Bayside VA broke the tape in 1:29.86, #3 all-time, to edge DeMatha Catholic MD’s 1:30.16.

Bayside sr Danny Herbert, jr Jamal Johnson, sr Oliver Alexander and sr Charles Clark (in order) were all smiles after the race.  “We sat down with our coach and figured out we had a good chance to win this one.  So we decided to represent Virginia and go for it,” they said.  Clark added, “We had the heart and dedication this season and have been blessed.  I was 3rd in the 100 last night and might or might not do the 200 later tonight.”

Bayside Track Club (Virginia Beach, VA) held off a late surge by DeMatha High School (Hyattsville, MD) to win
in 1:29.86.

Northwestern High School (Miami, FL), which came to Greensboro with the top seed
time, took an early lead. By the third exchange it was Bayside and DeMatha, with
the Bulldog Striders (Simon Gratz High School, Philadelphia, PA) mounting a
challenge around the final turn.

DeMatha anchor Jeremy Samuels pressed Bayside's Charles Clark on the
homestretch, but the Virginian was up to the challenge. DeMatha settled for the
runnerup spot in 1:30.16 with the Bulldog Striders third in 1:30.91.

“We pretty much knew we were going to come in here and give all we had,” said
Clark, “because we had no chance to win the 4x1 [Bayside failed to get out of
Friday's qualifying round]. We knew we could win this race with the talent we
have. We calculated everyone’s personal best, and when our coach saw that, he
said, 'You guys just go out there and do it!'”
Bayside fielded a team of Danny Herbert, Jamal Johnson, Oliver Alexander and
Clark.
