Pan American Junior Championships - Day 1 - July 18, 2003

Memorial Stadium, Waterford, Barbados

Women

100m Semifinals
Shalonda Solomon of the US set herself up as the one to beat with a relatively easy 11.48 semi 1 win. The other American, Ashley Owens, though third in the second heat, was third overall in time after the 3 semifinal heats. That was a fast one, with Wanda Hutson (Trinidad and Tobago) winning in 11.62, followed by Sherone Stewart (Jamaica) at 11.64, then Owens in 11.67.

100m Final
A great run for Shalonda Solomon, winning in 11.35. She held off a fast-closing Sherone Simpson of Jamaica (who had an 11.37 pb coming into the meet). Solomon’s 11.35 was just off the 11.34 meet record of Angela Williams, set in Havana in 1977.

400m Semifinals
Stephanie Smith of the US had a big lead even after the first 100 meters in semi 1. She held on to win in relatively easy style. Angel Perkins, challenged early in semi 2 by Canadian Patricia Mayers, also won her race easily, setting up a probable US sweep in this event tomorrow.

3000m Final
A small field (six) which remained a “pack” for the first 1000m. The Americans (Laura Zeigle of Colorado U., and Brianna Mc Leod, a recent graduate of Jenks, OK high school) traded the lead until that point until passed by Colombian Angela Figueroa. Figueroa was never again seriously challenged and won, with Zeigle second.

100m Hurdles Final
A pair of Jamaicans (Keisha Brown and Latoya Graves) joined a pair of Canadians (Marie-Eve Dugas and Frances Keating) and Americans (Alandra Sherman and Dawn Harper). Harper, who just completed her freshman year at UCLA, got out even with Keisha Brown and steadily gained through the 5th hurdle. Sherman, out in lane 8, went unnoticed and “snuck” in for second at the very end of the race. Harper won in 13.42 (-0.2), slightly off her seasonal best of 13.33. Sherman ran 13.80 for second.

Discus Final
There was not real competition for the Americans, with Ohio State’s Amarachi Ukabam winning in 170-9, and Alabama’s Beth Mallory taking second in 167-0. Shernelle Nichols of Barbados was a distant second in 133-4.

High Jump
1. Sharon Day USA (Costa Mesa, CA) 6-0.75
2. Lavern Spencer St. Lucia 6-0
3. Chaunte Howard USA (Georgia Tech) 5-11.25
4. Caterine Ibarquen Colombia 5-11.25
5. Peaches Roach Jamaica 5-10.5
6. Shaunette Davidson Jamaica 5-9.25
7. Desiree Crichlow Barbados 5-9.25
8. Fabiola Ayala Mexico 5-8

Day was the only jumper “clean” through 5-10.5. Howard, with 1 miss at that height, was the only one to clear 5-11.25 on her first attempt. Day and Spencer both cleared on their third try. Day cleared 6-0 on her first attempt, Spencer on her second and Howard went out at that height. Day then cleared her winning height on her second jump and Spencer missed on all three, giving Day the victory. She then had the bar raised to 6-3.5 and missed on all three tries.

Men

400m Semifinals
The favorite, Baylor soph Jeremy Wariner, got a bit of a scare early from Jamaican Kiel Brown. Brown, to Wariner’s outside in lane 7, led for the first 200m, but Wariner pulled away from him and the field around the final turn, taking the win in 46.51. In semi 2, American Ashton Collins drew lane 1, seemingly what he wanted. He kept the field in view for the first half of the race, then blasted past the group to win “going away” in 47.32. Like the women, it appears the men will “sweep” this event.

800m Semifinals
Nothing special here as the eight qualifiers ran between 1:52.80 and 1:53.51. Both Americans, Michael Inge and Michael Mc Grath qualified, and seem to be in the 1:47 and 1:48 shape that they were in last month.

5000m Final
Americans Galen Rupp and Peter Meindl (Stanford), traded leads for the first half of the race with Rupp eventually pulling away for as much as a 50 meter lead. At that point, John Cusi of Peru and stayed with Rupp until 2 laps to go, at which time Rupp extended his lead to win handily.

110m Hurdles Final
The Americans, Kenneth Ferguson and Dexter Faulk, clearly the class of this field, showed their mettle with a relatively easy 1-2 sweep. They led from the gun with Ferguson taking a slight lead after the second hurdle. It was all Ferguson from then on, winning in 13.60 (0.0). Faulk was a solid second throughout the race, notwithstanding hitting half of the hurdles. Faulk’s time was 13.82, followed by a pair of Barbadians, Jessie King and Sodeyi Taiwo.

Pole Vault

1. German Chiaraviglio Argentina 16-10.75
2. Joao Gabrel Souza Brazil 16-4.75
3. Jason Wurster Canada 16-0.75
4. Gabriel Baldwin USA (to Nebraska) 15-9
5. Guillermo Chiaraviglio Argentina 15-9
6. David Foley Canada 15-5

no height, Tommy Skipper, USA (to Oregon).

A dominant performance by the Argentinian, missing only at his opening (15-5) and winning heights, before going at 17-1.75). The Americans did not fare too well, with Gabe Baldwin opening at 15-9 and clearing on his first attempt, then having three misses at his next height (16-0.75). Tommy Skipper, the US high school record holder, opened at 16-4.75 but could not make that height.

Long Jump

1. Winfred Martinez Caraba Cuba 25-3.25 +0.2
2. David Girart Rivero Cuba 25-0.5 0.0
3. Ronald Hill USA (Mt SAC) 24-10.5 0.0
4. Rubens Santos Junior Brazil 24-5.75 0.0
5. Thiago Dias Brazil 24-1 -0.3
6. Wilbert Walker Jamaica 23-6.25 0.0
7. Louis Trispan Peru 23-3.5 +0.3
8. Shawn Thomas Trinidad and Tobago 23-2.75 +0.1

no mark: Martin Boston, USA

The Cubans, coming in as the clear favorites, did not disappoint. Martinez Caraba had 2 legal jumps: one to get him into the finals (24-7), and the winning jump.

Shot Put (jr implement)

1. Garrett Johnson USA (Florida State) 65-5.5
2. Noah Bryant USA (USC) 63-7.75
3. Gustavo Mendonca Brazil 63-1.5
4. Reynaldo Proenza Rivo Cuba 60-10.5
5. Kyle Helf Canada 58-8.75
6. Jovanny Garcia Colombia 58-0.5
7. Kimani Kirton Jamaica 57-10.25
8. Dave Adamek Canada 56-6.75

Johnson opened 63-5.5 and Bryant fouled. Bryant took the lead with his third throw in the prelims (63-7.75). Johnson took over on throw four (64-10.75), then sealed the victory with his winning throw before fouling on his final attempt.

Javelin

1. Julio Cesar Oliveira Brazil 224-6
2. Justin Ryncavage USA (North Carolina) 224-1
3. Thomas Jordan USA (Cedar Crest, PA) 208-6
4. Luis Guzman Mexico 204-1
5. Johnny Viafara Colombia 198-11

Ryncavage had the lead after round 1 at 209-0, just ahead of Jordan (208-6). Jordan would never better that throw, ultimately finishing third. Oliveira “took over” with his second throw (219-8), then increased her lead on his next throw to 224-6, the ultimate winning toss. Ryncavage thought he had the lead after his penultimate throw, but fell short by 5 inches.

USATF release
Ferguson sets Pan American Junior record

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados - The 2002 World Junior Championships 400m hurdles silver medalist, Kenneth Ferguson set a Pan American Junior Championships record in winning the men’s 110m hurdles Friday night at the Barbados National Stadium in Waterford, St. Michael.

The University of South Carolina sophomore-to-be had a time of 13.60 seconds bettering Rodney Wilson’s 13.71 seconds in 1980. “Before the race, I was just trying to place because of the pain in my groin,” said Ferguson. “My adrenaline went up (during the race) and with my teammates cheering for the U.S., the pain had gone away temporarily. I am excited, this is my first individual gold medal,” Ferguson continued. Dexter Faulk of Atlanta, Ga., won silver to add to Team USA’s medal count. The 19-year-old Barton County Community College (Kan.) had a time of 13.82. “This is an amazing experience to show our country and others what we are made of,” said Faulk. “I didn’t run the way I wanted, but I’ve learned and progressed a lot since my last international competition.”

In other action, Team USA had a few dynamic duo gold and silver medal performances to open the first day. UCLA’s Dawn Harper was the first to strike gold earlier in the evening by winning the women’s 100m hurdles in 13.42. “I just wanted to have quick feet over the hurdle and attack each one aggressively,” said Harper. Alandra Sherman of Houston, Texas continued Team USA’s dominance with her silver medal in the women’s 100m hurdles. The senior at Eisenhower High School had a time of 13.80. “I got out good beating most of the athletes out of the blocks,” said Sherman. “I hit a couple hurdles that made me get off step, but I managed to stay in there and finish strong. I am happy and could not have asked for any other way because Dawn (Harper) and I came in here with a goal to take first and second place.”

Amarachi Ukabam of Ohio State won gold in the women’s discus throw with a toss of 52.05m/170-9. “I felt I could have done better technically, but my goal was to win and that is what I did. It really feels great to get my first gold medal in an international competition,” said Ukabam. The three-time Ohio state discus throw champion and the University of Alabama’s Beth Mallory won silver with her toss of 50.91m/167-0. “I would have liked to do better, but you do what you do that day (to win). I am happy to be here and compete for Team USA,” said Mallory.

Florida State University’s Garrett Johnson tossed 19.95m/65-5.50 to win gold in the men’s shot put while Noah Bryant of the University of Southern California won silver with a toss of 19.40m/63-7.75. “I am happy to set a personal record amongst the tough competition with the top three spots so close. The atmosphere was great to get my first medal competing internationally,” said Bryant.

The 2003 USA Junior Outdoor Championships 5 km runner-up, Galen Rupp of Portland won the men’s 5,000m in a personal best time of 14:20.29. “I was relaxed during the race even though the pace was fast at the start,” said Rupp. “I made my move earlier than I had planned and took the lead after six laps. Peter (Meindl) helped me out with seven laps to go. I got a little nervous when the Mexican athlete surged right by me with two laps to go,” Rupp continued.

The Cal-Poly San Luis Obispo-bound Sharon Day leaped 1.85m/6-0.75 to win gold before the clock struck midnight in the women’s high jump. “I am happy that we were able to jump tonight (due to the decathlon men’s high jump going over), it felt good after my third jump and confident that I would stay on top. I was leaning to early on my take off because the flow wasn’t there,” said Day.

Justin Ryncavage of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill won silver in the men’s javelin throw with a toss of 68.30m/224-1. “I started out rusty, but was able to recover to finish with a medal. I put it all together on my second throw in the finals to set my personal best,” said Ryncavage. Teammate and Coastal Carolina University-bound Thomas Jordan won bronze with a throw of 63.57m/208-6. “I am just glad to be here in Barbados. It feels really good to wear this medal around my neck for my country. Second and third place is not bad for Team USA,” said Jordan.

Laura Zeigle of South Jordan, Utah ran 10:04.18 to win silver in the women’s 3,000m race. “This was a good experience for me because I have not run in two to three months. I just wanted to have fun and see where I stand,” said Zeigle. Ronald Hill of Mt. SAC College won bronze in the men’s long jump with a leap of 7.58m/24-10.50. Donavan Kilmartin is in second place after five events in the men’s decathlon with 3,746 points. He won the men’s decathlon long jump (6.92m/22-8.50). “I am just trying to stay healthy and make it through to tomorrow,” said Kilmartin.
