Preview By Adam Kedge Participating Teams: Albuquerque Academy Chargers Los Alamos Hilltoppers Belen Eagles Capital Jaguars Cíbola Cougars Eldorado Eagles Highland Hornets La Cueva Bears Los Lunas Tigers Manzano Monarchs Sandia Matadors Rio Grande Ravens Sandia Prep Sundevils Santa Fe Demons Santa Fe St. Michael's Horsemen St Pius X Spartans Girls Relays and Sprints: When it comes to the relays the class of this meet is the La Cueva Bears. The Bears lead the metro-area in 3 of the 4 relays. One of the highlights for the relays should be the 4 x 100 where the Bears, the Cibola Cougars, and the Manzano Monarch are separated by only a couple tenths of a second. A late charge from freshman sensation Isis Wilson of Manzano (photo by Gary Murray) might be difference. Look for Albuquerque Academy to break up some of La Cueva dominance by contending for those 10 first place points in the medley relay (4:15.60). In the individual sprint events Isis Wilson (pictured above) of Manzano is the class of the field. She dominated the best in the state at Marilyn Sepulveda on April 9th. Her 11.93 / 25.28 seed times are tops. Girls Hurdles Alexandra Darling of La Cueva is Colorado State bound. Next spring she’ll provide the Rams with a multi-event threat. Before she goes expect Alex to compete well in a number of events during her final weeks as a prep. Here feature events are the hurdles and she leads the Albuquerque metro area by huge margins. Her 15.18 and 44.41 are marks that the Bears will count on to score well in this large invitational. Girls Jumps: Alexandra is not only a hurdler she is also the defending 5A state champ in the long jump. She has the top seed in that event (17’10). Other top seeds in the girls’ jumps are Lindsay Sheppard of Academy in the high jump (5’5), Asal Salehpour of La Cueva in the triple jump (36’5). Megan Economedes of La Cueva and Lauren Jaramillo of Manzano share the top mark in the pole vault at 9’3”. Girls Throws: She leads the metro area in the triple jump but her best events may be the throws. Asal Salehpour is another of La Cueva’s multi event weapons. A 106’4 discus and a 35’1 shot are the best entries in the meet. Asal did sit out the throws this past weekend at the Wildcat Relays in Clovis so her participation is in question this week. Without Asal the throws point could really be up for grabs. This is one set of events where the better kids in the state are not present. Girls Distance: The feature event in the girls distance races may be the 800 meters. It is highlighted by Marilyn Sepulveda champ Aleona Reyes of Belen with a time of 2:22.25. Aleona will have her hands full with Lyndsay Harper of Academy. The two did not meet at the Sepulveda Invite because Haper had just recently returned from Arcadia where she ran nearly 10 seconds faster than Reyes’ personal best. Lyndsay’s teammate freshman Paige Throckmorton just posted a 2:22.05 this past weekend and should figure into the results too. Do not count out Alex Darling in the 800 either. If Alex elects to run the middle distance event she can be right in the hunt. The 3200 is also an event to watch. In that race the fans will be treated to a showdown between 3A State XC champ Kate Norskog of St. Michael’s, 4A State XC champ Julia Foster (picture enclosed by Gary Murray) of Academy, and 5A State XC champ Rachel Velarde of Eldorado. Girls Teams: Last May the Clovis Wildcats were the best in the state. They are one of the few top rated teams from 2007 that will not be in attendance. Look for La Cueva to outdistance 5A foes Cibola and 2006 4A State champs Albuquerque Academy. 3A St. Michael’s is also in attendance but does not look to be a force against the larger schools. Boys Relays and Sprints: The Cibola Cougars come in to the meet with a seed time (3:23.14) that is faster than the current meet record in the 4 x 400 meter relay. That mark was run in the cool weather at the Wilson Relays in mid-March. Look for Cibola to better that and contend for the stadium record of 3:20.03 set nine years ago by la Cueva. The three other relays should be pretty evenly matched by Cibola, Los Alamos, La Cueva, and Eldorado. Individually, Eldorado has three different sprinters with top seed times in the shorter two of the sprint events. Cameron Flakes leads the 100 meters in 10.46 and Scott Johnson leads the 200 in 21.75. Curtis Beach (pictured below) ran 49.25 last weekend to take the metro lead in the 400. However, with a number of good events for the decathlete Beach’s entry in the 400 or any other event is pure speculation. Boys Hurdles: The highlight of the meet may be the showdown between super-star TX transfer senior Cameron Flakes of Eldorado and the “wonder-boy” sophomore Curtis Beach of Academy (picture left) by Gary Murray) . Right now Cameron holds the edge in the 110 HH (13.87 to 14.43) but Curtis holds the head to head showdown 1 to nil. At the very competitive Marilyn Sepulveda Invite a couple of weeks ago Curtis made up 8 meters late in the race to win the 300 IH by less than a tenth of a second (38.52 to 38.56). Boys Throws: Quad-zilla is coming!!! Alex Umstead of Los Alamos (Picture right by Blake Wood) will put a scare in the rest of the field. His impressive marks of 57’6 and 157’10” will be tested by Highland’s Jamil Wilson who has entry marks of 53’8 and 143’4. Los Alamos also has the top javelin entrant in sprinter / thrower combo Ruben Martinez. Ruben runs the 100 in 10.72, throws the shot in 49’4 and has a state’s 2nd best javelin throw at 175’4. Boys Jumps: Top seed mark for the high jump is Diego Rosado of Albuquerque Academy at 6’8. Academy’s Beach (22’10”) leads the long jump. Highlands Rolando Trammel leads the triple in 43’6 ¼”. And the pole vault meet the meet (15’0) and stadium (15’ 4 ¼ “) records by Ryan Ashcraft of La Cueva may be broken by junior Daniel Gooris of Cibola. Boys Distance: Last year it took 4:23 just to place in the 1600 meters at this meet. That was faster than the state results from both 4A and 5A. This spring it may not be as fast but will be close. Look for Benjo (Ben Johnson – Academy) and Kevin Burnett of St. Pius to battle for the top spot. If one of them falters Matt Everett of La Cueva and Dustin Martin of Academy should be right there. Matt Tebo of Eldorado set the meet record of 4:19.07 and that could be in jeopardy. The 3200 record of 9:26.30 by Shadrack Kiptoo may also go down if the wind does not blow. Boys Teams: The top 5A team thus far in 2007 may be the Alamogordo Tigers who recently won the wildcat Relays in Clovis last weekend. They will not be in attendance but there will be the defending 5A state champs La Cueva Bears in full strength. They will be tested by the deep and young Cibola Cougars and by the top two teams in 4A the Albuquerque Academy Chargers and the Los Alamos Hilltoppers. Southwest Region Home
