Katya Kostetskaya AK with her family: Mom Olga
Dvirna, Dad Alexander and Brother, Sergeay. Katya is an exchange student
from St. Petersburg Russia who is burning up the track this year.
At the GSC she won the 400 Hurdles, gliding over the hurdles like
a graceful gazzell. She must have gotten her genes from Mom who was
a Europeon Champion in the 1500. She also gets excellent help from
Coach Tatiana Bell-Zelentsora who was a champion in the hurdles. To
keep up the family tradition, Sergeay is coming up fast as a distance
runner. |
|
Good coaches can be very competitive, especially when Katya Kostetskaya
and Christina Smith go head to head in the hurdles. But they also
show a healthy respect and friendship toward each other. Here is Coach
Tim Hickey PA who is coach at William Penn, a team
that includes Juanita Broaddus and Christina Smith with Coach
Tatiana Bell-Zelentsora, Katya Kostetskaya's coach. |

Charles Beckwith FL with Sister, Amanda
and Mom, Claudia. Charles is an avid track and field
athlete who was 3rd in a very competitive 400. The Beckwith moved
to Florida from Eldridge Maryland so that Charles would have better
conditions to train. Mom is sold on track and field as a builder of
youth character. She believes so much in it that she has written a
book, "How to Succeed Through Your Teenage Years." Rather
than preach or lecture, the book tells its message through stories.
It is intended to help young people, their parents and educators have
productive and happy teenage years. |
