Boys 2-Mile: Michael Coe CA 8:56.87 see story by Stephen Underwood It came down to a duel between Michael Coe CA and Craig Forys NJ, and Coe won text by Pete Cava Michael Coe took over the lead with two laps remaining and cruised home unchallenged. Coe, whose name inevitably draws questions about British Olympian Sebastian Coe, finished in 8:56.87. Michael Eaton (Bowling Green, KY), Stephen Murdock (Saratoga, NY), Isaac Stoutenburgh (Central Point, OR) and Craig Forys (Colts Neck, NJ) all took turns in front during the race. Meanwhile, Coe was content to hang back, watching the race develop. With five laps to go and Stoutenburgh in first, Coe picked off Eaton to move into third place behind Forys. With four laps remaining, Forys moved into the lead with Coe on his tail. It turned into a two-man contest with two laps to go as Coe and Forys pulled away. At the bell, Coe began to leave Forys behind. The junior from New Jersey finished second in 8:59.98. Matthew Tebo (Albuquerque, NM), another junior, moved up for third in 9:10.02. “Oh, yeah,” Coe said when asked about his name. “Everywhere I go, people ask if I’m related to Seb. Maybe in ability, I hope.
