Chris Bilbrew (Phenix City, Ala.) took the early lead in the four-lap race, and held it most of
the way. Cory Primm (Thousand Oaks, Calif.), and Joseph Franklin (Tallahassee, Fla.) stayed in back,
taking turns at second place along the way. Bilbrew passed the halfway mark in 58.5
Primm began to challenge heading into the last lap, but coming into the final turn Axel Mostrag (Fork
Union, Va.) began to charge.
At the finish just Mostrag and Bilbrew were left, straining with such effort that they fell to the track as
they finished the race. For a moment, no one in the building could figure out the winner.
Then the scoreboard showed Mostrag in first place with a time of 1:51.63, a meet record and the No. 7
all-time prep indoor mark. Bilbrew was second in 1:51.65, with Anthony Hendrix (New Bern, N.C.) third in
1:53.28.
“I wanted to open with 27 [for the first 200 meters] to give me 55 flat,” said Mostrag, a senior at Fork
Union Military Academy. “But the pack went out fast and I didn't want to get left behind. I didn't want to
make the same mistake as yesterday [when he was beaten at the finish in the distance medley relay]. I
just wanted to stay behind him and make a move on the homestretch.”
After his victory, the amiable Mostrag – who says his last name is pronounced 'Moe-strahng' – posed for
photographers in front of the scoreboard, the red-and-white flag of his native Poland draped over his
shoulders.

Girls

It was a runaway, pure and simple.
by Elliot Denman
  There was Easton, Pa. Area High School junior Chanelle Price, who came to 
Landover with 2:04.96 credentials and added a 2:05.3 split anchoring Easton to
the sprint medley title Saturday night, before focusing on the individual
four-lapper.
And there was everyone else.
The script was followed, right from the gun.
Price not only won it in 2:07.43 for a meet record, ousting the 2:09.52 by
Katya Kostetskaya in 2003 but left some quality runners down the track.
"I thought I'd run a little better, but there was nobody around me, I'm
just happy with the win," she said.
"Yesterday was for the team, so maybe that was a little more exciting than
this one."
New Jersey track fans are sorry that she didn't stay in the Garden State.
But she moved away in 2003 after going the first five grades in Scotch Plains,
N.J.
Her long-term ambition: "To run something under 2."
"I know it will take a lot of training and a lot of mile work."
Lots of dedication, too.
Queens/New Yorker Phyllis Francis, a freshman. was a distant second in
2:12.64 with Detroit's Ramzee Fondren third at 2:13.26.
Three morning sections had set the stage for the two-race, time-based
finals.
Fastest of the earlier-rans were Queens, NY eighth-grader Claudia Francis
(2:14.38), Stafford, Va.'s Heather Lambert (2:17.24); Little Elm, Texas's Tian
En Windham (2:18.90) and McLean, Va.'s Michaeline Nelson (2:19.07.)
