USATF U20 Championships: Marissa Sciotto shines in 10km racewalk!


What a great morning at Hayward Field! The weather was picture perfect, the sky an impossibly beautiful blue with no clouds, humidity low, temperatures in the comfortable high 50s/low 60s. Put it this way. I was comfortable wearing a flannel shirt in the shade. Marissa Sciotto had an excellent race. Competing at 10,000 meters for the first time, Marissa settled into a great rhythm and finished strong in seventh place in 56:47.98. She proved she belonged here, and she now has set her sights on bigger and better goals as she will attempt to move up in distance in the future. Our program continues to be a force in the close-knit racewalking community, where we have a reputation as a welcoming place for up-and-coming racewalkers. Coach Chuck Williams deserves all the credit for growing and nurturing this racewalking success, and we are hopeful to continue it for many more years. OK!
