Timber Creek senior Ryan Jennings ran the 6th-fastest 200 in state history at a meet this past weekend in New York.
Jennings tore up one lap of the Armory track in 24.09, the fastest time in the U.S. this year, according to the MileSplit database.
The only faster time by a South Jersey girl indoors is Sianni Wynn’s 24.00 to win the Meet of Champions this past March.
Jennings broke the school record of 24.15, set at Ocean Breeze in February by former teammate Naylah Jones.
Jennings’ previou indoor PR was a 24.47 at Ocean Breeze this past February. Outdoors, she ran 23.86 in a meet at Delsea, 10th-fastest in state history.
Jennings also won the 55-meter dash in 7.04, also fastest in New Jersey this year. Her PR is 7.00 from Group 3 sectionals last year at the Bubble.
