| Merber moves fastest in final lap Nick Crits PA led in the early going, but dangerous kickers Kyle Merber NY and Robby Andrews NJ were lurking in the pack. Virginia's Pete Dorrell took over at the half, pulling the field through in 2:06.4. New Jersey distance ace Doug Smith charged to the fore at the three-quarter, reached in 3:13, with Dorrell and Merber on his heels and Andrews biding his time in the 5-6 slot. With two laps remaining, Merber blasted to the front and held off Andrews through a final torrid kick that saw Merber win in 4:13.86 and Andrews in his wake at 4:14.60. Charles White CO got up for third in 4:15.01 - Story, Pix and Results
3-Peat for Southern Regional with Smith's win Southern Regional junior Jillian Smith guaranteed it would be three in a row for her New Jersey high school, following up the back-to-back Millrose wins of former teammate Danielle Tauro with her own convincing victory on Friday night. Smith sat on Kristin Reese (Carmel NY sr) through splits of 72.6 – 2:28 – 3:41, then pulled away from the taller, lankier Reese with a quarter mile to go and staked her way to a 4:50.87 clocking, well clear of the field. Cory McGee (Pass Christian MS soph) was runner-up for the second year in a row, following her 4:53.90 second place from 2007 with a 4:55.52 effort here. McGee pulled even with a fading Reese after Smith sprung her move, and then gapped the Carmel senior, who hung on gamely for third in 4:56.21 - Story, Pix and Results
