I was in the race and it was close between Chaminade and Farrell (both were around 8:05), not sure who was third (transit tech?) in about 8:09, Somers was 8:12, and Collegiate 8:13.

I'm not sure about the time, but Dan Lewis of Farrell won with Viglione of Somers a couple of seconds back.

I found this on another site regarding the Friday section of the NY Relays. I was at the new stadium Friday and have to agree 100% with all that is below. I wasnot there Sat and have no clue if the meet was run any better, I can only hope so.

From the Let's Run messageboard:

"I was at the NY Relays yesterday and in many ways the whole show is what is wrong with T&F in the USA

1- No order of events/programs/heat sheets/list of entries when you arrive

2- Nice Jumbotron/scoreboard - showing people in stands or on sidelines and not the action. No results posted on the board or heat sheets

3- Why did they not let anybody sit within 50m of the finishline?

4- No posted results

5- Field event results announced in metric - what fan knows what those mean?

6- Why did they run back to back heats of the mens 400 with just 1 runner in each. If they had a heat of the 1500 scratch down to 1 or 2 runners they would not run it, they would blend them into a diff heat, so why make a sprinter run a time-trial?

7- No annoucements of what was going on in field events

8- No announcement of on the way splits in races 800+

An amazing facility, but meet management needs lots of work"

What fan? I don't know. But this was a college/open meet, too, not just a HS meet, and NCAA, USATF, and IAAF all use metric for the field events.

This is true but there is nothing in the rules that says the results can not be announced in feet & inches.
