St. Christopher's Invitational

Wow, what a meet! Fifty + teams for a two day meet in Richmond. The boys from Greene did very well in the running events, hitting five Season Bests. Camron ran the 200 in 25.85 finishing 20th. Ryan PR'd in the 1000m, with a Regional Qualifying time of 2:39.84 (7th). Both boys ran relays, all SBs - Cam in the 4x2, 1:39.88 (31st), Ryan in the 4x8, 8:25.26 (7th), and Cam in the 4x4, 3:39.16 (16th). Cam had an off-meet jumping, with a 16'6.75" LJ and a 33'1" TJ. Congrats to both young men on their stellar running!

Yale Invitational

The boys traveled to Yale for a two day meet Jan. 21-22. Pictured is the Distance Medley Relay Team, touching the "lucky" toe of one of Yale's iconic statues.

Ryan ran the opening 1200m in 3:21, and handed the baton off to Camron for his 55.9 400m leg. Unfortunately, Adam was knocked down during the final 1600m, and the boys finished 10th with a 11:05.

Saturday, Ryan ran the mile, and set a PR of 4:35.64.

It was a great trip to New Haven, and fun was had by all.

Fred Hardy, Jr. Invitational

Saturday, Jan. 15th brought the Hardy Invitational, with 35 schools attending at the Fork Union Estes Center. The AHS boys finished 6th overall. Ryan medalled in his three events - the 4x800 (3rd), 1000m (3rd - PR 2:42.99) and 4x400 (6th). Camron placed 28th in the Long Jump, with a 16'8.75" effort. The 4x200 relay placed 10th, with Cam running the opening leg in under 25 seconds.

Fork Union Mini-Invite #3

On a snowy Friday night in January, the FUMA Mini-Invite was held, with 12 teams competing. Camron again did very well, with a SB (& I think PR) in the Long Jump. He placed 9th with a 17'-10.5" jump. Cam also rocked the Triple Jump with a 35'-8" effort to place 11th. He ran the 300m dash, and finished 19th with a time of 42.13. Camron was the first leg of the 4x200 relay, which placed fourth with a time of 1:42.54. Ryan ran two relays, the 4x800 and the 4x400. The relay team placed first in the 4X8. A dropped baton led to a disappointing 8th place finish in the 4x4. The boys return to FUMA this coming Saturday, with the Frank Hardy Invitational.
