Huge day for Georgian Court freshman Daizhae’ Brown from Mays Landing and Cedar Creek High School at the Coastal Athletic Conference Championships over the weekend in Lakewood.
Brown won two events and had a hand in 38 of Georgian Court’s 147 points in a meet they won by 18 points over Goldey-Beacom of Pike Creek Valley, Del.
Brown won the long jump with a PR 18-10 ½ with legal wind (+0.9), won the triple jump with a PR 34-2 ¾ on her only legal jump since there were no other competitors (+0.0), ran 12.39 with legal wind (-0.9) for 2nd place in the 100, placed 5th in the high jump at 4-11 ¾ and anchored the 3rd-place 400-meter relay team, which ran 49.65.
Her long jump is No. 4 in school history and her triple jump and high jump marks are both No. 10.
Brown is already 4th on the all-time Georgian Court performance list in the 100 at 12.26 from a meet last month at Millersville.
The Lions won their 9th consecutive CAC team title, all under head coach Mike Murawski of Cinnaminson and a state high jump champion at Holy Cross.
