By Jamie Kempton
The spirit of Larry James helped push Clayton Parros to a realm few schoolboys ever reach. Running against an elite field of open men, Parros, the Seton Hall Prep sensation, won the 400 meters in 47.58 seconds, the No. 1 scholastic time in the U.S. this season and No. 4 all time in New Jersey, to headline performances in the 14th New Balance Games at the Armory Track & Field Center in New York. read more

Familiar faces lead cast of stars at New Balance Games - Jamie Kempton

Many of the stars lighting up the scholastic track circuit this indoor season will be in alignment Saturday as the 14th New Balance Games take center stage at the Armory Track & Field Center in New York City.

Some 5,000 athletes from seven states – New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia – will converge on the track mecca in upper Manhattan, which has played host to a bevy of nationally ranked performances in recent weeks in major meets such as the Bishop Loughlin Games, Marine Corps Holiday Classic, Hispanic Games and Molloy Stanner Games.

The invitational mile races have assembled quality fields and promise to grab a sizable share of the spotlight. Both runners-up from last year, New Jerseyans Doug Smith of Gill-St. Bernard’s and Melanie Thompson of Voorhees, are entered and figure to be prime contenders for individual honors. Smith’s 4:16.19 from the Hispanic Games two weeks ago earned him a coveted spot in next week’s Millrose Games boys’ mile. He wears the favorite’s cloak Saturday, but among those vying to knock him off will be a pair of fellow Garden Staters, Andy Arnold of Bishop Eustace Prep and Sean Pohorence of Morris Hills, as well as North Rockland’s Chris Carrington, who owns the season’s fastest 1,500 time at 4:02.43.

In the girls’ race, Roslyn junior Emily Lipari enters with the fastest prep time in the country this season, a 4:54.40 from the Hispanic Games. Thompson was right on Lipari’s heels in that race, clocking 4:55.65, and should be locking horns with the Long Islander once again. Emily Menges of Garden City will also be a factor, having dipped under 5 minutes (4:59.93) at Dartmouth Relays. All three – Lipari, Thompson and Menges – landed invitations to the Millrose girls’ mile. Jillian Smith of Southern Regional, the defending Millrose champ, is entered in the mile Saturday but is said to be bypassing the event to concentrate on the 4x800.

The New Balance meet also includes elite mile and 400-meter races for men and women.  Adding spice to the men's 400 is Seton Hall Prep's Clayton Parros, author of the No. 2 time (47.78) on the U.S scholastic indoor list this season. The men's mile features former Villanova ace Adrian Blincoe of New Zealand, who was runner-up last year, as well as 2003 champ James Thie of Great Britain and perennial contender Rob Myers. Heading the list of women's 400 entries is ex-Manhattan star Aliann Pompey, an Olympic semifinalist in Beijing..
