These are the days you dream about. When almost everything
falls into place and everything goes really well for your athletes. IC4As
indoors, Day 1, 2020 … will be a meet day that none of us will soon forget: Four school records (Glenmour Leonard-Osbourne, twice in the 60-meter dash,
once in the 200-meter dash) and the miraculous 4x800 relay team of Brendan
Dearie, Aidan Sweeney, Connor St. Germain and James Moehringer. Three
incredible, breakthrough performances at 5,000 meters: freshman Ramsey Little
vaulting all the way to 5th all time (14:30.35); junior Graham
Strzelecki zooming up to 7th all-time (14:34.13); senior Christopher
Rivas is now 15th in school history (14:46.97). Remarkably, none of
them actually “qualified” for this meet (standard is 14:45.00) but due to a new
policy in 2020 where the field was filled up to the first 32 declarations, they
were all given a chance at the race, and boy did they seize the day! The DMR
team that featured three freshmen and one very motivated junior (Young Cole
Ziskind, popping off with a 1:57.10 split) held their own among the big boys.
But again, the 4x800 … whoa! They nailed it, and in the process got the IC4A
outdoor qualifying mark out of the way, which is huge. And oh yeah, Ramsey and
Graham also took care of the outdoor IC4A qualifying mark for the 5km (standard
is 14:40.00).
Can you tell we’re excited? You BET we are! Sunday’s schedule
features Glen in the 60 dash final and Ramsey coming back for more, in the
first (unseeded) section of the 3,000-meter run.
