Paul VI girls win DMR at La Salle Relay Night by 2-100ths of a second with #12 time in U.S. this year!!!!!!

Paul VI sophomore Grace Gutowski, junior Claire Magee, freshman Peyton Blake and junior Macy Huber ran the fastest distance medley by a South Jersey school this year Wednesday evening in West Philly.

Paul VI edged Upper Dublin by 2-100ths of a second to win the DMR at the La Salle Winter Series Girls Relay Night at the Ott Center. That’s about four inches.

Their time is No. 9 all-time on the Camden County performance list and No. 25 on the all-time South Jersey list. According to the MileSplit national database, it’s No. 12 in the U.S. this year.

Paul VI broke its school record of 12:30.53 set by Blake, senior Madison Eli, Gutowski and Huber at the state Parochial A meet at the Bubble last month.

Thanks to PVI coach Vin Cieslik for correcting the order of runners listed in the official results: Gutowski ran a 3:45.33 leadoff for 1,200 meters, Magee split 58.75 for 400 meters, Blake ran 2:26.33 on the 800-meter leg and Huber anchored in 5:09.23, holding off Upper Dub anchor Faith Castronuovo at the line. Castronuovo just ran a 5:03.02 full mile on the same track two weeks ago and she split 5:04.72 for 1,600 meters on her anchor leg.

    Yo Roob,

    Thanks for the coverage. Grace ran the 1200, Blake on the 800, Claire on the quarter and Huber on the 1600.

    Also, the previous school record was a 12:26.9 from back in 82.

      Thanks, yeah, fixed the lineup. Those Ott Center lineups seem to be wrong every time.

      I don’t have that 12:26.9 in my records. Lemme do some research and update that! Thanks!

      hey Mike – your email bounced back, but this is what I emailed you:

      Hey Mike – OK, I can’t find a 12:26.9 DMR anywhere from 1982. It wasn’t at Easterns, it wasn’t at state relays, it wasn’t at the old SJ championships at Widener. In fact, there was no PVI DMR result at any of those meets! I’m not sure what other meets to check. I can start rummaging through my old New Jersey track newsletters in the garage but that’s a last resort! Any other ideas where that performance might have come from? Also do you know if that’s a 2 1/2-mile time or converted to 4,000 meters? I’ll keep looking! thanks, Roob

      p.s. – I did find an outdoor 12:27 from Woodbury but nothing indoors.
