Ricky Quintana's notes
The boys race had plenty of entrants, but no clear cut favorite.
Paul Cross (No. 1 on the right above) was making his 4th
appearance this season in the 1600m/mile having improved 14 seconds
in seven weeks, 26 seconds if you include his 4:12 relay split at
the Florida Relays last week. A.J. Wilson had run a 3:56.82 1500m,
the second
fastest time in the country. Behind them were a host of 4 upper
teen milers.
 |
At the gun, no one seemed to want to lead and
the pack slowed down the backstretch. Baska led, followed by
Wilson and Askew through the first lap in a 70.5 (408m) as the
pack trailed closely. Askew then took
the pace (left) as Wilson followed. |
|
At 600m, Wilson sling shotted past Askew
to a 5m lead and began to up the tempo. Miller followed and
Cross responded as they approached the 800m in 2:14. (right)
|
 |
Entering the last lap, Miller seized control and tried to steal
this one setting out on his own. Chiulli reacted chasing Miller
down the backstretch. Cross seemed content some 10m behind as Ciulli
and Miller battled it out on the final turn. But as has been the
case in his 1600m/mile races, Cross had another gear. He gathered
speed around the turn and by 150m he was in full flight.
|
Cross hit the head of the straight in lane
3 (below left). Chiulli tried to hold him off, but
Cross was too much. Cross’ last lap of 59 secured the
win in a personal best time.

|
|
Fuqua took the lead on the
backstretch but Collins moved up on the far turn (below)
and was fastest of all in the stretch.
