I like that, actually. That's pretty clever

I think that's Arcadia's motto.

Big Stizz will be in Virginia, so he's not racing.

I'm racing in the 800 and maybe one of the relays.

[CCBriggs1609]

We'll be there.
Im in the mile with Phillippo
Bumeister's in the deuce with Matt Coogan if you know him
Joe should be running eight
I hope were giving 4x8 another shot too, its a solid team.

[Wizardx]

Who will win the mile?

[Dan]

Who will win the mile?
A track nut from Brookline who has so many pairs of spikes he can't choose which one to race in. :p

Oh really?

[stizz]

Kevin Gill's got a good shot

yea the rest of wayland is coming however.

[Wizardx]

Kevin Gill's got a good shot

He's a sophomore... freshman/sophomore meet? And is Brockton even going?

If Haverhill's Fullerton is running it, I bet he'll be a strong favorite.

[AsthenicAthlete]

If Haverhill's Fullerton is running it, I bet he'll be a strong favorite. Some Brockton kids are going to the F/S meet, but Kevin is going to Weston.

[CCBriggs1609]

Sound like it will be good competition
Good for everyone to run fast.
Mile is first I think-5:00

[Wizardx]

Apparently: Matias, Gill...

Fullerton? Longo? Polgar? Ford?

[xcrunna]

Polgar'll win easily...but I'm not 100% sure he'll be running the mile cuz i haven't been paying attention, but I bet him or Evan Morse(9:54 2 mile today) will be running it and I wouldn't bet against either of them
Anyone running the 800 btw?

[300kicks]

Who's running the 2mile? Morris , Pedi, CMass going to show? Cunningham, Boone,??? Anyone going sub 9:40? :confused:

[Wizardx]

Polgar or Evan Morse will be running it and I wouldn't bet against either of them

Polgar is legit. But I would bet against Morse.

[xcrunna]

As it turns out Polgar is running the 800(taking away my chances of winning that) but Evan is running the mile according to polgar, and wizard we'll see if he's legit come saturday night
Edit: Wiz I have a feeling you think gill is gonna beat Morse

[Wizardx]

"...Brockton, Brookline ... Haverhill ... Newton North, Newton South..."

So, no Morris, Longo, Ballenthin, Amirault, Barnicle (I'm assuming), Gagnon, or Polgar.

Narrows it down to Gill, Matias, Fullerton, Morse, and Clifbar.


One of the sophs will take it.

[Wizardx]

Edit: Wiz I have a feeling you think gill is gonna beat Morse

It's more I think Morse isn't gonna win.

[CCBriggs1609]

Who's running the 2mile? Morris , Pedi, CMass going to show? Cunningham, Boone,??? Anyone going sub 9:40? :confused:

Bumeister is running the deuce from CC-His PR from last year is 9:53
Also-Who is clifbar and where is he from?

[Wizardx]

Who is clifbar and where is he from?

:)

[Dalau]

Clifbar could lay down a pretty nasty 400. I don't know of anyone else that is so good that they can look at their watch to get their 200m split during the race.

Cliffy's hit the big time tho, he was in the Newton Tab which specifically cited his 5:12 1600 split at state relays. Way to go cliffy!

[Crouching tiger]

Narrows it down to Gill, Matias, Fullerton, Morse, and Clifbar.


Matias? Are you serious? Has he ever broken 4:40?

[stizz]

Matias? Are you serious? Has he ever broken 4:40?
yes, his best is 4:32

[Chasing928]

Bumeister is running the deuce from CC-His PR from last year is 9:53


I'm not hating or anything, but 953 isn't that great. I remember him being a beast in xc, though. Should be a good race.

[Crouching tiger]

yes, his best is 4:32

I'll have to take your word for it, because I haven't seen anything too close to that from him before. I did find a 4:38 at a December 16 dual meet, but everything since seems to be slower (4:44 20th place at indoor Elite meet; 4:47 26th place at indoor D1 meet). I've got to believe he won't be anywhere near the winner at the end and probably won't crack 4:40.

[CCBriggs1609]

yore right, (:53 is not that great at this meet, but I was trying to say that he could wreck that because this is his first race this year without doubling and with competition. I think He'll touch that up.

[Wizardx]

no matias can be odd sometimes. like hes a really good runner and all, a 432 is a very strong time but he can be up and down. if hes on ill put my money on a 4:36/4:37. but when hes off hes off. he works hard though gotta give him some credit, like sh** he trains with barnicle.(word on the street)

What the hell did you just say?

[BrooklineMiler]

Ran 4:41 freshman year
4:32 sof get off my nuts crouchin tiga

[clifbar]

What? They wrote about my ****tiest race this season! There was something about me taking 2nd against Weston in the 2 mile during our Dual Meet in the Daily News Tribune.

[tayls24]

I fully intend to cut that 9:53.8 down considerably. 9:40 perhaps? This will be my first race of the season with a solid pack to pull me along, so I really don't know what I can do.

[Wizardx]

Forecast for Saturday is rain, wind, and more rain.

[stizz]

I just found out the sickest thing ever. I'm staying in Reston, VA this weekend, and I plan on getting a speed workout in on the nearest high school track. So guess where that is. South Lakes High School.

[Wizardx]

South Lakes High School.

Heyyyy, didn't Babe Ruth play baseball there?

[Ecliptica]

Nope, but I'm pretty sure Grant Hill played basketball there (he was from Reston). Good to know that a town in the middle of nowhere can have such a legend emerge from the school.

[stizz]

You guys are funny.

[W.E.]

...Good to know that a town in the middle of nowhere can have such a legend emerge from the school.

Actually Reston, Herndon, Centerville, etc. represent a cluster of small communities not unlike that on the South Shore or the region with Brockton/Bridgewater/Silver Lake, etc. Webb and Rickey Harris could have been neighbors!

Woohoo! Bridgewater!

[Crouching tiger]

Ran 4:41 freshman year
4:32 sof get off my nuts crouchin tiga

Anything close to that since? Junior year? Senior year? I'm just not feelin it.

[stizz]

I dare you to say that to Matias' face. Hopefully a man named Roman is standing right next to him.

What's your problem?

[Dalau]

With a 4:40 and 10:03 double, I'd say you have a legit shot at 9:40.

[Emil's Ghost]

Weather forecast is calling for 42 degrees, steady rain, and strongs winds (20 +mph). I'll be surprised to see a lot of PRs in the distance events.

[stizz]

What's your problem?
What's yours?

[Wizardx]

I bet the meet is cancelled.

[zackxc]

I bet the meet is cancelled.

the odds are leaning towards that so you wouldn't win much money

[Dan]

If the meet is rained out, it could be held on Sunday May 7th, which is Mother's Day, or on May 21st, which is the same day as the South Shore Principals meet.

[heatripping]

its off for today

im pretty sure its gonna be in two weeks, sat after the plymouth south invitational

[msweenz]

I hope they don't have it in 2 weeks. That's the date of a lot of league champion ship meets, including the MVC Championship Meet. They'll most likely be missing a lot of competition if they move it until then. Hopefully they'll make it for either tomorrow, which I assume is highly unlikely, or Monday.

[Dan]

MWeekdays are bad days for invitationals, especially this week, since some people are still taking APs.

[msweenz]

Oh yeah, APs. I completely forgot about those. Yeah, but it still sucks that Weston is going to lose a fair amount of competition.

[Dan]

I guess you'll have to decide which meet is more important to you. :p

[CCBriggs1609]

Lets get this started again-the meet is this weekend.
I know CC will still be going-who else?

[clifbar]

NS will be there, I'll be in the two-mile... Anyone else running it?

[Dalau]

any results?

[clifbar]

1 Lau, Daniel Newton South 2:02

[Dalau]

"Daniel". haha.

[Dalau]

bump.
Does anybody have the rsults from this meet? I searched everywhere and emailed the Weston HS Athletic Director, but he never emailed back.

[Wizard]

That's because the meet probably never happened and, as a result, there was no winner.

[Emil's Ghost]

The meet happened. After being postponed once for bad weather it was rescheduled for the weekend before the Class meets (I believe). Once again the conditions were terrible, with a cold drenching rain falling for most of the meet. Many teams and athletes never showed up. Toward the end of the meet, no one wanted to stick around.

It's too bad that the results aren't available anywhere.

[Wizard]

The meet happened.

:rolleyes:

Joke because Dalau was the one that won?

[clifbar]

Yah, lau beasted that one. I however, could do without having to see the results again (11:01 2-mile).

[AzN at LARGE]

Weird to see him referred to as anything besides Dalau. When I met his I was confused as to what to call him.

[clifbar]

When I met his I was confused as to what to call him.Haha, when I first saw you I didn't know what to call you other than "Asian", but we couldn't really call that out at Boston Indoor Games because people would probably think we were racist...

[AzN at LARGE]

Haha, for future reference I sometimes go by Ken.

[chrisdiaz16]

Freshmen and Sophomores--
