high level of competition to torch the track at the Prince 
George County’s Sports and Learning Complex.
Events begin on Saturday, March 12 and finish on Sunday, March 13.
Comcast CN8 Sports will have 2-hours of coverage on March 20 at 9 pm and on 
March 26 at 3 pm. People outside the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions can 
see the show on the Internet at www.cn8.tv.
Up to date results, stories, quotes and picutres can be found at 
http://nikeindoor.nationalscholastic.org/index.php

Sprints
60 meter dash
None of this year’s competitors made it past the first round in last year’s 
star studded final. This year’s group is tightly packed and any one of four 
could win the title.
US # 3 55m ranked Sarah Matthews (Colorado Flyers, Longmont, CO) figures to 
be the top seed by a scant margin. Hot on her heels should be USATF JO YW 
100m 5th placer
Tenille Wilson (Foley HS, Summerdale, AL) who comes in ranked US # 4 in the 
60m. Francena McCorory (Bethel TC, Hampton, VA), US #5 in the 55m, could 
also be vying for  a top spot on the podium. Frosh Clarenchell Tate (Simon 
Gratz, Philadelphia, PA), ranked US #5 in the 60m, has a shot at the frosh 
record of 7.50 set in 1999 by Zenobia Reed (Lamar, Houston, TX). She has run 
a converted 60m best of 7.53 this season.

200m dash
Sophomore Bianca Knight ( Ridgeland TC, Ridgeland, MS) comes in as the heavy 
favorite and has the accolades of a veteran. After setting a blazing best of 
23.06 last summer in winning the USATF JO IG 200m championship, T F news # 
3 ranked 200m runner recorded an indoor best of 23.70A at the Simplot Games 
on February 19. That was good enough for 11th fastest runner of All-Time. 
Pretty good for someone who has only two years of experience undercover.
Before the season, she said that Simplot and NIN were the two races she was 
pointing towards this season, so expect a sizzling performance from her in 
Landover.
Her biggest threats will come from US # 4 Krista Simkins (Wissahickon TC, 
Ambler, PA), US #5 Clarenchal Tate (Simon Gratz, Phildelphia, PA) and fellow 
soph and US # 6, Sa’de Williams ( Rancho Cucamonga, Alta Loma, CA).
The meet record of 23.78 set in 2001 by Erica Whipple (Palm Beach Lakes, 
West Palm Beach, FL) may be in jeopardy. Ebony Collins’ (Wilson, Long Beach, 
CA) frosh record of 24.47 could fall to Tate who has a best of 24.26 this 
season.

400m dash
Bianca Knight’s (Ridgeland TC, Ridgeland, MS) efforts in the 400m last 
outdoor season earned her T  F News # 3 ranking. Indoors, she has yet to 
find her groove, but with a personal best of 52.96 set last summer, she  
will toe the line as the favorite.
Sa’de Williams ( Rancho Cucamonga, Alta Loma, CA) finished 7th in the highly 
competitive CA State meet and should pose a threat to Knight’s sprint sweep 
attempt.
Andria Smallwood (Ballou HS, Washington, DC) will be a strong contender 
also.

Last June, Sarah Bowman (Fauquier, Warrenton, VA) recorded the fastest time 
since 1996 in winning 800 meter run at the adidas Outdoor Championships in 
Raleigh, NC. Her 2:04.94 outdistanced the next best outdoor performance by 
more than two seconds and earned her T  F News’ #1 ranked 800m runner,
After a tepid start to this indoor season, she set the high school track 
world on it’s ear by crushing Arianna Lambie’s ( Bromfield School, Harvard, 
Ma) US 1k record by whopping two seconds with her 2:43.40 at the Virginia 
State meet. Reports had her coming through the 800m in 2:08.2, the third 
fastest 800m time in the nation. She enters as the odds on favorite.
At NIN, she will be challenged by surprising junior Katie Doswell( St. 
Catherine’s, Richmond, VA). At the same adidas Outdoor Championship meet 
where Bowman scorched the field, Doswell recorded a modest 2:13.4 relay 
split in the 4 x800m relay for her 17th place St. Catherine’s team. After a 
solid fall in cross country, Doswell has seen an alarming improvement 
recording bests of 2:08.86(US # 5) in the 800m and 2:47.21 (US #2). She will 
definitely be in the hunt.
Adding spice to the field, US # 4 Geena Gall (Detroit Cheetahs TC, Flint MI) 
and 1k US #5 performer Brittany Sheffey (Bellport TC, Bay Shore, NY) have 
PR’s of under 2:09.01.
With 90 minutes between the mile and 800m, Doswell and Bowman will have 
little time to rest.
The meet record of 2:09.52 set by Katya Kostetskaya (Jonesboro, AR) in 2003 
could be broken if not smashed by any of the top four.
The junior record of 2:06.60 by Joetta Clark (Columbia, Maplewood, NJ) and 
the senior record of 2:04.90 set by Tamieka Grizzle (George Washington, NYC) 
could also go.

1 mile
Nicole Blood(Kinetic RC, Ganesvoort, NY) sped to the fastest sophomore mile 
time ever undercover, 4:46.13, in finishing second to Katelyn 
Kaltenbach’s(Smoky Hill TC, Aurora, CO) meet record of 4:45.32 last

t-and-f: Ken Cormier- Lydiard influence propels him to Foot Locker National Title

2005-01-10 Thread Ricky Quintana
By Ricky Quintana
Interviewed on December 17, 2004
It seemed apropos that in the same weekend of Arthur Lydiard’s death,
Ken Cormier of Douglas, AZ(population, 14,000) would be the one in the
hunt for the title in the final 200 meters at the Foot Locker Cross
Country Championships in San Diego, CA on Dec. 11. Cormier, the west region 
champion,
had taken a page from the Lydiard method putting together three
successive 100+ miles per week during the summer and maintaining high 
mileage
throughout the cross country season.
Using a potent finish, Cormier powered past a tiring Andrew Bumbalough,
the south champion, to win the race in 15:22; just two seconds up on
Bumbalough. For the second year, an unheralded newcomer had burst on to
the high school distance running scene in a thrilling win.
Cormier’s path to success reads like a made for TV movie. After
finishing a dismal 79th place finish at the West Regional, 1:26 behind the
race winner, last year, Cormier vowed to win the region and the national
title this year.  Training in the hills around his isolated Mexican
border town, the home schooled Cormier ran night in day during the summer
reaching a peak of hitting a peak of 120 miles per week late in the
summer.
Unchallenged in Arizona during the cross country regular season,
Cormier won the state championship, improving by over one minute over his
junior time. He, then made due on his pledge, winning the West Region on
the hilly and challenging Mt. Sac course and the national title in San
Diego, CA.

RQ: After finishing 79th last year at the west regional, how do you
feel after reaching your goal of winning Foot Locker Cross Country
Nationals?
Cormier: It's kind of weird. It's been like a week. It's kind of weird
to look back and say ' Wow, I did that. I won the national
championship.' It feels great.
I've been on cloud nine all week. I really haven't done that much. I've
been happy all the time no matter what.
RQ: When you were coming back that last 200 or so and you were behind
Andrew Bumbalough, what were you thinking?
Cormier: When I started my kick, 200 meters out, I felt that I was
going to win it. I felt so strong and I was feeling so fast. I just thought
I was going
to win that final 200 meters. I just felt I could out kick him. It was
kind of weird. When you start to run really fast in competition, you
just kind
of black out for a while. It started to come to me and I was like '
Wow, I won.' What was going through my mind was ' I could do this. It's
just right there.'
RQ: When you were coming down the final 200m, you kind of drifted over.
Do you and Andrew collide at all?
Cormier: On no. I really felt I was in front of him. You have to veer
off the right to get to the finish line. I really didn't
feel like running a whole lot of distance. I felt like I was ahead of
him. I saw the tape and I was. I moved to the inside because I knew
it was the shortest distance. I had made that decision the day before
when I was looking at the course. It would almost be a straight line to
the finish.
RQ: It seems that you didn't have that much competition during the
course of the year.
Cormier: No, I didn't here in Arizona. I think my closest race was like
22 seconds. In a
way that was good. It really helped me to build up my confidence. I
would have liked to have run
some faster races in my season. I probably would have run faster at
nationals. It would have been
just a better run. But you know, it's just something you have to live
with.
RQ: What were you thoughts going into the West regional not having
raced against some of these kids?
Cormier: Going into the West regional, I knew I could qualify. That was
my only goal.
That was undoubtedly the best I ever felt during a race. Ever. When we
hit two miles, I felt like
we were jogging. I was so controlled. I just felt so good.
So that race really really helped my confidence for nationals.
RQ: What were your PR's in track?
Cormier: 9:20 and 4:18.
RQ: Were those at altitude?
Cormier:  No, those were actually at 1,000 feet. I was sick when I ran
those though. I was sick at
my state meet. Actually, my 4:18 came two weeks into the track season.
And then at state, I got really
sick and I had to drop all my races except the 3200m. I ran 9:20.
RQ: I guess there were no post season races for you.
Cormier: No, no post season races.
RQ: What were your cross country PR's last year?
Cormier: I think I ran 16:18 on basically the same state course. This
year, I ran 15:10. I think
I took off about a minute for 5k from last year.
RQ: Did you have an opportunity to see last year's race?
Cormier: Friday afternoon, me and a bunch of other guys watched the
tapes from 2000 to last year.
RQ: Did you have any flashback's to last year's race?
Cormier: Yeah, it was kind of like that. Withrow and me weren't
expected to win so it was kind of the same thing again.
RQ: You're home schooled and compete for your high school, is that
correct?
Cormier: Yes, that correct. Arizona state law says

t-and-f: Coaches of Foot Locker Qualifiers

2004-11-30 Thread Ricky Quintana
Saturday at the South Regional Championships at McAlpine Park in Charlotte, 
NC, Kelly Parrish of Vanguard, Ocala, FL finished 8th to qualify for the 
Foot Locker Cross Country Nationals.
In 2002, Vanguard's Steven Hassen also qualified for nationals finishing 4th 
at the south regional.
They were both coached by James Travieso.
My question is, other than Greg Weich(sp?) of Smoky Hill,Aurora, CO who else 
has coached a boy and girl qualifer for the Foot Locker/Kinney Cross Country 
Nationals?
Any help would be appreciated.

t-and-f: George Kersh Interview

2004-06-27 Thread Ricky Quintana
In 1987, George Kersh dominated the high school 800m. The lanky senior from 
Pearl, MS broke the national high school record twice finally lowering the 
800m to a then best of 1:46.58. His 0.73 second lowering of the record is 
the largest margin listed in Jack Shepard’s 2004 high school track annual 
that dates back to 1963.  Kersh still owns 4 of the top ten 800m All-Time 
performances (his slowest being 1:47.84) from that season.
From 1987 to 1994, he earned 7 US top ten 800m rankings; his highest ranking 
being 2nd in 1990 in 1991.
His best of 1:44.00 set on June 24,1992 in New Orleans at the Olympic trials 
ranks him 11th among Americans All-Time. In that race, Kersh finished a 
heartbreaking 4th behind Johnny Gray (1:42.80), Mark Everett (1:43.67) and 
Jose Parilla(1:43.97) to just miss a trip to Barcelona, Spain.
Now 35 (Almost 36. July 3, 1968 birthdate), Kersh  is an assistant coach at 
his alma mater, Pearl, MS. Kersh’s former coach, Woody Barnett, has amassed 
a dynasty there, accumulating a staggering 5 state titles and going 
undefeated against Mississippi competition since 1999. The team also boasts 
100 members, grades 7-12, including Kersh’s son, a seventh grader last year.
He spoke during one of the rain delays at the Golden South Classic in 
Orlando, June 5. One of his track stars, Raymond Newell won the high jump 
there with a clearance of 6-08. Kersh still holds the Golden South mile 
record of 4:08.91 set in 1987.

RQ: What have you been up to all these years?
Kersh: Nothing much. Doing a little coaching. Doing a little running. 
Nothing major. Just running with my cross country and a few of my track 
kids. That’s about it.

RQ: You ended up back in your hometown, Pearl, MS.
Kersh: Oh yeah. Yeah. Back home. I have a family. I’ve been married for 
several years. I have a twelve year old son and an eight year old daughter. 
I’m enjoying being a father and my family. I’m slowly getting them involved 
with running. That’s what I’ve been doing.

RQ: Any potential in your kids?
Kersh: Maybe. You never know. My son is a jack of all trades. He can pretty 
much do anything. He had a pretty successful cross country season as a 
seventh grader. He did a pretty good job for his first time running. 
Hopefully, my girl will do some running in the near future. Slowly, trying 
to get them there. Not a rush. I’m letting them enjoy themselves also.

RQ: What kind of times did your son run last season?
Kersh: He ran 19:08 for 5k. Not bad for a seventh grader. We were pleased 
with it. He was always one of the top guys on the junior varsity. He was 
always there. He gets after it and works hard so you never know. You just 
never know.  I’m just going to work with him every year and hopefully, he’ll 
become a good runner.

RQ: What do you try and tell these younger kids?
Kersh: Oh man…. I tell you what, focus. Stay focused and dedicate yourself 
to the sport. If you want to be successful, you got to dedicate yourself. 
There’s going to be some ups and downs and you have to take the good with 
the bad. That’s basically it.
You have to stay strong. You may not have a successful year the first year, 
but if you hang with it, you’re going to have some good races. Those good 
races are going to outweigh the bad by far. So just hang in there, knowing 
you are going to do well.

RQ: You must be a household name in Pearl. Do these kids know who you are?
Kersh: Yeah, they do. They do (laughing). We show them a few tapes and these 
kids, they don’t remember. Most weren’t even born when I was running. We’ll 
go and show them some tapes when I was running. Their eyes will pop. They’re 
shocked. I get out there and run with them and they say, “Ok, he can still 
run.”

RQ: What got you back to Pearl?
Kersh: I was out in Santa Monica and I just missed home. I went back and 
trained a little bit. I ran for a couple of more years.
My coach got me out there to help the Pearl team a little bit. I got the 
hang of it and started to loving it. I got on and have been on it ever 
since. It’s been wonderful to get out there and run with the kids and see 
them develop year after year and get faster and faster. Just try and 
motivate them and teach them a few things.
As a matter of fact, for cross country next year, just in the junior high 
alone, we have 80 to 90 signed up. We had a lot of runners last year and we 
only lost about 5 guys.
Keep them motivated and keep it fun. Do things for them and hopefully keep 
building.
We won the state cross country meet this year, both boys and girls and also 
won the boy’s track. We had an outstanding track and cross country season 
this year.

RQ: As an African American male, do you carry a different perspective into 
cross country and distance running that you can share with the kids?
Kersh: With the distance runners, you don’t get many blacks out. We do get a 
few of them out. Especially junior high kids. We’ll slowly get them out. 
They see that it’s for everybody. Anybody can do it, if

t-and-f: Katelyn Kaltenbach Aiming for Great Times this Weekend at AOC

2004-06-15 Thread Ricky Quintana
Kaltenbach Aiming for Great Times this Weekend
by Ricky Quintana
June 14, 2004
This past weekend at the Golden West Invitational in Sacramento, CA, Katelyn 
Kaltenbach (Smoky Hill, Aurora, CO.), was handed her first defeat in 51 
weeks by Texas state mile champion Erin Bedell(Plano West, TX). Her time of 
4:45.97 for the mile was her outdoor best and came despite slowing the final 
10 meters because of leg cramps.
Kaltenbach has been nearly unbeatable this season posting wins over the best 
high schoolers at the 2003 Foot Locker Cross Country Championships, the NIKE 
Indoor Championships mile (meet record time of 4:45.32), and Arcadia 
Invitational. She also won her first state cross country championship and 
four state track titles at the Colorado State championships.
She will be competing in the two-mile and mile at the Adidas Outdoor 
Championships in Raleigh, N.C. this weeeknd. The Adidas Outdoor Championship 
serve as the unofficial national high school championships and will feature 
one of the strongest fields in the history of girls distance running.
The two mile will be contested on Friday evening and the mile on Saturday 
afternoon.
Kaltenbach spoke Monday night on her chances in each of the two events, her 
training and her loss this past weekend.

RQ: How did Golden West go for you?
Kaltenbach: It was OK. I got overheated though. It wasn’t too good. I felt 
really strong throughout the race. My breathing felt great. Then, when I 
went at 200 meters and I started closing on Erin [Bedell]. Then, with 100 
meters left, my hamstrings cramped. Actually, I pretty much walked the last 
ten meters or so. I figured out what happened afterwards. I wasn’t hydrated. 
Normally when I run mile races in Colorado, I don’t need to hydrate much, 
but with the intense heat, I need to learn to hydrate more. It was a good 
experience to not run well and still run 4:45. It just shows that I’m on the 
right track.

RQ: It’s been a long time since you lost. Is that something that you think 
about?
Kaltenbach: Yes. I always thought it was cool to keep winning, but I knew I 
was going to lose sometime. My coach figured it’s been 51 weeks since I lost 
[Last loss was at last year’s AOC where she placed 4th]. Hopefully, I’ll 
have another 51 week streak.

RQ: It’s been a long time since you’ve raced.
Kaltenbach: Yes, it has. It’s been about three to four weeks. I’ll probably 
be ready for this weekend.

RQ: What is going to be your focus for this weekend?
Kaltenbach: I know both fields are really good. In the two mile, I just want 
to go out and try to win.
In the mile, I’m just hoping to get a really good time. I’ll see how I feel 
after the two mile to see how I race. See how my legs feel after the two 
mile.

RQ: You’ve committed to full time running this year. How has that gone?
Kaltenbach: I love it. It’s obviously helped a lot. I’ve run a lot better 
times than I would have. I won four events at states which is exciting. So 
it’s going great. I love it and I’m used to it now.

RQ: Do you still get inklings to play soccer?
Kaltenbach: Not really anymore. I’m over soccer.
RQ: How has the season gone for you? Are you happy with it?
Kaltenbach: I’m really happy. It’s been a really good season. I got my 800m 
time down to 2:09 so that was exciting. I won the four state titles which 
was a big goal. I got some school records that I was going for. It’s been 
great.

RQ: So, you got one of your sister’s[Megan Kaltenbach who is now a freshman 
at North Carolina] school records?
Kaltenbach: Yeah, I got her 800m school record which I was going for because 
at the beginning of the season, I was running 2:12. I hadn’t really run an 
800m fresh. I got to [run fresh] at my region race and I ended up running 
2:09.01.

RQ: What kind of workouts have you been doing?  You’ve run two miles and 
miles. That’s a pretty good range.
Kaltenbach: I know. That’s been kind of crazy. I wasn’t really planning on 
running a 5k at the Penn Relays. I got the opportunity so I kind of just did 
it. I’ve just been doing two speed workouts a week. One has been longer 
intervals and the other one has been shorter, like 300’s and 200’s just to 
keep my speed up.  Then, once every other week, I’ll do a long run.

RQ: So, what kind of mileage are you putting in?
Kaltenbach: The thing is, I don’t know the exact mileage because I run 
minutes, not miles. My coach does everything. Probably like 35 miles per 
week. It’s going down because it’s the end of the season.

RQ: What kind of times do you run in the workouts?
Kaltenbach: Like, last week, I was doing 600’s. I was going through the 
quarter in like 63. I was running 1:36’s. And then I do 200’s. I do two sets 
of four. My first set, I’ll average 30 and then the following set I’ll 
average 28. Normally, throughout the workout, I get faster.

RQ: Have you eve done an all out 200 or 400?
Kaltenbach: No, I really haven’t this year. Next year, I’m going to do some 
open quarters because in that practice

Adidas Outdoor Championships
By Ricky Quintana
Raleigh, NC- The girls’ sprints will provide plenty of entertainment as 
athletes vie for the national high school championship title at the adidas 
Outdoor Championships at Paul Derr Track on the North Carolina State 
University campus June 18 and 19th.
Here’s an event by event preview of each of the sprint races.

100m Dash
“ Alex the Great” and “Speedy” will be the headliners for what promises to 
be a meet record-threatening race. Three of the top four nationally ranked 
100m sprinters will be on hand to earn the coveted national championship 
ring given to all the adidas Outdoor Champions.
World Junior 400m record holder, Texas and Olympic team favorite, Sanya 
Richards(St. Thomas Aquinas, Ft. Lauderdale, FL)  set the record of 11.39 in 
2002.

Here’s a listing of the top competitors.
Alexandria Anderson( Morgan Park, Chicago, IL) got her moniker after 
splendid quadruple performance at the Illinois Class 2A state championships. 
There she recorded wins in the in the 100m, 11.41, a 24.11 in the 200m, a 
53.13 in the 400m, and finished runner-up in the long jump, 19 feet 11 
inches. In all, the junior has collected 9 state championships and two 
runner-ups. She will be focusing on just two events here, the 100m and the 
200m. She has bests of 11.14 and 23.74 in those two events.
Ranking: US#3tie

Shalonda Solomon (Poly, Long Beach, CA) will be looking for that elusive 
individual title that escaped her at the California state championships last 
weekend. Hard sprinting “Speedy” has a best of 11.41 this season and a best 
of 11.35. She will have no relay chores at the AOC which should improve her 
prospects drastically. This will also be the first appearance at AOC for the 
coast hopping Solomon.
College Choice: University of South Carolina
Ranking: US #3 tie

Cleo Tyson(Huntsville, TX) has finished second in each of her two past 
championship races. She was runner-up at the TX 5A state meet to Krystin 
Lacy(Skyline, Dallas, TX) and runner-up to national leading Ashley Owens( 
Liberty, Colorado Springs, CO) at the Great Southwest Championships in 
Albuquerque, NM June 5. The University of Tennessee signee will try and 
reverse that trend at AOC.
Ranking: US #5
2003 AOC Finish: 4th

Courtney Champion( Collins Hill, Suwanee, GA) won her fourth straight 
championship in the 200m at the GA State championships. This despite a 
hamstring and groin injuries that plagued her in the early part of the 
season. She also won the 100m in a quick 11.53. In all, she collected 6 
individual titles in her career and just missed completing the 100m/200m 4 
time double sweep after placing 2nd in the 100m her freshman and sophomore 
years.
College Choice: University of Tennessee

Girls 200m
Almost an identical line-up as the 100m, but with some added spice. The only 
missing entrant from last year’s final is the winner, Shana Cox. The meet 
record is 23.03, again held by Sanya Richards. This surely will be 
threatened as three of the top five nationally ranked runners are entered.

Shalonda Solomon( Poly, Long Beach, CA) enters with the best time after her 
sizzling 22.92 runner-up at the California State Championships. It was an 
improvement over last year’s time by a scant 0.01.
Rank US #2

Cleo Tyson (Huntsville, TX) sped to an all time best of 23.36 behind Ashley 
Owens at the Great Southwest Classis June 5. At the Texas 4A state meet she 
won both the 100m and 200m titles in scorching times, 11.51 and 23.41(which 
broke an 8 year old state record). It was the second year in a row that she 
completed the trick.
Tyson earned the bronze medal at the World Youth Championships last summer 
in Sherbrooke, Canada.
Ranking US # 4
2003 AOC : 3rd

Alexandria Anderson( Morgan Park,Chicago, IL) best in the 200m, 23.48, was 
set last summer at the USATF Junior Olympics in hot Miami. Her best 
FAT(Fully automatic time) this season, 24.11, was set while competing in 4 
events.
With less events to compete in, she should improve on last year’s 6th place 
AOC finish.

Krystin Lacy(Skyline , Dallas, TX) won the Texas state championship with a 
sizzling 23.45. It was the third state individual title for the junior in 
sprint deep Texas. The 200m will be the only individual event Lacy will run 
at AOC which should make a difference for last year’s 5th placer.

Courtney Champion (Collins Hill, Suwanee, GA) earned her 4th straight title 
in the 200m running 23.84. Last year’s AOC runner-up has improved to 23.44 
this season, a .09 improvement. Champion earned the silver medal at the 
World Youth Championships last summer in Sherbrooke, Canada.

Bianca Knight( Ridgeland, Pearl, MS) claimed her 8th individual state titles 
by posting an  impressive 11.56, 23.98, and 55.63 for her new school, 
Ridgeland and helped them win the Mississippi 4A state team championship. 
After a long layoff, Knight, only a freshman, posted a 3rd place finish in 
the 100m, 11.82 and a  2nd place finish in the 400m

Adidas Outdoor Championships
by Ricky Quintana
Raleigh, NC- The girls’ hurdle races will have plenty of competition as some 
of the nation’s top ranked hurdlers vie for the national high school 
championship title at the Adidas Outdoor Championships at Paul Derr Track on 
the North Carolina State University campus June 18 and 19th.
Here’s an event by event preview of each of the hurdle races.

100m Girls Hurdles
	The 100m hurdles will bring together the three of the top six hurdlers in 
the country. Florida seems to be the hotbed for hurdling this year and the 
two leaders will meet for the fourth time this season. A few Texans are 
entered for good measure.

	Shantia Moss(Pompano Beach,FL)- Moss finished the season undefeated in the 
100m hurdles, but a stumble in the 300m hurdles at the Great Southwest has 
left her slightly injured. She still has had a dominant season, winning the 
60m hurdles at the NIKE Indoor Championships, the Florida Relays and 2A 
Florida state championships where she set a state meet record of 13.53.
	She has pinned three losses against Florida rival and second fastest 
hurdler in the nation, Pavi’Elle James (Northwestern, Miami, FL), and at the 
Great Southwest lowered the national leading time to 13.51. Last year, she 
was runner-up..

	Pavi’Elle James(Northwestern, Miami, FL)- James won the 4A state title for 
the second year in a row with a state meet record tying 13.53. The 
diminutive junior will have one more year to lower the state record. James 
finished 5th last year at AOC and then went on to finish 6th at the World 
Youth Championships in Sherbrooke, Canada.

	Jessica Ohanaja(Westbury, Houston, TX)-Ohanja placed 4th at the Texas 5A 
state championships in a time of 14.10. She has a best of 13.85 this year. 
The Louisiana State signee finished 8th in last year’s final.

	LeeAndrea Robinson(Kimball, Dallas, TX)- Robinson,a junior, won the Texas 
4A state championship in a season best time of 13.66 which is US#5. She 
finished 3rd at the Great Southwest.

	April Williams(Skyline, Dallas, TX)- The frosh lived up to her billing 
taking 3rd at the Texas 5A state championships. At the Great Southwest 
Classic, she DNF’ed.

400m Hurdles
	In the rarely run 400m hurdles, it is often unpredicted how high schoolers 
can handle the additional 100m of hurdles. With only one runner entered at 
under 60 seconds, this race could be wide open.
	The top entrants are:

	Selena Sappleton(AP Randolph,NY)- Pittsburgh bound Sappleton finished 5th 
in time of 1:01.53 at the prestigious Penn Relays. She improved on that time 
twice at the NYSPHSAA to win in a personal best of 58.94. That time is the 
fastest of all the entrants and the second fastest time in the nation.

	Lizzie Harris(Northwestern, Miami, FL)- Frosh Harris came up big placing 
2nd at the Florida 4A state championships in a time of 42.58.

	Krystal Cantey(Winslow Township,Sickersville, NJ)- Sophomore Cantey placed 
second in both the group championships and the All Group Championships. Her 
best time this season was a 60.97. She finished 7th last year.

	Deandra Doyley(Ft. Lauderdale HS,Coral Springs, FL)- Doyley ran a quick 
42.58 to finish 2nd in the Florida 3A state championships. Doyley will have 
less duties required by running for team. That should leave the sophomore 
well rested and able to challenge for All-American.

North Carolina State University campus, June 18 and 19.  For complete

t-and-f: Adidas Outdoor Championships Girls Preview-Distances

2004-06-15 Thread Ricky Quintana
Adidas Outdoor Championships
Raleigh, NC- The girls’ distances are certain to be a highlight as a bevy of 
nationally ranked middle distance and distance athletes descend on Raleigh, 
N.C. for 16th addition of Adidas Outdoor Championships at Paul Derr Track on 
the North Carolina State University campus June 18 and 19th.
Here’s an event by event preview of each of the distance races.

Girls 800m
Last year, North Carolinian, Mackenzie Pierce(Pfafftown, NC) was set to race 
Russian exchange student, Katya Kostetskaya(Jonesboro, AR) and the long 
legged and super fast Heidi Magill(Mountain View, UT) in one of the most 
anticipated match-ups of the meet. But, as luck would have it, Pierce 
slipped and suffered an injury to her knee that required stitches.
The 6-0 junior has since recovered taking second at the NIKE Indoor 
Championships. She also led her high school team to a runner-up finish by 
posting wins in the 200m, 25.51, 400m, 56.49, 800m, 2:20.77, and the 1600m, 
5:12.48 at the NCISA 3A State championships in a two hour span. She enters 
with the fastest time, 2:06.97, of all the entrants.
At the Golden West Invitational this past weekend, Pierce did not finish.

Her main challengers will be the following:
Sarah Bowman(Fauquier, Warrenton, VA) posted a quick 2:07.69 at the Taco 
Bell Classic which ranks her second among the 800m entrants. Bowman has 
shown a good turn of speed for a miler and should be able to match the 
towering Pierce.

Geena Gall(Grand Blanc, Detroit, MI) posted a come from behind win over 
Pierce at this past winter’s NIKE Indoor Championships. Gall, a junior who 
is an all-conference point guard and honor roll student, has since won the 
Div I 800m title in an all division state record time of 2:08.00.

Janine Davis( Queen of Peace, North Arlington, NJ) won the NJ ALL-Group 
championships in her best time of the season, 2:07.82. She finished 11th at 
last year’s AOC.

Girls Mile
One week prior to AOC mile final, several of the entrants produced some 
tremendous times swelling the field and lifting the girls field status to 
the BEST ALL-TIME girls mile. In what has been an incredible year, a 
staggering 27 girls have run under 4:50 for the 1600m in the indoor and 
outdoor seasons(using 1500m, 1600m, and mile conversions). That number is 
the most ever and surpasses the previous high of 13 in 1998 according to 
track and field girl’s high school pundit, Mike Kennedy. 15 of those girls 
are currently entered in the AOC mile.
The meet record of 4:39.05 set by Ari Lambie(Bromfeld, Harvard, MA)will get 
a test from a field like none other.

The list of 15 under 4:50 are as follows:
Katelyn Kaltenbach(Smoky Hill, Aurora, CO.)- Arguably the best distance 
runner in the nation was handed her first defeat, cross country or track, of 
the year by Texas state champion Erin Bedell(Plano West, TX) at the Golden 
West Invitational. Her time of 4:45.97 for the mile is an outdoor best and 
is the fastest of all the entrants. Kaltenbach has been nearly unbeatable 
traveling posting wins that include The 2003 Foot Locker Cross Country 
Championships, the NIKE Indoor Championships mile(meet record time of 
4:45.32), The Arcadia Invitational. She has also won the state cross country 
championships and four state track titles this season. For her achievements 
this past fall, Kaltenbach, only a junior, was awarded the named the 
Sportswomen of Colorado 2003 Sportswomen of the Year on March 14, flying 
from Landover, MD after her mile victory to Colorado for the awards ceremony 
that evening.

Caitlin Chock (Roseville, CA)- Chock ran to the US#3 All-Time performance 
for 3200m, 9:58.51, to run away from a select field at the Golden West 
Invitational, June 12. She also has posted US#2 time of 4:25.01 for 1500m 
earlier this track season. Chock, a Foot Locker National finalist in 2002, 
has rebounded stronger than ever after much publicized bout with an eating 
disorder. She won the Div II California cross country championships, but 
decided not to run for her team, Granite Bay, this track season.
Chock will attend the University of Richmond next year.

Nicole Blood (Saratoga Springs, NY)- Blood posted the leading time in the 
country in the 3,000m in winning the NYSPHSAA title on June 3 in 9:24.03. 
Blood’s only loss this track season was to Kaltenbach in the mile at the 
NIKE Indoor Championships. There she ran all-time sophomore indoor record of 
4:46.13.

Francis Koons(Central Catholic, Allentown, PA) ran to a 3rd place finish a 
the very fast Golden West Invitational mile on June 12. Her time of 
4:47.90(4:46.34c) improved upon her 1600m best of 4:48.78 at the Class 2A 
state championships by 2.44 seconds. The Villanova signee finished 24th in 
last year’s mile race.

Alicia Follmar, Saratoga HS(Saratoga, CA)- Follmar clocked an impressive 
4:46.47 to win the California state championships June 5 against a very 
tough field. Her come from behind victory was good enough to get her a 
second

Girls Mile at the Adidas Outdoor Championship to feature one the best fields 
ever.
By Ricky Quintana
Copyright- National Scholastic Sports Foundation

Raleigh, NC- 10 state champions. 10 runners under 4:49.74 seconds for the 
1600m. 5 of the top eight nationally ranked milers in the nation. Those are 
just some of the credentials of one of the deepest girl’s mile fields in 
high school history. The winner will be decided on June 19 at the Adidas 
Outdoor Championships at Paul Derr Track on the campus of North Carolina 
State University in Raleigh, N.C. The two day event that begins on June 18th 
is in its fourteenth year and will feature some of the best high school 
track and field athletes in the nation.

Leading the way will be Katelyn Kaltenbach of Smoky Hill High in Aurora, 
CO., arguably the best distance runner in the nation. The 2003 Foot Locker 
Cross Country Champion has continued to roll this track season winning the 
NIKE Indoor mile in a meet record time of 4:45.32(the best mile time indoor 
and outdoors) and collecting her fourth state track title at the Colorado 
State high school track and field championships. Kaltenbach who's racing 
schedule has had her compete on each coast, has not lost all year long, 
cross country or track.

For her achievements this past fall, Kaltenbach, only a junior, was awarded 
the named the Sportswomen of Colorado 2003 Sportswomen of the Year on March 
14, flying from Landover, MD after her mile victory to Colorado for the 
awards ceremony that evening.

The field will be tough though. Any one of the several of the nation's top
middle distance runners could win the title. They include:
Alicia Follmar, Saratoga HS(Saratoga, CA)- Follmar clocked an impressive 
4:46.47 to win the California state championships June 5 against a very 
tough field. Her come from behind victory was good enough to get her a 
second consecutive state title. Her outdoor 1600m time is the best among the 
entrants.

Sarah Bowman, Fauquier(Warrenton, VA)- Bowman ran away from the field at the 
Penn Relays this season to clock the season’s fastest mile time of 4:48.55. 
She owns the 4th fastest time in the nation in the 800m, 2:07.69 and the 
fastest 1500m time, 4:23.8, in the nation. At the VA state championships, 
the versatile Bowman led her team to the runner-up trophy by winning the 
mile in 4:51.11(a state record), the 800m in 2:10.44(a state record), 
placing 2nd in the high jump with a mark of 5 feet 3 inches and running a 
leg on the 4 x 400m championship team. Since her surprise victory in the 
mile at the 2003 NIC Championships, Bowman has suffered ailments that have 
left her below par the past two championships. A sore back kept her from 
defending her NIC mile title this year(11th place) and at last year’s 
AOC(16th place), sickness kept her from performing at her best. She’s on 
schedule to reverse that trend this year.

Jennifer Barringer, Oviedo, FL- Barringer has emerged as one fot he top 
distance runners this year. At the FL 4A state championships on May 9, she 
set two state meet records, 4:48.90 for the 1600m  and 10:35.36 for the 
3200m. On May 22, she ran a personal best of 4:49.01 for the mile; the best 
time ever for the distance in Florida history. She also finished 3rd at the 
Foot Locker Cross Country Championships in San Diego in December. A front 
runner, Barringer will be sure to make the pace quick.

Maggie Infeld, Beaumont(Cleveland Heights, OH)- This year, Ohio is nation’s 
girl’s miling hotbed and Infeld is the best of the lot. Infeld set the state 
meet record with her 4:47.79 in the Division I championships. She also ran 
2:10.83 to win the 800m title. It was the third time she has won both. 
Infeld is the top returnee after last year’s 3rd place finish, 4:51.86. A 
very tenacious competitor, count on her to be there late. She’ll run for the 
Georgetown Hoyas next year.

Magin Kebert, West Lafayette, IN- Kebert finished third behind open runners 
at the Billy Hayes Invitational at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN on 
May 7. Her time of 4:27.94 ranks her 3rd nationally. Kebert did not compete 
for her high school this year. A North Carolina State signee, she’ll be 
running on her future home track.

Jacqueline Areson, Pope John Paul II(Boca Raton, FL)- The fastest soph in 
the field posted a best of 4:49.53 using a stinging kick to nearly hand 
Jenny Barringer her first defeat on the track this season. She was 
disqualified from the 1600m at her region meet for a uniform violation, but 
qualified and eventually won the 800m at the Florida 2A state championships. 
She placed 5th at the NIKE indoor Championships in time of 4:55.37. Areson 
ran 5:07 last year for the 1600m and is possibly the most improved runner in 
the nation. Her late quick finishes may surprise so keep an eye  on her.

Sunni Olding, Minster, OH- The Notre Dame signee and the defending AOC two
mile champ won the Div. III (smallest schools) state championship in a fast
4:48.20

t-and-f: Golden South Preview- Fast 800's and girls sprints

2004-06-03 Thread Ricky Quintana
By Ricky Quintana
Last year’s Golden South had a smattering of top performances. This year’s 
should be no different as some of the best in the nation gather on the 
speedy Payne Stewart Complex’s MONDO track in Orlando, FL.

Girls Highlights
100m
Frosh Bianca Knight (Ridgeland, MS) was just nipped at the line at last 
year’s champs by senior Juanita Broaddus( William Penn, Philadelphia, PA). 
On May 7-8, Knight claimed her 8th individual state titles by posting an 
impressive 11.56, 23.98, and 55.63 for her new school, Ridgeland and helped 
them win the Mississippi 4A state team championship.
Local, Lauren Austin(Orlando, Oak Ridge) will provide a challenge after 
winning the FL state title in the 100m in a personal best of 11.68. She also 
tripled at state posting marks of 24.20(2nd) and 54.36(1st).
400m dasher, Natasha Hastings(Randolph, NY), and BAYTF winner (11.86) Tianna 
Fisher(FL Elite) should also complete a solid field.

200m
Junior Britney Wilson(Orlando, Oak Ridge) blasted to the only sub 24 
performance of the Florida State meets with her 23.98 to win the 4A state 
title. UM bound teammate, Lauren Austin(Orlando, Oak Ridge) has improved her 
speed this season and managed a PR of 24.20; possibly the result of her 5th 
place finish(145 pound bench/175 pound clean) in 154 pound class at the 
state  weightlifting championships, February 7. 3A FL state champion and 
sophomore, Galyn Iloka (Rockledge,FL) posted a quick 24.39 into a 1.0m 
headwind and should be even quicker on the ultra quick Payne Stewart track.

400m
Some young guns, froshes Bianca Knight (Ridgeland, MS) and Devon Williams 
(Towson Catholic, Baltimore, MD) will challenge USA World Indoor Team 
member, and University of South Carolina signee, Natasha Hastings(AP 
Randolph, NY) in the 400m. Hastings posted a best of 52.09 at the USATF 
Junior Champs in 2003 to finish 3rd.
Bianca Knight’s best is 53.81 set last summer . Wunderkind,  Devon Williams 
ran a national indoor  record of 1:11.53 for 500m this past indoor season 
and as well as a US #1 in the 800m(2:06.48), and a US #2 in the mile, 
4:50.76 for the mile. Williams also beat Hastings in setting the 500m 
record.
This should be an amazing competition.

800m
Arcadia Invite winner and sophomore, Latavia Thomas (West Catholic, PA) 
posted an outdoor season best of 2:07.21, the US#3 time. Devon Williams’ ran 
a 2:06.48 indoors;a  US#1.
Lavera Morris(Orlando Oak Ridge) ran a FL state meet record setting time of 
2:09.90 to win the state championships. She preceeded that with a 5:03.76, 
1600m 2nd place finish. The additional rest should help her in her quest to 
repeat as champion.
5A GA state champion, SW Deklab’s (Powder Springs, GA)Brittany 
Robbins(2:12.41PR), 1A FL State Champion, soph, Danielle Bradley(King’s 
Academy), 2A 1600m/3200m FL State Champion, junior Nicole Schappert(Boca 
Raton, Pope John Paul II), 2:10.89 performer, senior Alondra Cooper( 
Suncoast, FL), 2:13.54 performer, and Jessica Smith( Harrison, Powder 
Springs, GA) complete a very deep  fast field.

400mH
Nicole Leach( AP Randolph, NY) is the class of the field after setting the 
Penn relays record and US#11 time  of 57.84 on April 22.  Two others could 
also challenge the sub 60-second barrier; Holly Hardy (Anderson, SC) 1:04.35 
and Rokesha Williams( Towson Catholic, Batlimor,e MD), 62.

3000m
Jenny Barringer(Oviedo, FL) will tune up for AOC championships with a 3000m 
effort. Barringer posted a US#2 time, 4:49.01, in the mile on May 22. Her 
best this season in the 3200m, 10:35.21, a FL state meet record setting 
time, came after a 4:48.90 FL state meet record time in the 1600m. She 
should be fresh and she’ll need it to get the national leading 9:27.4 run by 
Nicole Blood in the NY sectionals last week. Barringer’s 3200m best, 
10:18.84, is equivalent to the 9:37.60.
Anissa Angeosante(Kingsland, TX ), Jacy Kruzel(Cooper City, FL) and Amanda 
Hahn(Gainesville, FL) should also make for a fairly deep competition.

LJ
Four 18+ footers will be looking to g beyond 19 feet. Surprise 4A FL state 
champion(18-07.75), Zurina Suluki Drakes( Colonial, Orlando, FL) will get  
challenge from  3A FL state champion(18-06.75) Deandra Doyley ( Ft. 
Lauderdale, FL), 18-08.5 performer, Jenna Utecht(St. Thomas Aquinas, Ft. 
Luaderdale, FL) and unknown quantity,  Taniesha Brangman (Pembroke Pines, 
FL) who has entered at 18-8.

100mH
Clemson signee, Polly Hardy has posted a quick 13.77 at her region meet. Her 
next best times are 14.02, 14.23, and 14.41. 3A FL state champion, Jenna 
Utrecht(St. Thomas Aquinas, Ft. Lauderdale, FL). 14.18 performer, Simone 
Clark (Rickards, Tallahassee, FL), and Holly Hardy9Anderson, SC), a 14.58 
performer and Wallace State signee will  make the field very competitive.

SP Discus
Senior Misti Barber( Miami,Carol City) set a state meet record of 49-09.75 
to break Olympian Seilala Sua’s 1996 state meet mark of 49-05.25 May 8. She 
also came back to win the discus with a platter toss of 152-05

  The 13:52.93 split listed in the 10,000 is clearly a typo - presumably 
for 13:22.  They did not run 2:38+-2:41+ for each of the first four kilos 
and then do a 3:13! followed by a world record 2:10.33! for their 5th and 
6th kilos.

She's been covering him since he was a tyke
Football in 2003: Caught 33 passes for 618 yards and nine touchdowns.
Basketball in 2003-04: Quit the team midway through season because of all 
the recruiting trips. At the time, he was team's leading scorer (18 ppg) and 
rebounder (9.9 rpg).

He's 6-3, 195, turned 18 last December. His favorite food is Hamburger 
Helper and his toe feels fine, thank you very much. Don't know what size 
shoes he covers the toe with, but they're not huge. I would guess about a 
12-13 but that's a pure guess.

He and his family went to Baton Rouge over this weekend. Summer school 
starts June 7. He will run at the Great Southwest on June 5 and that's it.

I ask him if running the 20.49 (FAT) last week at the AAU Qualifier in 
Orlando (at First Academy) made him want to run. He said yeah, but it's time 
to get into the LSU summer football program and summer school. He said LSU 
told him he needed to put on some weight for football. I asked if that would 
affect his speed. He said:

No, not if you do it right. You have to lift and run, not lift and eat.

t-and-f: Anti-Doping Agency Enters a Gray Area By JERE LONGMAN

2004-05-27 Thread Ricky Quintana

NEWS ANALYSIS
Anti-Doping Agency Enters a Gray Area
By JERE LONGMAN
SAN FRANCISCO, May 26 - When the United States Anti-Doping Agency was 
created in
October 2000 to oversee drug testing in Olympic sports, it was largely 
hailed as
an independent body that would aggressively nab cheaters and dampen
international allegations of foot-dragging or cover-ups on the part of 
American
officials.

Four years later, the anti-doping agency is treading new ground in the Balco
steroids case - trying to bar athletes if sufficient evidence indicates that
they have used banned substances, even if they have not failed a 
conventional
drug test.

With the Olympic track trials set to begin July 9, and the Athens Olympics 
to
start Aug. 13, this novel effort to ensnare cheaters is being tested under
tremendous time constraints, in a high-pressure atmosphere where questions 
of
fairness, evidentiary proof and due process will be fiercely debated. 
Already,
some harsh if unintended consequences have been created, lawyers and 
anti-doping
experts say.

The reputation of track and field, the showcase event of the Summer 
Olympics,
has suffered greatly, they say, as has the reputation of Marion Jones, the
Olympic sprint champion, who is being investigated but has not been formally
accused of doping and has repeatedly said that she does not take banned
substances.

Marion's in a terrible position, said Jim Coleman, senior associate dean 
of
the Duke law school, who has both prosecuted and defended athletes in doping
cases. I think her reputation has been destroyed.

No one is arguing against making track and field as clean as possible. But 
in
the coming weeks, the anti-doping agency will essentially face a referendum 
on
the legitimacy of its own actions, just as some athletes will potentially 
face
judgment before the agency and the arbitrators on the legitimacy of their 
own
performances.

This seems to be headed quickly for a confrontation on the appropriateness 
of
potentially disqualifying athletes who have not had a positive test, said
Edward Williams, a New York lawyer who represents several athletes on
Balco-related issues.

The anti-doping agency has not said whether it will seek to bar Jones from 
the
Olympics. If it does, its case would be based, in part, on documentary 
evidence
obtained in a file bearing her name taken from the Bay Area Laboratory
Co-Operative. The lab was raided last September by federal authorities, who
recently turned over documents to the Senate Commerce Committee, which gave 
them
to the anti-doping agency.

On Wednesday, Joseph Burton, a lawyer with the San Francisco firm of Duane
Morris who represents Jones, called for the anti-doping agency to make a 
quick
decision about Jones, one he believes should be a public exoneration.

I think it's unfair to let her twist in the wind in a public way, Burton 
said.
I think it's bad for track and field in general to have this negative
atmosphere surrounding one of the most important people in the sport, 
shortly
before the most important event in the sport.

Officials of the anti-doping agency have declined to speak publicly about 
Jones
or any other athlete, except to say they are acting appropriately and 
fairly.

Dick Pound, chairman of the World Anti-Doping Agency, praised the American
agency, saying, For the first time in many, many years, the U.S. is taking 
a
leadership role in this fight.

The legal and public-relations team representing Jones has taken an 
aggressive
public stance, threatening to sue if she is barred from the Olympics on any
evidence short of a failed drug test.

Jones's representatives asked for a meeting with anti-doping officials, 
which
occurred Monday. Burton then criticized the evidence provided them by the
American anti-doping agency as feeble and far below the standard of beyond a
reasonable doubt that is being used to disqualify athletes who have not 
failed a
drug test.

So far, he's doing an excellent P.R. job, David Ulich, a Los Angeles 
lawyer
familiar with doping cases, said of Burton. I think he's putting U.S.A.D.A. 
on
the defensive. He's making such convincing statements to the press regarding 
the
lack of evidence, U.S.A.D.A. would have to come out with something
determinative.

Others have questioned whether Jones's lawyers should have shown to 
reporters
the evidence given to them by the anti-doping agency. Her representatives 
said
they preferred making the documents public on their own terms, rather than
hazard the possibility that they would be leaked by others. The risk, some
lawyers said, is that this attempt to clear Jones's name might have 
increased
the level of suspicion about her.

It permits the public to speculate that documents refer to her and somehow 
may
indicate steroids she took, Coleman said. No matter what comes out later, 
some
people will believe she committed a doping violation and everything she
accomplished is a fraud. That's too bad.

t-and-f: Alex Woodley Obituary

2004-05-26 Thread Ricky Quintana
May 26, 2004
Alex Woodley, 71, Coach of Philadelphia Track Club, Dies
By FRANK LITSKY
[A] lex Woodley, who coached and mentored many Olympic gold-medal sprinters 
in
the 1960's and 1970's as head of the Philadelphia Pioneer Club, died on 
Saturday
at his home in Philadelphia. He was 71.

The cause was a heart attack, his wife, Jean, said.
Woodley's athletes who won Olympic gold medals included Paul Drayton, Steve
Riddick, Charlie Greene, Mel Pender, Herman Frazier and Hasely Crawford. 
Other
leading athletes from the club included John Carlos, Ivory Crockett, Curtis
Mills, Edwin Roberts, Tom McLean and Benn Fields.

In an era when meet directors often gave modest appearance fees, which were
illegal, to white track and field athletes, few black athletes so benefited.
Riddick said Woodley changed that. In 1973, Riddick said by telephone, 
seven
or eight of us from the club were spending the summer running in Europe.

We were just getting by on expense money, he said. At the Bislett Games 
in
Norway, Alex told them we wouldn't run unless we got $1,000 apiece. We got 
it.
We gave him 10 percent, and all of us had a little money in our pockets. It 
was
the first time I was ever paid to run.

Alexander Jiminez Woodley was born April 30, 1933, in Philadelphia. He 
earned a
degree in biology from La Salle University, where he was a premed student 
and
journeyman high jumper. Later, he coached the Pioneer Club team, which did 
not
pay him a salary. He taught English and African-American studies at a high
school from 1963 to 1996.

He is survived by his second wife, the former Jean Dicks; two sons, 
Alexander
III of Dallas and Jeffrey of New York; two daughters, Dr. Aminta Breaux of 
North
Wales, Pa., and Alicia Woodley of Philadelphia; two brothers, Fernando of
Philadelphia and Dr. William Rodgers of Blue Bell, Pa.; two sisters, Aminta
Burnett and Micalena Carter, both of Philadelphia; his mother, Micaela 
Woodley,
of Philadelphia; six grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.

In 1980, Woodley told The Philadelphia Bulletin about a lesson in life in 
1950,
when he was a freshman in college. When the La Salle track team arrived in
Baltimore for a meet, the white athletes went to a hotel and Woodley and 
other
black athletes were sent to private homes.

Was I that different? Woodley recalled thinking. Did they have to 
separate me
from that group? Would I taint somebody? Afterward I wanted to make sure 
that
this never happened to a kid. It's been my life's work. I'd probably be a
millionaire right now if I'd put these hours in private business.

another sizable victory until final 200m. Even pace running Areson speeds 
home in the final 200m on the inside as Barringer drifts out into lane 2. 
It's closer than anyone expected as Barringer holds off super soph Areson. 
Schappert's ailing foot and asthma like attack leaves her in a heap at the 
finish.
I didn't know she was that close,  Barringer says afterwards.  I finished 
and then Jackie comes in right after me.
 My coach says I need to work on drifting out to the 2nd and 3rd lanes in 
the final staright, she says with a laugh.
 I don't know where that came from, Areson says of her finish.
 I didn't go out with them because it was way too fast.
Gulliver Prep's Bryan Sharkey, jr)sets new personal best and Florida state 
leader placing 3rd in 4:16.14 in the mile.
Finally, I get a Dyestat elite mark!, Sharkey says afterwards.

Andrew Martin takes over, but is caught by fast finishing University of West 
Florida frosh Michael Padilla(who made a 5 hour trek from the panhandle in 
the afternoon) who runs a new personal best of 4:14.33. Amrtin holds off 
Sharkey who runs 2:10 over his last half to set new Florida state leader,

t-and-f: FL 3A and 4A state meet Preview

2004-05-07 Thread Ricky Quintana
The Florida State Track and Field Finals will be held at the University of 
Florida's Percy Beard Track on Friday and Saturday, May 7 and 8, 2004.  The 
state meet event schedule is located at 
http://www.fhsaa.org/programs/sports/tr/state_schedule.htm.
State meet record, all-time records, and national record will be threatened 
as one of the greatest group of high school athletes in Florida history 
gather for the final weekend of the Florida track and field finals.
Individual records that will be threatened are: 100m Roosevelt McCall Ocala 
Forest 10.38(1993);200m Xavier Carter 20.69(2003) ;400m Geno White  
Jacksonvile Wolfson 45.94(1998); Westley Stockbarger 202-08(2003); Viktoria 
Andonova HJ 6-00(2003);TJ record 41’7 1/2”, Shannell McMiller, Miami 
Northwestern, 1998 (6A).
Ones to watch in this year's races for state record and national purposes.
3A Xavier Carter “ X-Man” Palm Bay(100m, 200m, and 400m) If he wins, he 
becomes the first to win 4 straight 400m titles. If he triples, he becomes 
the second person since Hernando Pearson from  Brooksville won the 100 yard 
dash, the 220 and the 440 in 1915 and 1917. Pearson also won the shot put in 
1915. No one has completed the triple two consecutive years. If he wins all, 
Carter will have  9 individual titles which will tie him for first all-time 
with E. Newcome, Ocala, 1925-27 and Houston McTear, Baker, 1973-76. He is 
also the national indoor 200m record holder with his 20.69  at the NSIC meet 
March 13, 2004 and the state meet record holder with a time of 20.69 set 
last year.
Westley Stockbarger Charlotte( Discus and SP) He broke the  discus record by 
Dock Luckie set in 1977 with his 202-08 last year. He has a chance to break 
it again and he also has a chance at the oldest standing record on the state 
meet record books Dock Luckie Ft. Pierce Central  65-04 1977
Ricardo Chambers Dwyer (400m), defending 4 A state 400m champion, has run 
46.27 for the 400m this year. He could beat Carter though last week Carter 
beat him by 2 seconds after he(Carter) took him out fast.
Tim Harris Booker T. Washington (1600m and 800m) He will try and double. 
He's the 6th fastest Florida all-time in the 800m with his 1:50.36 this 
season.
4A Viktoria Andonova, Coral Springs has high jumped 6-01 this season and is 
the state meet record holder.
She jumped 41-5.50 in the TJlast year to just miss the record. She is the 
daughter of former world record holder, Lyudmila Andonova  of Bulgaria.
Walter Dix, Coral Springs has run 10.28, 20.56 this year. He has a run 
10.45, 10.32 and 10.36 against no competition in successive weeks. He has 
also run under 21 second several times this year. His best, 20.56 is a 
national leader. He also has a chance a Houston McTear’s Florida all-time 
record of 10.16 set in 1976.
Jennifer Barringer Oviedo (1600m and 3200m) Barringer owns the 2nd fastest 
FL all-time 3200m with her 10:18.84. Her best in the 1600m this season is 
4:50.33 at regions last week. She is aiming for a sub 4:50 which would break 
Hillary White's (Buchholz) record 4:54.65 set in 2000. She could also beat 
the best mark in the 3200m 10:41.59, Kara Scanlin, Episcopal (Jacksonville), 
2002. Barringer  was the only high school athlete to make the USA World 
Junior Cross Country Championships team that competed March 20, 2004 in 
Brussels, Belgium. She placed 35th there. She was also 3rd at the Foot 
Locker National Cross Country Championships in San Diego in December. The 
placing was the highest ever by a Florida, boy or girl, in the 25 year 
history of the meet.
Lauren Austin Oak Ridge (100m, 200m, and 400m) could pull a pretty rare 
triple. She is ranked #1 in the 100m and 200m and her best from last year, 
53.61 is the best of the field. She was also a member of the 4 x 400m relay 
team that won the World Youth Championships gold in Sherbrooke, Canada.
Pavielle James Miami Northwestern 100m H She had the state meet record, 
13.69 until last week's 13.53 by Shantrell Moss of Pompano Beach. She could 
get the record. She finished 6th in the 100m hurdles at the World Youth 
Championships last summer in Sherbrooke, Canada.
Oak Ridge's 4 x100m, 4 x 400m set the record last year and set the all-time 
record of 3:41.34 in California this year. They will be running without 
Austin though in both relays.
3A Girls Team breakdown
St. Thoma Aquinas comes out on top in the mock team scoring. Their 54.25 
points outdistances Bishop Kinney's 41. The remaining teams of interest 
Wolfson 38, Rockeldge 36,EdWhite 35.5 and Ft. Lauderdale 24.

to #3 all-time for number of team championships. They will also move to #1 
for the most consecutive titles for a girl's team in track and field 
history.

The title was put away with the 3,200 and despite Andy Biladeau's bum knee, 
the team earned the points they needed to win.
``It was good for the team that it was him running the race. If it was 
anyone else [who was injured], we probably wouldn't have won,'' Coach Andy 
Matthews said of Biladeau. ``But he's a tough kid. He may not look like it, 
but he is. He's tough as a $2 steak.''
Beau Burroughs easily made the state meet, beating his nearest opponent by 
20 feet in the discus and 15 in the shot put. Burroughs earned a personal 
best in the discus, throwing 174 feet, 7 1/2 inches.

But all eyes were on Barringer, the junior running machine who churned out 
eight laps around Bob Mosher Track faster than Floridian in history. Her 
time of 10:35.21 is six seconds faster than the existing state record for 
3,200 meters, 10:41.59 by Kara Scanlon of Jacksonville Episcopal. Records 
can only be set at the state meet.
The time is also the fastest in Florida since Sharon Chiong of Miami Killian 
ran 10:33.8 for two miles in 1982.
Barringer also dipped below the 5-minute mark for the 1,600 for the fifth 
time, running a district record 4:57.10.
My hope is to double at state, Barringer said.

The track setting is unbelieveable. The track has seating for 20,000 and 
Saturdays events should fill the stands. The climate is great with forecast 
of some showers for tomorrow. It is very windy and the sprints should be 
fast. Arkansas' 4x8 was still able to set a stadium record today, 7:25.14 . 
Said Ahmed 1:49.0,Robbie Stevens, 1:51.9, James Hatch 1:52.8, 1:51.5. Some 
other splits Tom Hobbs, Illinois, 1:52.7, Adam Davis, 1:50.9,Alistair Cragg 
is scheduled to compete int eh 4x1500 and the DMR.
Sanya Richards came out and did some drills as recuperatin Bev Kearney sat 
in a wheelchair.  Maurice Greene and Bernard Williams also did some drills 
on the infield.
A scheduled Fish Fry is tonight. Apparently it is a tradition here and a 
very hot ticket.
