Sorry for the delay in posting this stuff.
Congrats to pole vaulter Max Carow for his outdoor SR in the first meet. Max's dedication to his event is amazing. He and Justine Colabraro have been driving down to the "Pole Vault Barn" in Warwick, paying $30 to use that excellent facility run by the Warwick coach Tim St. Lawrence. For both of them, the results are obvious after each trip to The Barn. Again, that shows some serious dedication, and we appreciate it.
Anyway, here are the complete results, with splits where appropriate.

800-meter run
John Carabetta 2:04.65
Colin Frederickson 2:09.32
1,500-meter run
Nick Webster 4:04.90. Personal-best time
Splits: 63, 2:09 (66), 3:16 (67), 4:04.90 (last lap, 64.90). Comment: Nicely done for a steepler/long distance man. Great PR.
Colin Johnson 4:05.78. HUGE personal-best time
Splits: 63, 2:09 (66), 3:17 (68), 4:05.78 (last lap, 65.78). Comment: Holy schmokes! I would say the best breakthrough performance of your career, which has been filled with them. Nicely done!!
Curtis Jensen 4:07.65. Personal-best time
Splits: 64, 2:09 (65), 3:16 (67), 4:07.68 (last lap, 67.68). Comment: I know you weren't happy with this, but remember we are pointing toward the 5km. Basically, you don't have great miler turnover at the end of these races. This is not a big deal, and we can work on it. You are an even-split kind of guy. That works well for 5km. Just wait and see.
Kyle Havard 4:11.13. Personal-best time
Splits: 65, 2:12 (67), 3:20 (68), 4:11.13 (didn't get final 400m split). Comment: A solid, decent effort. Nothing special, good start to the season. Will get faster, much faster.
John Keenan 4:13.33.
Splits: 65, 2:13 (68), 3:23 (70), 4:13.33 (didn't get final 400m split). Comment: Blah. Especially the 70. Big blah. No biggie. This was a workout-type day for you. You must get much faster, very soon. You will.
Conor Shelley 4:13.63.
Splits: 63, 2:11 (68), 3:20 (69), 4:13.63 (didn't get final 400m split). Comment: Started out too fast! That's OK. I have faith this time will come down a lot. KEEP WORKING HARD AND BELIEVING.
Trevor Thomas 4:27.88.
Splits: 67, 2:16 (69), 3:29 (73), 4:27.88 (last lap, 76.88). Comment: Not great, but you gotta start somewhere!
Mike Holinko 4:49.24.
Splits: 70, 2:24 (74), 3:45 (81), 4:49.24 (last lap, 85.24). Comment: Started out good and went south in a hurry.
3,000 steeplechase
Kris Geist 10:17.14.
Splits: 77, 2:35 (78), 3:57 (82), 5:19 (82), 6:16 (85), 8:12 (86), 9:35 (83), 10:17.14. Comment: It's not often that I laugh at my athletes while they are racing, but during this one I couldn't help but giggle as you stumbled over the barrier right in front of me, just as I was gonna say "good job" or something. But here's the thing: This WAS a good job and other than some rocky form (understandable for your first steeple), you competed well from start to finish. I liked what I saw. Nicely done.
Greg Masto 10:34.38.
Splits: 76, 2:37 (81), 3:59 (82), 5:25 (86), 6:54 (89), 8:22 (88), 9:50 (88), 10:34.38. Comment: You started way too darn fast. But this was your best season-opening effort in your three years at Marist. Your form was decent for the first meet. Like Geist, I liked what I saw. Let's build on it.
5,000-meter run (NOTE: Thanks to Geist for writing the splits down for me as my digits were starting to get cold as the wind and dark descended on Shea Stadium ...)
David Raucci 15:11.11
Splits: 73, 2:29 (76), 3:34 (74), 4:58 (75), 6:12 (74), 7:24 (72), 8:38 (74), 9:52 (74), 11:07 (75), 12:18 (71), 13:29 (71), 14:39 (71), 15:11.11 (32.11). Comment: Your dad had you at 63 for the final 400m. That's really good! You looked strong and in control the entire way, indicating your fitness but not necessarily your speed at this point. Thus, 10km next meet. Let's make this a fun outdoor season!
Zak Smetana 15:47.58
Splits: 71, 2:27 (76), 3:41 (74), 4:55 (74), 6:11 (76), 7:27 (76), 8:43 (76), 10:00 (77), 11:19 (79), 12:38 (79), 13:55 (77), 15:10 (75), 15:47.58 (37.58). Comment: A bit uneven but a solid first effort of the season.
Joe McElhoney 15:51.65
Splits: 72, 2:28 (76), 3:43 (75), 4:58 (75), 6:11 (73), 7:24 (73), 8:39 (75), 9:55 (76), 11:13 (78), 12:32 (79), 13:52 (80), 15:12 (80), 15:51.65 (39.65). Comment: Gotta start somewhere! I think you are more fit than this, but you showed some "race rust" as a result of these splits. You need to be a quick study, as this is a short season. I'm confident you'll get it together and race fast soon.
Alex Emerel 16:07.85
Splits: 72, 2:27 (75), 3:41 (74), 4:55 (74), 6:11 (76), 7:28 (77), 8:46 (78), 10:06 (80), 11:26 (80), 12:47 (81), 14:08 (81), 15:29 (81), 16:07.85 (78.85). Comment: Started fine, but the last 2km was not good at all!
Ryan Brown 16:27.91, personal-best time
Splits: 79, 2:37 (78), 3:56 (79), 5:15 (79), 6:34 (79), 7:55 (81), 9:15 (80), 10:35 (80), 11:55 (80), 13:16 (81), 14:35 (79), 15:51 (76), 16:27.91 (36.91). Comment: Outstanding first effort at this distance. I was very happy with this effort. Next time, we just have to minimize the 80s and 81s. Otherwise, great effort.
10,000-meter run

Splits: 85, 2:46 (81), 4:06 (80), 5:26 (80), 6:45 (79), 8:06 (81), 9:24 (78), 10:42 (78), 12:00 (78), 13:20 (80), 14:39 (79), 15:59 (80), 17:20 (81), 18:39 (79), 19:58 (79), 21:17 (79), 22:37 (80), 24:00 (83), 26:43 (83), 28:08 (85), 29:31 (83), 30:55 (84), 32:17 (82), 33:32.44 (75.44). First 5km: 16:38; second 5km: 16:54.44. Comments: Very uneven first race, which is exactly why we did it. Didn't take much out of you, and you'll be ready for the next one, I'm certain of that.

Splits: 85, 2:45 (80), 4:06 (81), 5:26 (80), 6:45 (79), 8:06 (81), 9:24 (78), 10:42 (78), 11:59 (77), 13:16 (77), 14:35 (79), 15:56 (81), 17:17 (81), 18:39 (82), 20:02 (83), 21:24 (82), 22:48 (84), 24:11 (83), 25:36 (85), 27:00 (84), 28:23 (83), 29:47 (84), 31:11 (84), 32:33 (82), 33:55.24 (82.55). First 5km: 16:34; second 5km: 17:21.24. Comment: Like Duggan, I'm glad you got this nonsense out of the way and now you'll know how to race better next time. And you will!
