Clutch vaulting gives Oakcrest’s Ryan Merlino 4th place at Meet of Champions!!!!!!

Oakcrest junior Ryan Merlino did some clutch last-attempt pole vaulting Sunday, clearing 14-0 and 14-6 on his final attempts on his way to 4th place at the 55th annual Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

Merlino took a whopping 15 jumps, clearing 12-0 on his 2nd attempt, 12-6 on his 1st, 13-0 on his 2nd, 13-6 on his 1st and then 14-0 and 14-6 on his 3rd. He took three tries at 15-0. Hunterdon Central senior Damian Scouloukas won the event at 15-0 (and also won the triple jump in a crazy and unprecedented double).

Merlino moved into a tie for the No. 13 mark in South Jersey history and No. 2 in Atlantic County history, behind only Absegami’s Brandon Kurtz, who cleared 14-6 ¼ in 1991 (and for the life of me I can’t find what meet).

Merlino is the first Oakcrest boy to medal at the indoor Meet of Champions since 2013, when Chase Toliver took 2nd in the hurdles in 7.54, Ishmael Muhammad placed 4th in the 800 in 1:53.68 and Daniel Jefferson was 4th in the high jump with a 6-4.

Last spring, Merlino had a 13-6 clearance at the Atlantic County Championships at Buena, but that was the only meet he cleared 12-0 or better. This year, he’s been a model of consistency, clearing 14 feet or better seven times, including his last six meets.

He’s the No. 1 underclassman in the state this year and the top South Jersey junior since Delsea twins Nico (15-6) and Marco (15-0) Morales in 2019.

Merlino is entered in the “Rising Stars” division of the pole vault at Boston Nationals. He’ll jump at 9 a.m. Saturday at the new facility known as The TRACK at the Boston Landing complex in Brighton, Mass.

The only other underclassman in the top eight was Willingboro junior Jackson Murry, who cleared 13-6 on his first attempt. That’s an indoor and outdoor PR for Murry.

With #7 time in South Jersey history, Kelsey Niglio leads three S.J. girls in top 8 in Meet of Champions 800!!!!!!

Cherokee senior Kelsey Niglio raced her way into the all-time South Jersey top-10 in the 800 Sunday at the Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

Niglio placed 4th in 2:14.27, fastest by any South Jersey half-miler indoors in 10 years, since Lenape’s Carly Pettipaw ran 2:14.12 at the 2012 state Group 4 meet at the Bubble, where she placed 2nd to Columbia’s Olivia Baker.

Niglio’s time is No. 7 in South Jersey history, No. 4 in Burlington County history and not far from Monica Olkowski’s hallowed school record of 2:12.46 from the 1990 Meet of Champions at Jadwin Gym, which stood as the South Jerey record until Olympian Erin Donohue of Haddonfield ran 2:10.0 at the 2001 Varsity Classic at ther Armory.

It’s also fastest by a South Jersey half-miler at the indoor Meet of Champions since another Lenape runner, Emily Duffey, ran 2:13.51 to win the 2011 meet at the Bubble.

Niglio ran 2:11.80 last spring at the state Group 4 meet at Franklin, finishing 2nd to teammate Nicole Clifford, who ran 2:11.12. But her indoor PR before Sunday was 2:15.73 from last year’s Meet of Champions, when she was 5th.

Mainland sophomore Sofia Day and Camden Catholic senior Leah Clear made it three South Jersey girls on the medal stand. Day placed 7th in 2:17.23 and Clear was 8th in 2:18.57, her 3rd straight PR race.

Day and Clear have both had terrific breakthrough seasons. Day never ran anything shorter than 3,200 meters as a freshman, and Clear hadn’t broken 2:29 before this winter.

This was the first time in 13 years three South Jersey girls placed in the top eight in a Meet of Champions 800. In the 2010 race, Washington Township’s Megan Tiernan won in 2:11.53, Delsea’s Felicia O’Donnell placed 6th in 2:17.72, Seneca’s Mary Bohi was 7th in 2:17.86 and Willingboro’s Patrice Rowe placed 8th in 2:18.58.

A legendary sprint double for Pennsauken’s Premier Wynn at Meet of Champs!!!!!!

His sister is one of the top sprinters in the country. His teammate is one of the fastest quarter-milers and intermediate hurdles in the country. So it’s easy to lose sight of just what a remarkable season Premier Wynn is having in his own right.

But he sure is.

Wynn was a double winner at the Meet of Champions Sunday at Ocean Breeze, taking 1st in the 200 in 21.75 – No. 3 in South Jersey history, No. 16 in state history – and running a blazing 47.53 third leg on Pennsauken’s winning 1,600-meter relay team, which ran the No. 11 time in U.S. history.

He’s the 8th South Jersey boy in the meet’s 55-year history to win an individual event and run a leg on a winning relay team, following Brian Bennett and Lee Jerkins of Edgewood in 1985, Lamont Smith of Willingboro in 1991, Rob Gary of Lenape in 1998, Danye Brown of Edgewood in 1999, Mohamad Kanu of Lenape in 2000 and Darnell Charles of Oakcrest in 2012.

BLISTERING LEGS BY PREMIER WYNN & BRYCE TUCKER LEAD PENNSAUKEN TO ALL-TIME U.S. #11 4X400 IN RIVETING MEET OF CHAMPIONS SHOWDOWN WITH SETON HALL PREP!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for the 200, Wynn won the seeded section decisively, finishing five meters ahead of the field, and 2nd through 5th place all came from a fast 4th heat. Cole Cramer of Southern Regional wound up 2nd in 22.12 out of the 4th heat. So Wynn wasn’t pushed in his one-lapper at Ocean Breeze.

This was only the 10th time the 200 has been contested at a Meet of Champions, but Wynn’s time is 2nd-fastest ever, behind only the meet-record 21.68 set in 2020 by Shamali Whittle of Nottingham, who went on to win Armory Nationals last year.

The only faster indoor 200 times in South Jersey history were recorded by Washington Township’s Todd Dutch [21.62 at 2002 Easterns at Princeton’s Jadwin Gym] and Woodbury’s Darrell Bush [21.53 at 2012 Easterns at the Armory in the only indoor 200 he ever ran].

Wynn actually broke the Camden County record in the trials at Easterns last week when he ran 21.77. That broke the county mark of 21.82 set in the prelims of the 2018 Armory Nationals by Paul VI’s Antonio Tarantino. So he broke that record for a second time in five days.

Wynn will race the open 200 at Boston Nationals this weekend and also run on Pennsauken’s 4-by-4 with freshman Ka’Ron Ali, junior Ladanian McGrath and Tucker and on the sprint medley with junior Elijah Jennings and Bronze Whitmore as well as Tucker anchoring.

The Norfolk State-bound Wynn has run 48.45 for 400 meters this winter – tied for No. 5 in state history. He’s only the 5th sprinter in New Jerey history to run sub-22 and sub-48.5 indoors:

Two more Cape May County records for Ocean City junior Sophia Curtis at Meet of Champions!!!!!!

Ocean City junior Sophia Curtis broke two more Cape May County records Sunday at the Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

And they were both her own.

Curtis placed 2nd in the triple jump with a 38-8 and ran 8.33 in the trials before placing 6th in the 55-meter hurdles final.

Curtis, in her first year at Ocean City after beginning her high school career at Padua Academy in Wilmington, Del., held the previous county marks of 38-6 from a meet in February at Ocean Breeze and 8.42 from the state Group 2 meet last month at the Bubble.

Although she was already No. 2 in South Jersey history in the triple jump, she improved on her No. 2 ranking behind only Atlantic City’s Claudine Smith, who jumped 40-1 ½ at 2019 Armory Nationals.

According to the MileSplit U.S. rankings, Curtis is the No. 8 junior in the country with her 38-8.

Curtis went 37-5 on her first two jumps and then fouled before popping the 38-8 on her final attempt.

Curtis does have a slightly longer outdoor triple jump on her resume from last spring, when she hit 38-8 ¾ at the Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association Meet of Champions at Salesianum.

Curtis is also the Cape May County record holder in the 400 with a 57.99 from the state Group 2 meet.

At Boston Nationals this weekend, Curtis will triple jump and anchor an Ocean City shuttle hurdles team that also includes senior Elaina Styer, sophomore Annamaria Marczyk and freshman Callie Duff.

Curtis is the first Ocean City girl to place at Meet of Champions since 2014, when Rachel Stremme placed 4th in the 800 in 2:09.84 and Devon Grisbaum ran 6th in the 3,200 in 10:39.15.

She’s the first Ocean City girl to finish in the top eight in two events in the same Meet of Champions since Abbey Hartman took 2nd in the 3,200 in 11:09.81 and 8th in the 1,600 in 5:21.88 in 1997.

And her 2nd place in the triple jump is the 2nd-best finish ever by a Red Raider, behind only Grisbaum’s 10:45.20 win in the 3,200 in 2015.

BLISTERING LEGS BY PREMIER WYNN & BRYCE TUCKER LEAD PENNSAUKEN TO ALL-TIME U.S. #11 4X400 IN RIVETING MEET OF CHAMPIONS SHOWDOWN WITH SETON HALL PREP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mind-blowing 3rd and 4th legs by Premier Wynn and Bryce Tucker made up a 25-meter deficit on the No. 1 team in the country and Pennsauken ran the 11th-fastest time in U.S. indoor track  history Sunday at the 55th annual Meet of Champions 1,600-meter relay at Ocean Breeze

In one of the greatest performances in South Jersey track history, freshman KaRon Ali, junior Ladanian McGrath, Wynn and Tucker ran 3:15.83 in the final event of the 55th annual Meet of Champions, finishing eight meters ahead of top-seeded, U.S. No. 1 and New Jersey state record holder Seton Hall Prep of West Orange.

Seton Hall Prep broke Camden’s 22-year-old state record of 3:15.78 at the Armory last month when they ran 3:15.73 at the Millrose Games.

That’s No. 9 in U.S. indoor track history.

They were the top seed in the Meet of Champions by seven seconds over Ocean Township, and Pennsauken was the No. 4 seed with its 3:24.47 at the state Group 3 meet at the Bubble.

But Pennsauken was ready.

Ali opened with a 51.67, and even though Seton Hall Prep leadoff Ryan Matulonis got the Pirates out hot with a 48.35 split, Ali kept the Indians in the race with a terrific leadoff leg for a freshman. McGrath split 50.43, and at the second handoff Pennsauken was in 3rd in the five-team final section (but behind the pace of three schools from the fourth section).

That’s when Wynn – who had won the 200 in 21.75 – got the stick. He passed Toms River North’s third runner Jameel Matthews with 100 to go along the far straight and immediately began making up ground on Seton Hall Prep’s Xavier Donaldson, the 2nd-fastest quarter-miler in the U.S. this year, Donaldson, who had edged Tucker in the 400 in 47.35, split 48.91, but Wynn split 47.53, trimming Seton Hall Prep’s lead to 12 meters.

That set up Tucker, the two-time Meet of Champions intermediate hurdles winner coming off his South Jersey-record 47.50 in the open 400. Tucker ran patiently and smartly, gradually closing on Seton Hall Prep anchor Ryan Matulonis, passing him on the final backstretch and striding powerfully away from him off the final turn.

Matulonis had split 48.94, and Tucker made up 20 meters on him with a dazzling 46.71 split.

Pennsauken’s 3:15.73 is 4th-fastest in state history, fastest by a South Jersey school in 22 years, No. 11 in U.S. history and a meet record by more than 2 ½ seconds.

Seton Hall Prep took 2nd in 3:16.72, and both were well under the previous meet record of 3:18.26 set in 2017 by East Orange at the Bubble.

The fastest previous 4-by-4 at an indoor Meet of Champs by a South Jersey school was Oakcrest’s winning 3:20.53 in 2012. Pennsauken beat that by nearly five seconds.

Liliah Gordon, Lillie Widmer race their way into all-time South Jersey 3,200 top-10 with blazing Meet of Champions races!!!!!!

Northern Burlington sophomore Liliah Gordon and Delsea senior Lillie Widmer both raced their way into the all-time South Jersey top-10 at 3,200 meters Sunday at the 55th annual Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

Gordon placed 5th in 10:38.20 and Widmer finished a step behind her in 6th with a 10:39.88. They’re the two-fastest times by South Jersey girls since Alyssa Aldridge of Mainland ran 10:33.95 – converted from a 10:37.65 full two-mile – at the 2016 Bishop Laughlin Games, also at Ocean Breeze.

Their times are 2nd- and 5th-fastest in meet history by South Jersey runners and by far the fastest times by place in meet history. They’re also No. 6 and 8 in South Jersey history and No. 18 and 21 in state history.

Gordon’s previous indoor PR was a 10:55.65 at sectionals last month at the Bubble. She ran 10:49.55 full two-mile at Ocean Breeze Nationals last year, which converts to 10:45.78 for 3,200 meters. Gordon broke her own South Jersey sophomore class record that she set at the Bubble last month, and her time is 4th-fastest in the U.S. among sophomores, according to MileSplit’s national database.

Widmer’s previous lifetime best was 10:54.31 indoors at states last month at the Bubble. Her PR coming into this season was 11:15.87 from Cherokee Night of Racing in the spring of the abbreviated 2021 season.

Gordon and Widmer both recorded the No. 2 marks in their county’s history, both behind a couple legendary runners.

Gordon is No. 2 in Burlington County history, behind Cherokee’s Megan Lacy, who ran 10:23.49 (converted from 10:27.13 for two miles) at 2011 Armory Nationals. Widmer is No. 2 in Gloucester County history, behind Kingsway’s Chelsea Ley, who ran 10:29.90 [converted from 10:33.57 for two miles] at 2009 Armory Nationals.

Gordon is the first Northern Burlington girl to medal at the Meet of Champions since Latasha Leake placed 4th in the high jump with a 5-4 clearance at Jadwin Gym in 2004. Widmer is Delsea’s first medalist since 2017, when Cecelia Gerstenbacher placed 2nd in the 200 in 25.16.

And let’s not forget Clearview senior Abigail Waddington and Egg Harbor junior Michaela Schlemo, who also broke 11 minutes.

Waddington placed 8th in 10:48.28, lowering her PR from 10:55.10 at the Bubble in January, and Schlemo, who took 11th in 10:57.53, lowering her PR from 11:06.06 from states. Waddington’s time is No. 4 in Gloucester County history, and Schlemo’s time is No. 2 in Atlantic County history, behind Aldridge in 2016.

Finally, Haddonfield junior Ava Thomas ran 11:04.46 and placed 14th in only her 4th race this winter. She trimmed 8 ½ seconds off her PR of 11:12.94 from states.

OK, time for lists!

SIANNI WYNN WINS 55 AND 200 AT MEET OF CHAMPIONS, DESTROYS NEW JERSEY FRESHMAN RECORDS IN BOTH RACES!!!!!!!!!!

Pennsauken’s dazzling Sianni Wynn continued her assault on the New Jersey track record book Sunday with a double win and two state freshman records at the 55th annual Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

Wynn became the first freshman to win two events at a Meet of Champions and set New Jersey freshman class records of 7.00 in the 55-meter dash and 24.48 in the 200. The previous marks were 7.04, which Wynn ran at Easterns Wednesday night and shared with Eastern’s English Gardner, and 24.81, which Wynn ran at the Hispanic Games in January.

Before this year, the freshman 200 record was 24.83, set by West Orange’s Taylor Aska last March at Ocean Breeze Nationals.

Wynn has also run 56.10 this year, only 16-100ths off the New Jersey freshman record of 55.94 set in 2014 by Matawan’s Sam Anderson at Easterns at the Armory.

Wynn is the 4th South Jersey girl to win two events at a Meet of Champions. Willingboro’s Carol Lewis won the high jump and hurdles in 1981, Dana Burnett of Williamstown won the 55 and 400 in 1996 – both at Princeton’s Jadwin Gym – and Gardner won the 55 and 400 in 2007 at the Bubble.

Wynn’s 55 time is No. 8 in South Jersey history and No. 18 in state history. Her 200 time is No. 5 in South Jersey history and No. 17 in state history.

According to the MileSplit national database, she’s the No. 1 freshman nationally at 55 meters, No. 2 in the 200 and No. 4 in the 400.

According to World Athletics, Wynn’s 200 time is No. 1 among U.S. runners in the Under-18 division and No. 5 in the world.

Pennsauken’s only previous girls winner at an indoor Meet of Champions was Alethia Jenkins, who won the 55-meter hurdles as a sophomore in 2000 with a time of 8.21.

If all that wasn’t enough, Wynn finished her day by splitting 57.23 on Pennsauken’s 6th-place 1,600-meter relay team for a 3rd medal.

Pennsauken, seeded 11th at 4:07.60, ran a school-record 4:01.86, with sophomore Amina Dyer, freshman Sanaya Dupree and sophomore Ameenah Rodriguez running the first three legs.

BRYCE TUCKER DESTROYS SOUTH JERSEY 400 RECORD IN MONSTER RACE AT MEET OF CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!

Pennsauken senior Bryce Tucker shattered the South Jersey indoor 400 record Sunday morning with a historic performance at the 55th annual Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

In a race that produced three of the 15-fastest times in state history, Tucker ran 47.45 and placed 2nd to Seton Hall Prep’s Xavier Donaldson, who ran 47.35.

Both ran well under the meet record of 48.26 set by Trenton’s Zyaire Clemes in 2013 at the Bubble.

Tucker destroyed the South Jersey record of 47.90 set by Moorestown’s Brandon Outlaw at 2017 Nationals at the Armory as well as the Camden County record of 48.27 set in 2002 by Camden’s Jade Smith at Midwest Indoor Track Classic in Lincoln, Neb.

Tucker, a two-time Meet of Champions winner outdoors in the 400-meter hurdles, lowered his PR nearly a second from 48.44, which he just ran Wednesday when he won Easterns.

Donaldson and Tucker now rank No. 6 and No. 7 nationally in the 400, according to the MileSplit national database.

The fastest previous time at Meet of Champions by a South Jersey quarter-miler was a 48.66 by Olympic gold medalist Lamont Smith of Willingboro when he won the 1991 meet at Jadwin Gym in Princeton.

The race produced the fastest times for at least 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th places in meet history and probably much deeper with 14 boys under 50 seconds.

Third-place Alexander Sadikov of Ocean Township placed 3rd in 48.00, also under the previous meet record.

Deptford senior Lathan Brown placed 6th in 48.96, breaking the Gloucester County indoor 400 record of 49.11 set at the 2012 Meet of Champions at the Bubble by Woodbury’s Darrell Bush. His time is No. 16 on the all-time Meet of Champions performance list.

Also under 50 were Pleasantville senior Xander Roberts-Bogin [9th in 49.62 in an earlier heat] and Atlantic City senior Darrel Farrow [14th in PR 49.99].

WASHINGTON TWP.’S YASHAHYA BROWN WINS MEET OF CHAMPIONS HURDLES, SHATTERS N.J. JUNIOR CLASS RECORD!!!!!!!!

Historic race Sunday morning for Washington Township junior Yashahya Brown, who out-raced U.S. No. 1 Nathaniel Rayan of Scotch Plains-Fanwood at the 55th annual Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze and broke the state junior class record along the way.

Brown got a fast start, got out in front of Rayan and never allowed the Scotch Plains senior to close on him, finishing in 7.22 – No. 6 in state history and No. 2 in the U.S. this year, behind Rayan’s 7.14 at Easterns Wednesday at the Armory.

Brown was only 4th-fastest in qualifying rounds at 7.59, behind Rayan (7.25), Pennsauken’s Bryce Tucker (7.47) and Toms River North’s Jacob Klyer (7.52), who edged Brown in his own heat.

But the final was all Brown, who blew away his PR of 7.36 from sectionals at the Bubble last month and lowered the state junior class record set in 1996 by another Gloucester County hurdler, Delsea’s Sultan Tucker, who ran 7.23 at Easterns at Princeton’s Jadwin Gym.

His time is tied for 3rd-fastest in meet history, behind Jermaine Collier of Trenton, who won the 2012 race in 7.19, and East Orange’s Cory Poole, who ran 7.21 in 2017. Willingboro’s Isaad Williams in 2012 and St. Augustine’s Sincere Rhea in 2019 also ran 7.22.

Brown is the fourth Washington Township boy to win a Meet of Champions title, following Carmen Cavella in the 1,600 in 2004 [4:19.09], Xavier Fraction in the 800 in 2009 [1:54.82] and Devon Carter in the hurdles in 2010 [7.49].

Tucker finished 3rd in a PR 7.36 – more on him later but that’s No. 14 in South Jersey history.
