Delsea’s Elisia Lancaster missed advancing to the finals of the hammer throw at the U.S. Olympic Trials Friday by six inches.

Lancaster threw 214-5 at Hayward Field in Eugene, Ore., only six feet off her lifetime-best 220-11, which she threw three weeks ago at the Iron Wood Classic in Rathdrum, Idaho, about 30 miles northeast of Spokane, Wash.

She placed 15th overall, and the top 12 qualifiers advanced to the final Sunday evening. Jasmine Mitchell of Ole Miss, the SEC champion, was 12th at 214-10.

Lancaster, the Missouri Valley Conference champion for Southern Illinois in 2022, graduated in the spring of 2022 and didn’t compete last year.

Lancaster opened with a 210-7 before throwing the 214-5 on her 2nd attempt. She finished with a 188-3 on her final throw.

New Jersey’s other national-class hammer thrower, Alyssa Wilson of Donovan Catholic in Toms River, placed 16th with a season-best 209-6. Wilson is the New Jersey alumni record holder at 245-4 when she placed 2nd for UCLA at the 2022 NCAA Championships, also at Hayward Field.

In 1906, Almonesson native Mel Sheppard won the 880-yard run in 1:55.4 at the U.S. Track Championships in New York.

Here we are 118 years later and South Jersey is still going strong at the national track championships.

We wrote yesterday about the 10 South Jersey men and women who will compete over the next 10 days at the USATF Olympic Trials in Eugene. Click here for that story. Here also is a look at every South Jersey athlete that’s ever won a U.S. title.

And thanks to Rodney Coon for the info about Riverton’s Francis Ruppert, who won two national titles in the 100 (and a 3rd on a relay) in the 100-yard dash in the first two national women’s championships. USATF doesn’t consider those meets as part of the current USATF nationals lineage, but they’re wrong about everything else so we’re including those marks here.

With the U.S. Olympic Track Trials scheduled to begin Friday at Hayward Field, we’ve got a look at the 10 South Jersey athletes who are expected to be in action over the next 10 days in Eugene … and also some others who came very close to qualifying.

At the bottom, we’ve got a list of every South Jersey athlete that’s ever won a U.S. title.

Nia Ali, Pleasantville, 100-meter hurdles
The 2016 silver medalist looks to make her 2nd trip to the Olympics after sitting out the 2021 season to have a baby. Ali is a three-time outdoor World Championship finalist and won her first world title in Doha, Qatar, in 2019, and she also won indoor Worlds in 2014 and 2016. With a win at the Trials, she’d become the first South Jersey woman to win consecutive U.S. titles since Carol Lewis won the long jump in 1985 and 1986. Ali is world No. 6 and U.S. No. 2 so far this year with her 12.44 in Gainesville in April. She showed her current form with a 12.48 win at the Paavo Nurmi Games in Turku, Finland, on Tuesday. With her 12.30 in Monaco last July, Ali is No. 9 in world history and No. 3 all-time U.S.
First Round: 8:28 p.m., Friday, June 28
Semifinals: 8:04 p.m., Saturday, June 29
Final: 8 p.m., Sunday, June 30

Josh Awotunde, Delsea, shot put
After placing 3rd at Worlds in Eugene in 2022, Awotunde placed 2nd at U.S. Nationals last year. He’s only thrown twice this year but hit 70-7 ½ at the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene late last Month in his last competition. That currently makes him No. 16 in the world and No. 6 among Americans. Awotunde PR’d at 73-1 ½ at Worlds and that’s No. 21 in world history and No. 12 on the all-time U.S. list.
First round: 9:15 p.m., Friday, June 21
Final: 6:40 p.m., Saturday, June 22

English Gardner, Eastern, 100-meter dash
Already a two-time U.S. champion, Gardner seeks a berth on her 3rd Olympic team at 32 years old. Gardner placed 7th in the 2016 Olympic final and won a gold medal on the U.S. 400-meter relay team in 2016 and a silver medal on the 2021 400-meter relay team. Gardner’s best time this year is an 11.22 when she won the Los Angeles Grand Prix in May at Drake Stadium. She’s No. 10 in world history and No. 5 in U.S. history at 10.74.
First round: 9:15 p.m., Friday, June 21
Semifinals: 9 p.m., Saturday, June 22
Final: 10:50 p.m., Saturday, June 22

Aliya Garozzo, Paul VI, 400-meter hurdles
The Sicklerville native had a breakthrough year at Penn this spring, lowering her PR from 59.76 to a Quaker school-record 56.34, which she ran when she won the Ivy League Championships at Princeton last month. This will be Garozzo’s 1st U.S. Championships or Olympic Trials, and she’s the first South Jersey woman to run the intermediates at U.S. Nationals since Winslow’s Krystal Cantey advanced to the semis in 2007 in Indianapolis. Garozzo hasn’t raced since NCAA East Prelims in Lexington, Ky., in late May, and that’s been her only race since her PR 56.34 at Ivy’s on May 5.
First round: 9:49 p.m., Thursday, June 27
Semifinals: 8:41 p.m., Saturday, June 29
Final: 8:29 p.m., Sunday, June 30

Johnnie Jackson, Cherry Hill East, hammer throw
After sitting out the entrie 2023 season, the 29-year-old Jackson bombed a lifetime-best 242-10 last month in Tucson, Ariz., in what was just his 4th meet in two years. Jackson made the podium at nationals in 2017, when he threw 235-2 in Sacramento, Calif., and placed 2nd, and he made the finals at the 2021 Trials, placing 10th with a 226-4. He placed 16th in his most recent U.S. Nationals in 2022 in Eugene with a 228-6. Jackson currently ranks 55th in the world and 10th among American men. His 242-10 ranks 43rd in U.S. history.
Semifinals: 9:30 p.m., Friday, June 28
Final: 8:15 p.m., Sunday, June 30

Erika Kemp, Rancocas Valley, 10,000-meter run
Kemp focuses mainly on the roads these days, and she’s only run one track 10,000 since the 2021 Olympic Trials, but it was a PR 31:28.69 in San Juan Capistrano, Calif., back in March, that easily qualified her for the Trials. Everyone at 32:23.95 or faster got in, so Kemp qualified by nearly a minute. This is Kemp’s 4th U.S. Nationals and 2nd Trials. She placed 21st at 5,000 meters at 2017 Nationals in Sacramento in 16:19.45 and 15th at 5,000 meters at the 2021 Trials with a 16:22.27 and tried to double back in the 10,000 five days later but DNF’d. She recorded a 16:02.88 and placed 18th at 5,000 meters at 2019 Nationals in Des Moines, Iowa. Kemp is No. 46 in the world at 10,000 meters this spring and No. 11 among U.S. women. She’s No. 40 in U.S. history with her 31:28.69 (and also No. 69 in U.S. history at 5,000 meters with her 15:10.10 in Boston in 2021).
Final: 9:09 p.m., Saturday, June 29

Elisia Lancaster, Delsea, hammer
This will be Lancaster’s 2nd trip to U.S. Nationals and her 1st Olympic Trials. She placed 16th at Nationals in 2022 in Eugene with a 212-10 after graduating from Southern Illinois. Lancaster threw a PR 220-11 last month at a meet in Rathdrum, Idaho, of all places, and that makes her No. 18 among U.S. women this year. Lancaster was a six-time JUCO national champion at Rowan College of South Jersey. She competed briefly at Towson – one indoor season – before a record-setting career at Southern Illinois, where she won a Mountain Valley hammer title and went to NCAAs in 2022 and earned All-America honors indoors in the weight throw and earned her masters in social work.
Semifinals: 2 p.m., Friday, June 21
Final: 8 p.m., Sunday, June 23

Curtis Thompson, Florence, javelin
Thompson is already one of only seven men in the 116-year history of the U.S. Championships to win three national javelin titles (and one of only three since 1955). He shoots for No. 4 following wins in in 2018 in Des Moines [249-3] and 2021 [271-7] and 2023 [265-5] in Eugene. Thompson made the U.S. Olympic team in 2021. Thompson ranks No. 4 among U.S. men this year at 267-3. He ranks 51st in world history and 3rd all-time U.S. with his 287-9 in East Stroudsburg in 2021. He has eight lifetime throws over 270 feet.
Semifinals: 6:30 p.m., Friday, June 21
Final: 9:40 p.m., Sunday, June 23

Tionna Tobias, Winslow Twp., long jump
The versatile Tobias, who recently concluded her senior year, has a few events where she’s national class. She won the Big Ten heptathlon last year with 5,640 points, which isn’t far off this year’s qualifying standard [5,913 points), but she didn’t compete in a multi this spring. And she actually could have run the 100-meter hurdles at the Trials this year if she wanted with a wind-legal 13.18 in Gainesville in March. The qualifying cutoff was 13.23. She’s run as fast as 13.11 with legal wind. But Tobias will compete in the long jump. Tobias PR’d at 21-4 ¼ (0.0 wind), also in Gainesville in March (and she also had a legal 21-0 in the same meet). That 21-4 ¼ puts her at No. 20 among U.S. women this spring.
Semifinals: 9:18 p.m., Thursday, June 27
Final: 8:20 p.m., Saturday, June 29

Jessica Woodard, Cherokee, shot put
This will be Woodard’s 12th appearance at an indoor or outdoor U.S. Nationals, and she’s finished 8th or better in each of the last eight. Woodard has made three podiums at nationals and in 2022 placed 3rd with her PR 63-7 ¾ in Eugene, earning a berth on the U.S. team at Worlds, where she placed 8th with a 61-3 ¼. This is Woodard’s 3rd Trials but 2nd since becoming an elite thrower. She made the finals in 2021, placing 7th overal at 58-9 ¾ after a 60-3 ¼ in qualifying. Woodard is 24th in the world this year and 11th among U.S. women with her 60-11 indoors in Albuquerque in February. She just threw her 2024 outdoor best of 60-4 at the USATF Grand Prix in New York last weekend. Woodard is 16th in U.S. history with that 63-7 ¾.
Semifinals: 10:15 p.m., Friday, June 28
Final: 8:50 p.m., Saturday, June 29

And here’s a look at some South Jersey near misses. These athletes were close to qualifying or did seem to qualify but for one reason or another didn’t enter or scratched. The USATF gives out very little information on this stuff – or anything else for that matter – so this is an inexact science. There could be other reasons athletes didn’t enter or shoot for a qualifying mark – injuries, retiring from the sport, not wanting to chase a qualifier in a short period of time. And it’s also possible that some of the meets where they qualified were not approved by USATF as potential qualifiers, although the standards for meets to count as qualifiers are not posted or explained anywhere on the USATF’s garbage web site. So nobody really has any clue. Mistakes, lemme know.

Jailya Ash, Eastern, 100-meter hurdles
Ash, a junior at UCOnn, ran 13.29 in a meet in Storrs in March with legal wind. The hurdles cutoff wound up at 13.23, so she was just 6-100ths of a second short.

Kevin Burr, Rancocas Valley, Javelin
Burr, who just picked up a javelin for the first time in the spring of 2023, just missed qualifying for the Trials in his 2nd year with the event and freshman year at Tennessee. Burr threw 234-6 at the NCAA East Prelims in Lexington, earning a trip to NCAAs, where he placed 11th overall and was the top freshman in the country. The last qualifier at the Trials, Cody Canard of Weber State, threw 234-8.

Marielle Hall, Haddonfield, 5,000, 10,000
Hall, an Olympian at 10,000 meters in 2016, hasn’t raced on the track since May 26, 2023, when she ran 15:35.72 in L.A. That was a few weeks before the qualifying window opened and just five seconds shy of the eventual 15:30.46 cutoff, but she never did pursue a qualifier. Hall ran sub-15:30 every year from 2014 through 2022, with the exception of 2021. She ran 31:58.88 in her last track 10,000 – in May of 2022 in Eugene – and that’s well under this year’s 32:23.95 cutoff. But Hall – 8th at Worlds in the 10,000 in Doha in 2019 – may be injured or sticking to the roads from now on.

Malachi James, Burlington, 100-meter dash
James’ 10.18 came without a wind guage but would have qualified him if it was wind-legal and USATF accepted marks from high school meets. His fastest wind-legal 100 was a 10.28, which wouldn’t have made the 10.19 cut (and came three days after the close of the qualifying window). But James has summer football at Syracuse starting soon and wouldn’t have been able to go even if he did qualify

Naylah Jones, Timber Creek, 100-meter dash
We wrote earlier this week about why Jones’s entry into the Trials was likely rejected. To read that story click here.

Gabriel Moronta, Pleasantville, 400-meter dash
Moronta ran a huge PR 45.81 on May 10 at the American Athletic Conference meet in San Antonio, which was only 8-100ths offf the qualifying cutoff. He may have gotten hurt because he was not part of South Florida’s 4-by-4 team at NCAAs and hasn’t raced since his conference meet.

Mawali Osunniyi, Mainland Regional, High Jump
In a meet at Harvard in February, Osunniyi cleared 7-1 ½ as a UConn freshman, 5 ½ inches higher than his high school PR of 6-8. Osunniyi, the indoor and outdoor Big East champ as a freshman, was very close to the high jump cutoff of 7-2 ¼. Osunniyi never competed in the high jump until his senior year at Mainland – his first lifetime meet was last year’s Bridgeton Relays.

Dennisha Page, Wilson, 100-meter dash, 200-meter dash
Page was originally entered in the 100 and 200 with her PRs of 11.10 and 22.39, both in Gainesville in May, but at some point she withdrew. She’s No. 19 among U.S. women in the 100 and No. 13 in the 200 and would have easily qualified in both sprints. Page may have gotten hurt at NCAAs, where she ran well off her season-best times in both dashes. She hasn’t raced since.

Sincere Rhea, St. Augustine, 110-meter hurdles
The qualifying window for the Trials opened on July 1, 2023, and that was soon after Rhea finished up his junior year at Miami. The cutoff in the 110-meter high hurdles was 13.70, a time Rhea has run several times, including a wind-legal 13.48 at ACCs on May 26, 2023 – about five weeks before the qualifying window opened. Rhea, who is transferring out of Miami, elected not to continue his 2023 season to try to obtain a Trials qualifier and hasn’t raced outdoors since the qualifying window opened a year ago.

Bryce Tucker, Pennsauken, 400-meter hurdles
Premier Wynn, Pennsauken, 400-meter hurdles
Tucker ran 50.61 to win the Big Ten Championships in Ann Arbor, Mich., on May 12, and Wynn ran 50.72, on May 8, when he placed 2nd in the MEAC Championships in Norfolk, Va. The 400IH cutoff wound up at 50.92, but neither Tucker nor Wynn entered the Trials. Wynn did place 2nd at USATF Under-20s and will travel to Lima, Peru, in August for the World Under-20’s.

Floyd Whitaker, Highland, Triple Jump
Whitaker, who transferred from Minnesota to Oklahoma after the 2023 indoor season, PR’d with a 52-3 ¼ at the indoor Big 12 Championships in Lubbock, Texas. That appears to be good enough to get Whitaker into the Trials, where the cutoff was 51-8 ½, but he didn’t enter, possibly because of the new USATF rules that don’t allow qualifying marks from all college meets for reasons that aren’t explained anywhere on their web site.

Kenady Wilson, Willingboro, high jump
Wilson’s 6-0 ¾ in Greensboro in 2022 would have been good enough to qualify if she repeated it during the qualifying window. But she appears to have retired from competition after winning the Coastal Athletic Association Championships in Williamsburg, Va., in May of 2023 with a 5-8 ¾.

 

 

With West Philly Nationals starting a day after the Meet of Champions, I wasn’t sure how much of a South Jersey turnout there would be at Franklin Field or how well those athletes who did participate would do.

But as you can see from the list below, the meet was a hugely successful one for South Jersey athletes looking for one more big-time performance before shutting down for the summer.

We had two winners, 12 All-America individuals, four All-America relay teams and  seven other top-10 performances, plus five freshman medalists. And many of South Jersey’s top runners, jumpers and throwers elected not to compete with Nationals coming on the heels of the Meet of Champs and just a few days after states. That’s a lot in a short period of time.

Next year, things will be more spread out. There will be a two-week gap between sectionals and states and then a week between MoC and then Nationals and USATF Under-20s.

But that’s a year away. Let’s take a moment to commemorate all the top-10 finishers at this year’s Nationals. It was quite a showing for South Jersey. We’re using the traditional * to indicate a junior, ** for a sophomore and *** for freshmen. Judging by the number of talented underclassmen on this list – and many who aren’t – 2025 is going to be another remarkable year.

And the Cherokee Challenge is only 80 days away!

(As always, mistakes can happen. If I omitted an athlete, I didn’t do it on purpose. I really don’t hate your school. Please let me know in the comment section and I’ll make sure to add them!)

When Timber Creek senior Naylah Jones ran 11.23 with a legal wind for 100 meters at the state Group 3 meet at Delsea, it appeared to put her in the mix for the U.S. Olympic Trials.

The “A” standard for the Trials, which start Friday in. Eugene, is 11.07, and everyone who runs the A standard is guaranteed a spot in the field. But the “B” standard is 11.30 and as meet officials fill the field for each race, they begin accepting athletes with the B standard until they reach 36.

Only 17 U.S. women ran the A standard this year with legal wind and 16 of them entered the Trials. To get the field to 36 women, they took everyone who ran 11.30 or faster.

And 11.23 is faster than 11.30.

So you would think Jones would have qualified.

But on the Trials “status of entries” list, her entry is listed with “rejected,” with no additional information.

She ran 11.23 on June 7 – within the qualifying window of July 1, 2023, through June 9, 2024 – and she got her entry in well before the 11:59 p.m. June 11 deadline.

So why isn’t she on her way to Eugene?

It’s a great question, and it appears the answer is that the USATF quietly changed the rules that govern qualifying for nationals.

Although there isn’t a word about it on the USATF “qualifying information” page, there apparently is a new rule that prohibits athletes from using marks in high school-only meets to qualify.

It’s typical USATF to make a rule and not tell anybody or post anything about it on their abomination of a web site, which looks like it was put together by middle school computer students in 1997.

I don’t know anyone who follows this stuff as closely as I do, and I had no idea the qualifying rules had changed. The only place I found any reference to it was on Reddit, where a user explained that the rule change was probably due to the lack of drug testing at high school meets. Even college meets must now meet specific guidelines for their marks to be used to qualify for the Trials.

What I do know is that this rule could influence top high school athletes to compete independently in open meets instead of for their team, and any rule that does that is a bad one. Maybe for Athing Mu it makes sense, but for 99.9 percent of high school athletes, it doesn’t.

It will help that next year the top New Jersey high school track athletes will be able to compete at USATF Under-20’s, which presumably will be an approved meet to qualify for senior nationals. This year, Under-20’s – the qualifier for World Under-20’s – overlapped with Meet of Champions and West Philly Nationals.

But it just doesn’t make sense that six women who ran slower than Jones were accepted into the Trials and Jones wasn’t.

Would she have made the Olympic team? Of course not. But the USATF is denying one of the country’s top young female sprinters the incredible experience of competing at the highest level alongside stars such as Sha’Carri Richardson, Jacious Sears and English Gardner.

If the USATF wants to develop top young runners into world-class competitors, allowing them into a meet like the Olympic Trials if they’ve qualified sure would make a lot of sense.

Jones’ 11.23 is the fastest time ever by a New Jersey girl during the high school track season. Trenton’s Wendy Vereen ran 11.17 at a summer track meet – the National Sports Festival on July 3, 1983, in Colorado Springs – between her junior and senior year.

She deserves. a chance to go even faster.

Zoe Goldberg capped a fantastic career by earning All-America honors in the javelin Sunday at West Philly Nationals on the Moon Mondschein Throwing Complex adjacent to the Schuylkill Expressway across the Northeast Corridor train line from Franklin field.

Goldberg, an Eastern senior, popped a 135-8 on her 1st throw and placed 5th overall for her first career All-America performance.

Goldberg PR’d this spring at 146-1 at South Jersey Group 4 sectionals at Pennsauken and also surpassed 140 feet at states, which she won with a 140-9 in Somerset, Woodbury [144-6] and the Penn Relays [142-11].

She leaves Eastern ranked 8th in South Jersey history and is headed for Boston University in the fall.

Sterling senior Laurel Conway placed 15th with a 123-11 throw, also on her 1st throw of the competition. She PR’d this spring at 131-3 at the Camden County Championships at Haddon Township and was 2nd in the state Group 2 meet at Delsea.

Goldberg and Conway rank 3rd and 6th in Camden County history. Another Eastern senior, Aniyah Smith, threw 129-1 this year and ranks 7th in on the all-time Camden County list.

Sophia Curtis earned her 4th All-America honor in two years at Ocean City with a 6th-place finish in the triple jump at Wesrt Philly Nationals at Franklin Field.

Curtis had three jumps over 40 feet Saturday, including a best of 40-8 ¼ on her 2nd attempt. She and Ma’syiah Brawner finished 6th and 8th, with Brawner jumping a lifetime-best 40-6 ¼. Brawner also earned All-America honors in the long jump.

Curtis also earned All-America honors last year indoors with a 3rd-place finish in the triple jump at Boston Nationals [41-3 1/4], last spring with a 6th-place finish in the 400-meter hurdles at West Philly Nationals [1:01.67] and this past indoor season with a 4th in the triple jump at Boston Nationals [40-1 ½]. She just missed a 5th All-America accolade with a 9th-place in the 400 hurdles Friday with a 1:01.08, just 10-100ths of a second out of 8th.

Curtis, who spent her first two years of high school at Padua Academy in Wilmington, Del., leaves Ocean City with PRs of 41-3 ¼ in the triple jump, 8.33 high hurdles and 57.80 for 400 indoors and 17-11 ¾, 41-9 ½, 15.02 and 56.04 outdoors.

She holds Cape May County records indoors in the 200, 400, high hurdles and triple jump and outdoors in the 400, 100-meter hurdles, 400-meter hurdles, long jump and triple jump.

She’s No. 3 in state history and No. 2 all-time in South Jersey in the triple jump and 7 in South Jersey history in the intermediates.

Curtis plans to enter Virginia Tech in the fall.

Jamir Brown had such a promising sophomore season it was easy to wonder just what he would be doing by the time he was a senior.

As a sophomore at Delran, Brown was the No. 2 sophomore in New Jersey in the 110-meter hurdles at 14.66 [behind only Yashahya Brown], he was No. 2 soph in the 400-meter hurdles at 54.52 [behind only 2024 Meet of Champions winner Jason Meza of Morristown], he was the No. 2 sophomore in the long jump [behind 2024 Meet of Champions triple jump winner Rece Englehart] and No. 3 in the triple jump [behind Englehart and Cresskill’s Joshua Yoon].

It was quite a resume, but after transferring to Riverside, Brown missed virtually all of the 2023 season with injuries.

This year, healthy again, Brown blossomed into one of the top performers in South Jersey history. He capped his record-setting season by earning All-America honors at West Philly Nationals at Franklin Field in the long jump, the only event her entered.

Brown placed 5th with a 23-5 ½ with legal wind on his 3rd attempt. He jumped 22-4 or better on all six attempts and averaged 22-7 ¾ per jump. He was the top New Jersey jumper – Englehart jumped 22-10 and placed 15th.

He winds up 4th in South Jersey history and 7th in state history in the high hurdles at 13.54, 22nd in the intermediates at 53.32 – which he only ran three times this year (and never lost) and 22nd in the long jump at 23-8 ¾. He also ran sub-22 in his only 200 – at the BCSL Championships.

Brown had a hand in 36 of Riverside’s 38 points at the state Group 1 meet at Pennsauken when the Rams placed 3rd in the state behind Woodbury and Glassboro in a 1-2-3 South Jersey sweep. He swept both hurdles and the long jump and anchored Riveside’s 3rd-place 4-by-100 team, which also included freshman Christopher Lopez, sophomore Justin Mary and senior Carmine Smith. Smith also placed in the high jump for Riverside that day.

Brown is in the top-10 in New Jersey Group 1 history in all three events and No. 1 all-time in the 110-meter highs.

Washington Township senior Dahlia Beasley finished up a fantastic senior year with a huge 400 PR and All-America honors at West Philly Nationals at Franklin Field..

The versatile Beasley ran 24.35 and placed 3rd at the Meet of Champions with a legal wind, she high jumped 5-6 and won the state Group 4 title and she long jumped 18-10 and placed 2nd at states, but at Nationals she had a breakthrough race in the 400, lowering her PR from 55.55 from last year’s Nationals at Franklin Field to 54.83 and placing 8th.

She finished 3-100ths of a second in front of 9th place, earning All-America accolades by the smallest of margins.

Beasley finishes her fabulous career ranked No. 5 in Gloucester County history at 200 meters, No. 5 in the 400 and No. 6 in the long jump.

And considering that she was competing in three or four events in virtually every meet, that’s impressive. She was a big reason the Washington Township girls won the South Jersey Group 4 meet and placed 3rd at states. She scored 34 points at sectionals and 24 at states.

She leaves Washington Township with school records in the 200, 400 and long jump, and she’s 2nd in the high jump, behind Misty Farrell, who cleared 5-8 at the 1995 state Group 4 meet at South Plainfield.

At Nationals, Beasley also ran 24.82 in the 200 and long jumped 18-6 ¼.

Beasley will join the outstanding Rutgers program in the fall.

The Winslow Township girls on Sunday closed out a historic season filled with championships, records and unforgettable performances with one of the greatest relays in South Jersey history.

Sophomore Olivia Okaro, freshman Skhye Seamon, senior Djassi Dean and freshman Cinniya Robinson placed 4th in a crazy fast1,600-meter relay championship – the final event on the final day of the final meet of the 2024 track season – and earned All-America honors at West Philly Nationals at Franklin Field.

Winslow ran 3:44.43, the fastest time by a South Jersey 4-by-4 relay in 23 years.

Winslow, four girls from Atco, Chesilhurst and Waterford, finished behind only three national track and field all-star programs – Montverde Academy of Florida, Bullis School of Potomac, Md., and Union Catholic of Scotch Plains.

But regardless of times, it’s more impressive when a relay team made up of four girls from the same community runs 3:44 than anything a private all-star program drawing athletes from across a region does.

Winslow’s time is No. 2 in South Jersey history behind Willingboro’s 3:43.94 at 2001 Greensboro Nationals with Halimah Bashir, Chanel Hamilton, Danielle Myrics and Okechi Ogbuokiri.

Winslow’s time is No. 12 in state history and No. 7 if you remove five Union Catholic performances. The only schools in state history to run faster are Union Catholic five times, Columbia three times and Plainfield and Willingboro once each.

It’s also fastest by any New Jersey public school since Columbia ran 3:41.19 at 2014 Greensboro Nationals.

Okaro led off for the Eagles, followed by Seamon, and although splits aren’t available because of the three-turn stagger, Okaro and Seamon brought the stick to Dean in 1:52.35, so they averaged 56.2 per leg. Dean then split 57.54 to set up Robinson, who blazed a 54.54 anchor to move Winslow up from 5th to 4th.

Winslow’s previous-best time this year was a 3:46.85 at the Penn Relays. The previous school record was a 3:46.67 at the 2018 Meet of Champions at Northern Burlington with Janeya Hammond, Flora Ahiarakwe, Nylah Perry and Shakirah Dancy.

Winslow also broke a 29-year-old Camden County record of 3:45.41 set by Camden’s Tynisha Revels, Medina Salaam, Aishia Lawson and Alishia Lawson when the Panthers placed 4th in the 1995 Penn Relays Championship of America race on the same track.

Eastern ran 3:52.70 and placed 16th, with senior Eva Sprewell, sophomore Samantha Osei-Kyei, junior Jasmine Davies and sophomore Natalie Dumas, who closed out her historic sophomore year with a 53.99 split.
