�Boys Results Preview by Tim Fulton from ArmoryTrack.com Where do you begin when looking at the NYS Championships, which will be held Sunday, March 6th at Syracuse University�s Carrier Dome?� Well, I guess that depends on what kind of track and field fan you are. ��� For most people, one of the most anticipated rematches of the year will occur in the girls 3000m run, where Warwick�s Aislinn Ryan will battle Saratoga�s Nicole Blood.� Currently, these two are ranked one and two in the country (9:39 and 9:42) and have had many epic battles over the last year.� Or how about the girls 1000m run, where we could see a new National freshman class record.� Top seed Mary Liz McCurdy (Bayshore) will have her hands full in freshmen Kristen Reese (Carmel) and Caitlin Lane (Saratoga).� � � The girls 4x800m should provide some finishing power to the meet.� Bayshore, Suffern, Boys and Girls, and Saratoga are all expected to vie for the title.� Let's not forget about the National Record Holder in the pole vault, Mary Saxer.� Saxer became the first HS girl ever to clear 14'00" at Dartmouth on January 8th and she is also ranked 9th in the US in the long jump, where she is the defending National (NSIC) Champion. ��� Two of the nations top milers will match up in the 1600m as Kevin Tschirart (Northport) will battle Shenendehowa's Dan McManamon.� Both have run 4:14.� North Rockland's Carlos Jamieson could be in the mix as he was also in the Millrose Games. ��� The boys 4x400m matches National powers Newburgh (US#1) vs. Sheepshead Bay (US#4).� Newburgh had planned to run the 4x200 as well, but they were DQ'd at their qualifier, so now they can focus on the 4x400.� The NYS Record of 3:17.49 by Southshore in 2001 could be in danger. ��� The boys 4x800m relay matches US#1 and National record holders Syosset against upstate rival Shaker, who is US#2 and ranked 3rd all time.� �� For the complete preview, see Tim Fulton's article on ArmoryTrack.com |
