John Jefferson finishes 3-second win over Boyd Anderson

CORAL SPRINGS FL 5/12/01 - Creeping closer to national record territory, Atlantic Community High School, Del Ray Beach FL, broke the Florida state meet record for the 4x800 relay by almost 2 seconds. Atlantic wasn't actually gunning for the state record because they wanted to protect John Jefferson's try for an historic 800-1600 double tonight (never been done before in the Florida state meet). But Atlantic was pushed throughout by Boyd Anderson 7:40.69, who led twice during the race. With the fast pace and the record in sight, coach Ken Schappert gave anchor John Jefferson the go-ahead with 200 meters to go. At that point, Boyd had pulled within 5 meters of Atlantic. John J. turned on the afterburners and blazed home in an unofficial 1:50.72 split. Other splits: Josh Randall 1:59, Sean Jefferson 1:53, and Ken Schappert (the coach's son) 1:54.

Coach Shappert said he thinks the team can shave 3-4 seconds off today's mark in the adidas Outdoor Championships at Raleigh in June. There they will be matched again against Alan Webb's South Lakes VA team in both the 4x800 and distance medley. Coach Schappert said he and South Lakes Coach Scott Raczko have agreed to face each other in each relay. Atlantic has already beaten South Lakes twice this year in the DMR, in the Nike Indoor Classic with the second best indoor time ever and at the Arcadia Invitational in the third fastest outdoor time ever (9:57.88). Today's 4x800 ranks 10th on Jack Shepard's all-time list.

Short Takes

  • Erica Whipple ends her prep career with 12 Florida state titles, including four straight 100/200 sprint doubles.
  • The crowd at Saturday night's 4A finals overflowed the stands and lined the fences all around the track. It was announced as 7,500, the largest track meet crowd ever in Broward County.
  • New York transplants were prominent in the 4A finals. Dwight Ellick, who was New York state 100 meter champion last year, doubled in the 100/200. Paul Cross, a former ice hockey player in New York, won the 800.
  • Flanagan's Paul Cross surprised better known runners like John Jefferson of Atlantic and Curtis McBride of Boyd Anderson when winning the regional meet last week, but he was nervous at the start against the same runners with the state title on the line. It was Jefferson who calmed him by saying, "Don't worry, it's just like last week." And it was, as Cross edged McBride and Jefferson in a 3-way photo finish.
