Boys


by Pete Cava for NSSF

After a false start charged to the field, Hunter Furr emerged victorious in a close final. The powerfully-built junior from Mount Tabor High School (Winston-Salem, NC) zoomed to the finish line in 10.56, followed closely by Dentarius Locke (Tampa, FL), another junior and Horatio Williams (Oxford, MS). Locke's time was 10.60 with Williams finishing in 10.64.

Williams got out quickly and had the early lead. Furr, a football standout who looks more like a shot putter than a sprinter, moved ahead at about the 60-meter mark. “I was relaxed the whole time,” he said. “I was breathing all the way through the lines and not tightening up. You can’t worry about who’s around you. If you’ve got your head and if you’re running all the way through, it doesn’t matter who’s around you.”

The 6-0, 195-pound running back, who helped Mount Tabor to the state 4A title last fall, has announced plans to attend the University of North Carolina.

“This means everything to me because I’ve worked so hard over the last two weeks,” said Furr. “To say you are a national champion is truly an honor.”

The race was run into an 0.6 meters-per-second wind.

Girls


by Elliot Denman for NSSF

Newnan, Georgia’s defending champion, Chalonda Goodman, had equaled the NON record with her 11.39 romp in the prelims, matching the all-time best in this meet shared by Kansas City’s Muna Lee, Fort Lauderdale’s Sanya Richards, and Chicago’s Alexandria Anderson. Lee had run her 11.39 in 2000, Richards hers in 2002, Anderson hers in 2005.

Another 11.39 wasn’t in the cards, though, for the final three and a half hours later. But Goodman’s 11.51, in the face of a 1.0-meter wind in her face, was remarkable nevertheless. Goodman (who’d won this as a sophomore in 11.56) got off to a horrendous start, but recouped all the last ground by the 60-meter mark and blazed home a clearcut winner.

English Gardner, the sizzling sophomore out of Voorhees, NJ, had raced to the early lead, only to see Goodman regain all her lost ground – and a whole lot more.

The real battles came in the duel for the other places. Gardner’s 11.82 held on for second over Gastonia, NC junior Stormy Kendrick (11.87) and Charlotte freshman Dominique
Weathers (11.94.) The fastest senior on the premises, Winterville, NC’s Kelsey McKorkle, settled for fifth in 11.99.

“I knew I had to widen the gap early (after the slow start) because it was going to be tough to defend my title,” said Goodman. “I worked harder than I’ve ever worked before because the competition gets tougher every year.

When everyone says they’re gunning for me, it makes me work harder. There are a lot of things I need to keep improving on, so I’m keep being blessed and keep doing those things that make me successful.”
