In the Husky Classic, Mt. Spokane WA sr. Megan O'Reilly, running against collegiate and open runners, clocked a 16:26.37 5000m, the fastest prep girls time ever (the track is an oversized 307 meters, requiring notation for records or all-time lists). She finished 11th of 34 competitors. Bri Jackucewicz NJ ran 16:43.02 as an 8th-grader in 2004 and Cassie Hintz ME went 16:45.82 in 2005.
The Gerry Lindgren Invitational, held within the college/open meet, featured a boys 5000 meter race to honor distance legend and recent Hall of Fame inductee Gerry Lindgren. Daniel Mercado CA took the lead from the gun, and never released it, winning in 14:47.72. Isaac Stoutenburgh OR gave a late charge for 2nd in 14:53.87, with Robert Cosby WA winning the battle for 3rd (15:02.64). Julian Blake-Cowan WA, with Diego Mercado kindly providing pacing, ran a freshman class best of 15:53.16.
Also, running against college/open runners in the 3000m, Kenny Klotz OR sped to a US#1 8:23.33. |
