Sarah Bowman VA 4:36.95 ran her usual wall to wall sprint and shrugged off Brie Felnagle's late charge. It was US#3 all time (4:35.24 Polly Plumer 1982 and 4:36.94 Kim Gallagher 1982) and fastest ever in a high school only race. Bowman went out in 67.0 and 2:17.5 for a quarter and half mile, losing all but Felnagle. Felnagle closed steadily and seemed ready to pass on the far turn with her patented finishing kick. But Bowman reached down and repelled the charge to win convincingly. "I told myself, 'You did it this far, you might as well keep going.' " Afterward, Bowman admitted she was going for the record. "I tried, I tried. I wouldn't have told anyone before the race, but I did want the record." Was she happy to end her high school career on such a high note? "Right now it's hard to enjoy. I don't feel so good. I don't want to run the 4x400. (she didn't)" [John Dye}
