3mi, and jr Casey Nevitt won the girls race by 50 seconds
in 18:12.
- Canyon CA swept team time honors in the

Locker Favorite Jameson Mora's 14:43, best time of

FLF Nikki Bohnsack's 18:47 5k. The next four runners,
all Rockford, were Brittinie Ogden 19:12, Kristie Powers 19:18.5,

- FLF Liza Pasciuto, Murrieta Valley CA

-
Karen Pulliam of Maryland,
a DyeStat Foot Locker
Favorite, ran 25th 9/8 in the Peter Geraghty Invitational
at Mount St. Mary's University. Bad performance? No -- Karen
had arthroscopic surgery on both heels to remove bone spurs
just 2 weeks earlier. Her dad tried to talk her out of running,
but she said she would run just as far in a workout anyway.
-
DyeStat mentioned US#1 girls
team Saratoga Springs' "incredible depth" at
the Great Race of the Great Bay in San Francisco. So a Saratoga
track parent sharpened his pencil and added the Saratoga JV
and Freshman/Soph times to the 45 varsity team times. Figured
this way, Saratoga would have placed 1st, 12th, and 15th.
-
The
Swain Family owns the Monroe Parker
Invitational in Virginia. Lake Braddock jr Kelly Swain
won this year's meet 9/5 in 18:10 over the 2.98 Burke Lake course.
Kelly also won the meet last year and older sister Erin, former
Foot Locker finalist now at North Carolina State, won in 1999.
-
Erika Odlaug
is really enjoying the 2.5 mile course at Lakewood Forest Preserve
in Wauconda IL. First she ran 14.34 to take 26 seconds off the
old course record held by former Foot Locker finalist Victoria
Jackson. Then she came back 9/5 and ran 18 seconds faster at
14:16 to win the Art Campbell Invitational by more than 2 minutes
over Katie Birn, who was 6th in the 2000 Illinois AA state meet.
-
DaBryan Blanton,
US#1 in both the 100 and 200 last spring, used his speed on
the football field Friday 9/7 to run 287 yards on 13 carries
in a 72-23 romp by Forney TX, which is #1 in the Dallas Morning
News 3A rankings. The DyeStat All American got all of his yards
in the first half with touchdown runs of 78, 59, 41, 41 and
16 yards. That wasn't even a PR game for Blanton; 2 years ago
he gained 38l yards in one game.
-
Angela Homan,
Spencerville OH senior, won the Columbus Grove Invitational
9/1 in a swift 17.56 (5k).
