MORE FIREWORKS FROM SETH CLEVENGER: A DAY AFTER 3RD-FASTEST 3,000 in D-3 HISTORY, HE RUNS 15TH-FASTEST MILE EVER BY A D-3 RUNNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One day after he ran the 3rd-fastest 3,000 in NCAA Division 3 history, Haddonfield’s Seth Clevenger capped one of the greatest weekends any D-3 distance runner has ever had by recording the 15th-fastets mile in D-3 history.

On day two of his first meet competing for Rowan, Clevenger placed 5th in the mile at the Dr. Sander Columbia Scorcher at the Armory in 4:02.76. He won the 3,000 in 7:54.87 on Friday.

After smashing the school record in the 3,000 by more than 20 seconds, he broke the school record in the mile by more than eight seconds. The previous mark was 4:11.05 set by Scott Hubbard of Cumberland Regional at Ocean Breeze in February 2024.

Clevenger, a transfer from Iowa State, becomes the 9th-fastest miler South Jersey has produced and the fastest since Kingsway’s Tom Cooke ran 4:01.08 in West Chester in 2021. He’s the fastest collegiate miler from South Jersey since Abgsegami’s Ford Palmer, then a Monmouth senior, ran 4:00.46 at the Armory in February 2013.

Clevenger’s mile and 3,000 times are both fastest in Division 3 this year and are helping Rowan become one of the favorites to win the NCAA Division 3 championship in Birmingham, Ala., in March.

Clevenger’s previous mile PR was 4:07.14 from a meet in Ames, Iowa, in January 2024.

Clevenger came through 400 in 60.98, 800 in 2:01.93 and 1,200 in 3:02.85 and closed in 59.92, with a 29.39 final lap.

Josh Crawford, Karson Chew race Woodstown into the record books with historic 800s at the Armory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woodstown seniors Josh Crawford and Karson Chew ran 800 PRs Friday at the Armory and Woodstown became the first Group 1 school with two sub-1:56 indoor half-milers in the same year.

Crawford won the 800 at the Dr. Sander Columbia Scorcher in 1:54.94 and Chew ran a huge PR 1:55.85 for 2nd place. Crawford lowered his PR a few fractions from 1:54.98 but Chew’s previous best was a 1:58.34 and his indoor PR was 2:00.54 from last month at the Ott Center.

Those are the top two Group 1 times in the state this year and the two-fastest indoor Group 1 times ever by South Jersey half-milers. They’re also No. 1 and 2 on the all-time Salem County list. They’re No. 3 and 8 in New Jersey so far this year.

Crawford led the whole race, with Chew right behind him. Crawford was out in 27.46 and Chew in 27.51, and they hit 400 meters in 56.12 and 56.31 and came through 600 in 1:25.64 and 1:25.97. They both closed in sub-30, Crawford in 29.31 and Chew in 29.88.

Crawford and Chew along with senior Jacob Marino and junior David Farrell ran on Woodstown’s N.J. No. 1 and U.S. No. 8 8:00.24 4-by-8 at the Millrose Trials on the same track. Woodstown will race the 3,200-meter relay at the 118th annual Millrose Games on Feb. 1.

SETH CLEVENGER RUNS 3RD-FASTEST 3,000 IN NCAA DIVISION 3 HISTORY AND FASTEST EVER BY S.J. RUNNER IN FIRST RACE FOR ROWAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In his first race for Rowan, Haddonfield’s Seth Clevenger ran the 3rd-fastest 3,000 meters in NCAA Division 3 history Friday at the Dr. Sander Columbia Scorcher at the Armory.

Running all his laps under 32 seconds, Clevenger won the race in 7:54.87, falling just 1 1/2 seconds shy of the NCAA Division 3 record. The only faster times recorded by Division 3 runners were a 7:53.24 recorded by John Carroll’s Alex Phillip in Boston in 2023 and a 7:54.48 by Aidan Ryan of Williams in 2022, also in Boston.

Clevenger, a transfer from Iowa State, had a 3,000 PR of 8:12.00 from a meet in February 2024 in Fayetteville, Ark.

He broke the Rowan school record of 8:15.29 set in 2018 by Brick Memorial’s Kevin Veltre in Boston.

Clevenger’s time is also fastest ever recorded by a South Jersey high school alum, breaking the mark of 7:57.65 set in 2017 by Absegami’s Ford Palmer. Cinnaminson’s Austin Gabay [7:58.94 in 2024] and Ocean City’s John Richardson [7:59.26 in 2008] also ran sub-8:00.

Woodbury’s Peyton Shute, a sophomore at Cornell, placed 4th in 8:06.37, which is No. 8 on the all-time South Jersey 3,000-meter list.

RIVERSIDE’S JAMIR BROWN RUNS 9TH-FASTEST HURDLES TIME IN THE WORLD THIS YEAR AT CLEMSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Riverside’s Jamir Brown ran a hurdles PR 7.60 Friday afternoon in the semifinals of the Orange and Purple Invitational at Clemson. That’s 9th-fastest in the world, according to the World Athletics database.

His time is tied for 3rd-fastest in NCAA Division 1 and 2rd-fastest in Syracuse history, fastest in 14 years. It’s also 6th-fastest ever by a New Jersey high school alum and fastest by a South Jersey hurdler since Anwar Moore of Camden ran 7.50 in Boston in 2008. It’s also 4th-fastest this year by an American.

Brown, who set NCAA Division 3 records indoors and outdoros as a Rowan freshman last year, lowered his PR from 7.63, which he ran last weekend at Penn State.

Brown led all qualifiers in the semifinals after a 7.70 in the prelims. The final is coming up at 5:05 p.m.

Alabama’s Alexander Osayemi from Clayton, the Meet of Champions record holder, runs huge indoor PR in 1st collegiate 400!!!!!!!!

Alabama freshman Alexander Osayemi from Clayton ran an indoor PR Friday at the Orange and Purple Invitational at Clemson, clocking 47.20 and placing 9th overall in a loaded field.

That’s 3rd-fastest among all NCAA Division 1 freshmen.

Osayemi won the Meet of Champions with a 46.08 last spring, but his previous indoor PR was a 48.57 when he was 4th at the indoor Meet of Champions this past March at Ocean Breeze.

This was his first collegiate 400.

Osayemi’s time is 10th-fastest in the SEC this year but 2nd-fastest among freshmen, behind Georgia’s Jonathan Simms, who ran 44.62 last week at Clemson. That’s 4th-fastest ever indoors and an Under-20 world record.

Hddonfield’s Seth Clevenger set to make debut for Rowan over 3,000 meters at the Armory today!!!!!!!!!!!!

Former Haddonfield star Seth Clevenger, who began his college career at Iowa State, will make his debut for Rowan Friday afternoon at the Armory.

Clevenger is listed in the heat sheets as an entrant in the invitational 3,000-meter run at the Dr. Sander Columbia Scorcher, scheduled for 3:27 p.m. It will be his first race since a terrific 23:37 over 8,000 meters for Iowa State at the Nuttycombe Invitational on Oct. 17, in Madison, Wisc. He placed 19th in a loaded field of more than 200 runners.

Clevenger has a 3,000 PR of 8:12.00 from a meet in February of 2024 in Fayetteville, Ark. He’s listed in the entries as a junior at Rowan.

Rowan’s 3,000 school record is 8:15.29 by Kevin Veltre from Brick Memorial in a meet in Boston in February 2018.

Clevenger is also entered in the mile at 2:05 p.m. Saturday, although it’s hard to imagine he would double in his first meet sinvce October.

At Haddonfield, Clevenger was the Meet of Champions 3,200 champ and state Group 2 1,600 champ and ran 4:08.67 full mile as a senior. He placed 6th in July 2023 in the USATF Under-20 Championships in Eugene at 1,500 meters.

Also in the race is Cornell’s Peyton Shute from Woodbury. He hasn’t run a 3,000 in college but has PRs of 3:52.84 for 1,500 meters, 4:08.01 for the mile and 24:08.03 for a XC 8K in November 2024 at Princeton University’s Meadows course in West Windsor Township.

Sianni Wynn speeds to #5 200, #6 55 in U.S. at SJTCA Elite at the Ott Center!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pennsauken senior Sianni Wynn ran the fastest 55-meter dash and the fastest 200 in New Jersey this year Wednesday at the SJTCA Shoe Company Elite at the Ott Center.

Wynn won the 55 in 6.90 and the 200 in 23.49. Wynn’s 6.90 is 6th-fastest in the U.S. this year, according to the MileSplit national database, and her 200 is 5th-fastest.

Wynn has indoor PRs of 6.73 in the 55, tied with Michelle Glover for the state record, and 23.31, which is the state record. She’s No. 6 in U.S. history in the 55 and No. 12 in the 200.

Outdoors, Wynn is No. 2 in state history in the 100 at 11.29, No. 2 in the 200 at 23.05 and No. 6 in the 400 at 52.80.

In the 55, Wynn led Willingboro junior Maya Bolden to a PR of 7.17 in 2nd place and Rancocas Valley senior Angelina Brown to a PR 7.19 in 3rd. Bolden and Brown are now No. 4 and No. 5 in New Jersey this year and No. 7 and 9 all-time Burlington County.

In the 200, Wynn led Atlantic Tech junior Brianna Growalt and Willingboro junior Jade Pinder under 25 seconds with Growalt PR’ing at 24.78 and Pinder 24.79. Growalt and Pinder are now No. 6 and 7 in the state in the 200. Growalt’s 24.78 broke the Atlantic County record of 24.83 set by Egg Harbor Township’s Lauren Princz at the 2020 Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze. Pinder’s 24.79 is No. 3 all-time Burlington County.

Glassboro sophomore Moses Robles pops #2 long jump in New Jersey this year, #3 all-time Gloucester County, at Ott Center!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glassboro sophomore Moses Robles, already No. 5 in New Jersey this year in the triple jump and tied for No. 4 in the high jump, moved into the No. 2 spot in the long Wednesday at the SJTCA Shoe Company Elite at the Ott Center.

Robles jumped 22-9 ¾ on his 3rd and final attempt to win the long jump by 20 inches and improve his lifetime best from 22-4 ¾ from a meet at the Armory last month. His wind-legal outdoor PR is 20-5 from the freshman long jump at West Philly Nationals last June at Franklin Field.

Robles is currently the No.1 sophomore in New Jersey in both horizontal jumps and No. 2 in the high jump behind Cherry Hill West’s Supreme Stratford, who cleared 6-8 last week. He’s the No. 1 all-time sophomore in Gloucester County in all three events.

He’s also top-ranked in New Jersey Group 1 this year in all three jumps. He’s also No. 3 all-time in Gloucester County in the long jump behind two Woodbury jumpers – Anthony Averet with his 23-7 ¾ at 2012 Easterns at the Armory and Maurice Hunter with a 23-4 ½ in 1983 at a meet I haven’t been able to determine (but not Easterns, which was one of the few meets that had an indoor long jump back then. I should know this because I was working for The Gloucester County Times back then but I don’t!).

St. Augustine’s Marc Maccario runs fastest 400 in New Jersey this year and #3 all-time Atlantic County at SJTCA Elite!!!!!!!!!!

St. Augustine senior Marc Maccario ran the fastest 400 in New Jersey this year Wednesday evening at the Ott Center.

Maccario won the 400 at the Shoe Company Elite Invitational in 48.77, 3rd-fastest in Atlantic County history behind Xander Roberts-Bogin of Pleasantville [48.45 in 2022] and Amir Brock of Egg Harbor [48.48 in 2017]. National hurdles champ Sincere Rhea won the Meet of Champions outdoors in 2019 and ran 47.89 but never ran a 400 indoors.

Maccario ran 48.33 outdoors at last year’s Meet of Champions at Pennsauken, but his indoor PR prior to Wednesday was a 49.34 from earlier this month, also at the Ott Center.

Maccario was first through 200 in 22.67 and came back in 26.10, leading four other runners under 50 seconds.

Junior John Froelich was 2nd in 49.42, an Overbrook school record, and Eastern senior Ashton Gage placed 3rd in 49.42, 12th-fastest on the all-time Camden County indoor list. Moorestown senior Sean Sobin, who never ran until last year’s outdoor season, dropped his lifetime best from 5.19 at last year’s outdoor sectionals at Delsea all the way down to 49.78, 10th-fastest all-time Burlington County and 2nd in school history indoors to Brandon Outlaw’s 47.90 at 2017 Armory Nationals. Also under 50 was Rancocas Valley senior Julian Coppage-Seepersaud, who PR’d at 49.82 and broke the school indoor record of 50.23 set in 2017 by Brian Merriman at Ocean Breeze.

Maccario, Froelich, Gate, Sobin and Coppage-Seepersaud now rank No. 1, 7, 8, 13 and 14 in New Jersey this year.

Also racing into the current New Jesey top-25 were Egg Harbor Township junior Xavier Aucule [50.13], Timber Creek junior Timothy Whitaker [50.14] and Winslow senior Prince Owusu-Twum [50.15].

Haddonfield’s Dylan Hosty smashes South Jersey freshman 800 record!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In her first high school 800, Haddonfield’s Dylan Hosty smashed the South Jersey freshman indoor 800 record Wednesday at the Ott Center.

Hosty ran 2:14..66, breaking the South Jersey freshman class record of 2:14.99 set by Washington Township’s Kami Joi Hickson when she won the 2017 state Group 4 race at the Bubble.

Hosty’s time is No. 6 in Camden County history and No. 5 in New Jersey this year. Her time is 4th-fastest among U.S.  freshmen this year behind according to the MileSplit database.

Carly Godfrey of Ocean City is No. 1 in South Jersey this indoor season with her 2:14.13 last week at Ocean Breeze, and Hosty is now No. 2.

Hosty ran negative splits of 68.18 and 66.49, closing in 31.83 for her final 200. This was Hosty’s first high school 800, but she did run 2:18.90 indoors last year on the same track against high school runners as an 8th-grader at Haddonfield Middle School.

Haddonfield senior Riley Austin was 2nd in 2:17.30, Cherokee senior Sofia Recinto placed 3rd in 2:18.73, West Deptford senior Kayla Romanoski ran 2:18.76 for 4th, Winslow sophomore Amariah Arango took 5th in 2:19.31, and Mainland Regional senior Madison Taylor was 6th in 2:19.39.
