Michael Barbas TX 66-3, Karen Shump PA 52-4

| Big PR wins it for Texan
by Pete Cava, NSSF
Michael Barbas (Jersey Village, Houston, Texas) upped his career best to 66-3 to finish first in the shot.
Barbas bested a pair of better-publicized contestants, Michael Carter Jr. (Red Oak, Texas), and Brandon Pounds (Indianapolis, Ind.),. Carter's father was the 1984 Olympic shot put silver medalist, while Pounds led the nation's preps earlier this season with a throw of 64-9.5.
Barbas took over the lead in the second round with a 62-8.75 effort and improved to 64-6.75 on his fourth throw. His big heave came in the fifth round.
Carter's best mark, 62-5.25, came in the fifth round while Pounds had a 62-3.75 in the third round.
| Shump wins shootout with O'Brien
by Elliot Denman, NSSF
Just as expected, this was a Karen Shump-Becky O’Brien shootout. These long-term rivals, both seniors, came to Landover owning the top five throws in the nation between them and went at it from the start.
O’Brien, of Cumberland, Maine, unleashed a 51-5 toss in round one and it would hold up as her best of the day.
Meanwhile, Shump, of Media, Pa., was warming to the challenge, reaching 50-4 ½ in round two and the eventual winner of 52-4 in the fifth round. And she wrapped it all up with a round-six 51-8 ¼.
Frederick, Md.’s Emily Vannoy reached 46-4 ¾ for third and Toms River North, NJ’s Maureen Laffan was fourth at 44-8.
“Our little rivalry has been good for both of us,” said the University of Oklahoma-bound Shump. “People started paying attention to the shot put for a change.
“I wasn’t concerned about having to come from behind. I was always confident.”
Red Oak, Texas’ Michelle Carter commands the all-time charts – the 54-9 ½ bomb she delivered at NIN 2003 is both the meet and national record. But Shump now ranks third and O’Brien fifth on the all-time NIN list.
