BIG DUAL MEET  

     Can a High School Girls' track team run 11.8 (100m), 25.6  (200m) 55.0 

(400m), 2:17.2 (800m) and 5:29.3 (1600m), 14.2  (100mH), 42.3 (300mH), and a 

47.2 (400m Re) and lose a dual meet?   Only in the meets between Long Beach 

Poly and Long Beach Wilson  now a days can a squad race those times, as Long Beach 

Wilson did  on April 29th, and still lose a dual meet.  With monster teams at 

both schools who compete desperately all the way up through the  State 

Championship level for wins, each time these two groups  come together it is 

World War III.  On April 29th at the Long  Beach Poly oval, with most 

facilities most certainly running a  bit quicker (we're talking dirt here), Poly swept 

the Boys and  Girls meets 78-49 on the female side, with the Poly Boys' group  

scoring a 93-20 win over Wilson.  

     Lashinda Demus edged Detra King in the 300 Lows in 42.3,  with Joni 

Smith's 55.0 probably joining Lashinda as the fastest  dual meet high school times 

ever run in the nation!  

     Darrell Rideaux was 10.5 in the 100m to lead the Poly male  squad to its 

big win.  

     The groups come together this week at Long Beach City  College on Friday 

evening for another rocking affair, the Moore  League Meet on an all-weather 

surface!!!  With three out of the  League guaranteed, there will be some 

slightly competitive  events.  The Southern Section has made allowances for 

those who  run very quick in League Meets to move on to the Section  

competition, with the Moore League on that has been cheated out  of potential 

Section and possible State Meet qualifiers in the  past with no flexibility 

in entries after League. 

LAUREN FLESHMAN(CANYON, CANYON COUNTRY) BIG 1500!!!

     Competing in open competition to be in a race where the pace  is taken 

out quickly, Lauren Fleshman (Canyon, Canyon Country),  the nation's quickest 

3200m runner off her 10:21 run at Arcadia,  moved down to the 1500m competing 

"unattached" at the Steve Scott  Invitational at UC Irvine with some good 

results.  Finishing  second behind Darcy Lange's 4:22.15, Fleshman raced a 

1999  National Prep leading 4:27.73!  

     Coach Dave DeLong commented a week ago that he wanted to  have Lauren 

race in an event where she was dragged out on a tough  pace. 

     It will be some State Meet in June with athletes such as  Alejandra 

Barrientos (4:47.94 for 1600m at Arcadia with a big  kick that included a 65 

second final 400 and 31 final 200) and  Sara Bei (National Scholastic Indoor 

Champ over Mile and 2 Mile)  who last year took the State 1600 and 3200 

titles outdoors!    

     Fleshman, Stanford bound, has talked of tripling up through  the Section 

Divisional meet May 23rd, before dropping to one  event.

GREAT PREP HAMMEREFFORTS

     Shannon Daniels (Unattached, Upland HS) was 155-07 (3rd) in the Steve 

Scott Meet in the Hammer, with Stephanie Sampson (Unattached, Esperanza HS) 146-04 

(7th) close behind, for two o the better prep hammer efforts in the nation in 

prep history.  Only six prep athletes threw farther than Daniels' 155-07 last 

year as high-schoolers, with one other ahead of Sampson's effort!
