Two races and two PRs for Washington Township’s Yashahya Brown, a sophomore at Hampton.
Brown ran 13.81 with a legal 0.7 tailwind in the trials of the Coastal Athletic Association Championships on Friday in Elon, N.C., and then placed 3rd in the final in 13.80 with a 0.5, another PR.
His time is No. 10 on the all-time South Jersey Alumni List.
Brown’s PR previously was 13.82, which he ran last year as a freshman at Rutgers in a meet in Tampa. His best time at Hampton before this weekend was 14.03 in Lynchburg, Va., earlier this month, and his best previous wind-legal time this year was 14.09 in Greensboro, N.C., last month.
