more victories: 4x1600 relay in 21:32.96 and distance medley in
12:10.22. Birchmont Park doubled in the distance medley in 10:08.14.
Individually, Rockford's male star, Dathan Ritzenhein, moved
front and center. After warming up with a sub-2:00 anchor for
Rockford's second place 4x800 relay (7:52.60), Ritz destroyed the 3200
meter field with a time of 8:41.10. That converts to a 2-mile time
of 8:44.5, best in the nation this year (See TidBits
for Donald Sage's US#2 time, also Friday night.) Ritz was 15
seconds ahead of runner-up Steve Padgett, of Cincinnati OH Lasalle.
Ritz' splits:
400m: 65 seconds
800m: 2:10
1600m: 4:19
Ritzenhein had two more anchors before his night's work was done.
He anchored the 4x1600 relay that Rockford won in 17:58.28, and the
distance medley.
Birchmont Park doubled in the distance medley in 10:08.14 over Rockford 10:14.79.
