Boys Summary by Pete Cava
Gil Roberts (Oklahoma City, OK) and Sean Holston (Springfield, VA) got quickly out of the blocks and heading into the final turn it was Roberts in the lead.
Holston, a 200/400 double winner at the Nike Indoor Nationals last March, couldn't keep up with the taller Oklahoman, who finished first in 46.16 – the year's third-fastest high school time.
Holston followed Roberts in 46.64, with Brandon Bing (Wyncote, PA) overtaking Danzell Fortson (Fort Worth, TX), the Texas 5A winner, for third in 46.71. Fortson's time was 46.89.
"I wanted to get out the way,"” said Roberts. “I"’'m accustomed to getting out. It really mattered today because I feel like I didn’t have it until the last 10 meters of the race. Once I got on the final 100 meters, I was feeling the pressure from the other guys. I knew if I had it left, I had to give it. It’'s a great feeling to be a national champion. There is no other feeling like it. It means all the hard work paid off.”"

Girls Summary by Elliott Denman
Just as expected, just as all the insiders knew, just as Jessica Beard knew it would work out, this was destined to be her personal victory lap.
The Euclid, Ohio senior - a 2006 World Junior Championships 4x400 relay gold medalist, who’d been slowed by injury earlier this year - lived up to every prediction, winning overwhelmingly and doing everything but erase the meet record of record of 52.04 she’d set here in 2006.
“I felt like I struggled at first, but during the last 200 meters I kind of caught my stride and started to make my push,: Beard explained.”
“I thought it was an important win because it gives me confidence going into next week (USA Junior Nationals.). For some reason I didn’t have it today. I usually cross over into the seventh lane by the first turn, but I had really had to push it today to get there. I’m glad because it gives me something to work on this week.”
The event required seven sections and it was Greenville, SC freshman Briana Nelson beating up on her elders by taking the silver with a 53.74 win out of section six. Another super freshman, Voorhees, NJ’s English Gardner, netted third in 54 flat, right behind Nelson. Three more broke 55.
