PG County Sportsplex, Landover MD Feb 18-19
Paul Young pulls Oxon Hill through 
LANDOVER MD 2/19/02 -- Last race, Oxon hill boys ahead of Suitland by a slim 2 points, Paul Young in third place on the last turn behind Laurel's Emem Ifon and Suitland's Timothy Riley. But Young (below) goes 3-wide in the stretch to beat Suitland (red/white) and Laurel (blue) to preserve the Maryland 4A-3A championship over Suitland, 54-48, and set off a jubilant celebration by Oxon Hill athletes and coaches. Young was part of 32 of Oxon Hill's points as he won the 300 in 34.81 US#9 (a 4A record and second only to Kyle Farmer's 34.14 in 1A last year), was 4th in the 55m, and helped Oxon Hill finish 2nd to US#1 Eleanor Roosevelt in the 4x200. Ten meet records were broken for further evidence that the new PG County Sportsplex is changing the environment for Maryland indoor track after years in the dark and slippery Baltimore Armory.
Eleanor Roosevelt won the 4A-3A girls title for the 7th time in 8 years, 73-56 over PG County rival Largo, despite star Tiondra Ponteen's ailing leg. Ponteen scratched from the 300, missed the 500 (where she is #1 in the country) because of scratching in the regional, and was unable to hold off Largo in the 4x400. Roosevelt is US#1 in both 4x200 and 4x400 relays.
