Dawkins' 40-9.75 triple jump
at the New Balance Games makes her the first over 40 feet
this year. It would make her 17th best prep girl indoors
ever, except for the fact that she already ranks 7th best
with her 41-8.5 mark last year.
Dawkins now has the best two
triple jumps and the best two 55 meter hurdle times (8.07
twice) of the season. She also takes her turn on relays
for New Rochelle, one of the top girls teams in the nation.
A senior, she has not made
a college choice yet.

Dalpiaz dominated a good field
in the New Balance Games mile, ending a 3-week streak that
stamped him the hottest distance runner in the country.
- Jan 5 - Hispanic Games - 4:16.71 mile,
US#2
- Jan 12 - Stanner Games - 9:00.25 3200m,
US#1
- Jan 19 - New Balance Games - 4:17.03
mile, 3rd fastest of the season
Brian has made it look easy,
and he keeps saying he hasn't run his best race. So, keep
an eye on him February 1 at the Millrose Games, when he heads
a field of 9 standouts in the high school boys mile.
