Staten Island NYC – Once again our annual trek to this great facility yielded lots of PRs as well as a couple of big wins. One would not be surprised to find ‘I ♥ NY’ bumper stickers on the cars of both Grayson Ruffner and Dom Sheppard. Ruffner’s three races in NY included two wins… Read More
Since breaking the indoor school record for 3000m, Grayson Ruffner has made his mark in both the 800 and mile qualifying for the state meet and closing in on two more school records. Last Sunday (1/14) up at the Kristian Marche Memorial meet in NYC, he won the 800 going away while posting the top… Read More
The past few weeks have come and gone so fast, it’s hard to keep up! So how ’bout a re-cap? Our duals have been close, dropping another to Hatboro 89 – 61 and beating a sprint talented Abington team 83-67 (thanks, field guys!) Prepping for the Penn Relays freshman 4×1 (and since we really don’t… Read More
Lansdale, Pa. – With our first dual meet moved and our inter-squad meet rained out last Saturday, it’s been a month of practices without a competition. We needed this to test our newbies and to see where our returnees stood. Early afternoon showers gave way to sunny skies by 2 o’clock. Medals were hard to… Read More
Rauch Fieldhouse Lehigh – Lehigh has a meet today (Sat), so we were pushed to Friday night. With both divisions competing, we were in for a late one. (Got back to Wiss around midnight…) Some good performances, along with minor improvements, means we’re doing something right. Looking forward to getting the 4×8 to states, (Ruffner… Read More
Four meets are in the books so let’s take a look at what we have. The distance crew is coming along and looks to be the best shot to take a relay team to States. Four guys are returning from sub-2:05 outdoor seasons led by Junior Grayson Ruffner (1:59.23 PR). So far, he’s gone 2:02… Read More
With Isaiah Marc’s injury from Penn Relays on our minds, we/he scratched out of the 100 for safety concerns and out of the 400 for fitness concerns. That left the 200. As the pre-lims approached on Friday afternoon, apparently lightning showed up on someone’s radar (we didn’t see it) and they called off the race,… Read More
If you’ve been following along, it’s no surprise that we didn’t have high hopes for a team title. Before I start though, got to give it to the winners: HH won 11 out of the 18 events to our none. That being said, we took away a few small victories. Relays – 4×800 On paper,… Read More
The expression ‘when it rains, it pours’ thankfully didn’t describe the weather as we dodged Friday and Saturday’s storm bullet. It did, however, describe the injury count. After a solid Penn Relays (49.22 4×4 anchor) Chase Bethea (300H) crashed into the 7th hurdle, barely cleared the 8th, dragged himself across the finish and went down… Read More
