Deptford senior Mason Henry cleared 15-0 for the second time this year Saturday at Ocean Breeze and is New Jersey’s top pole vaulter heading into sectionals.

Henry first cleared 15-0 at Ocean Breeze on Jan. 12 and did it again Saturday to win the Ocean Breeze Invitational. He cleared 13-0, 13-6, 14-0, 14-6 and 15-0 on his 1^st attempts before taking three jumps at 15-2.

Henry is tied for No. 7 in South Jersey history, and tied for No. 6 in Gloucester County history. Of the 10 South Jersey vaulters to clear 15-0 indoors, only three are from outside Gloucester County.

This has been quite a breakthrough season for Henry, who cleared 13-6 once indoors last year, when he placed 4^th at the state Group 3 meet at the Bubble, and then cleared 13-6 twice last spring, both times at Delsea.

He PR’d at the Millrose Trials last month with a 13-9 and then had his 1^st 15-0 clearance on Jan. 12 in a SJTCA meet at Ocean Breeze.

Marcus Hood holds the Deptford school record with a 15-6 at the Bubble this past February and jumped 15-9 outdoors at West Philly Nationals in June.

Henry also PR’d in the high jump with a 6-0 at the state relays, where he teamed with senior Kaden Roane to place 4^th. He’s 10^th in South Jersey in the high jump.

Haddonfield senior Benjamin Andrus ran the 9^th-fastest 1,600 in South Jersey history Saturday at Ocean Breeze.

Andrus ran 4:14.39 for a full mile at the 11^th annual Ocean Breeze Invitational, and that converts to 4:12.91 for 1,600 meters.

(The event is listed in the schedule and on the heat sheets as a mile but the splits are shown in 200-meter increments, which indicates a 1,600, so I’m not sure exactly how far they ran, but I’m going to assume it’s a full mile and the distances on the splits are incorrect. Correct me if I’m wrong!)

Andrus was out in 65.04 and 64.24 but came back in 62.79 and 60.70 for crazy negative 880 splits of 2:10.91 and 2:03.49. Bobby Franklin of La Salle College High in Springfield, Montgomery County, won the race in 4:13.25.

Andrus’s time is 9^th-fastest in South Jersey history and 3^rd-fastest all-time from Haddonfield, behind Luke Andresen’s 4:10.82 at the Meet of Champions, also at Ocean Breeze, and Greg Pelose’s 4:11.93 converted mile from 2016 Armory Nationals.

It’s fastest in New Jersey this year, just ahead of Kennan Byers of Randolph, who ran 4:14.72 full mile at the Armory last month.

Andrus has an outdoor PR of 4:13.60 from this past June in Lincroft. His previous indoor PR was 4:17.48 from last year’s Meet of Champions, also at Ocean Breeze.

In the same race, Haddonfield senior Peter Simpson ran placed 4^th in 4:18.49, closing in 63.16. That converts to 4:16.99.

Ocean City’s Elaina Styer broke her own Stockton University hurdles record Sunday at the Ott Center.

Styer, who spent her freshman year at Cornell, first broke the school record when she ran 9.03 at Tufts University in Medford, Mass., last March. She tied the record with another 9.03 at Ocean Breeze in December and then lowered it to 8.93 at Ocean Breeze. After a near-record 8.95 in Lynchburg, Va., last weekend, she smashed the 8.93 by winning the Widener Schuyhill Showdown Sunday in 8.89.

Her time is No. 15 in NCAA Division 3 and fastest in the New Jersey Athletic Conference.

Styer, fom Estelle Manor, also placed 2^nd in the high jump with a 5-3 clearance and 2^nd in the long jump with a 17-6. She’s jumped 18-0 ½ this winter and has a high jump PR of 5-5 ¼ from her NJAC pentathlon win, also at the Ott Center, last February. She also has PRs of 15.41 in the 100-meter highs and 3.628 in the pentathlon.

In her first full-effort race this winter, Eastern senior Natalie Dumas ran the 6^th-fastest 600 in U.S. scholastic history Sunday at the 118^th annual Millrose Games.

Dumas won the race in 1:28.10, which is 58.73 pace for 400 meters with an extra lap added on. Dumas won national titles in the 400, 800 and intermediate hurdles last year at West Philly Nationals.

The only faster time in New Jersey history is the national high school recordk, American record and world all-time No. 3 1:23.57 set by Olympic gold medalist Athing Mu of Trenton at Ocean Breeze in February 2019.

Dumas’s time is No. 9 in the world this year, according to the World Athletics international performance list and No. 2 among American women, behind U.S. 1,000 record holder Addison Wiley, who ran 1:27.33 in Indianapolis two weeks ago.

It’s fastest in the world among juniors (Under-20) and fastest by any Under-20 American since Sophia Gorriaran ran 1:27.51 at the Armory in 2023. It appears to be 7^th-fastest ever by a U.S. woman in the Under-20 category, although I could be missing one or two people. There is no all-time U.S. 600 junior list anywhere. Thanks for nothing, USATF!

Dumas was out in 27.51 and 29.78 so came through 400 in 57.28 and closed in 30.83. Jane Hickey of New Rochelle, N.Y., placed 2^nd in 1:28.26 with Ellie Barada of Bloomington, Ind., also under 1:29 at 1:28.35. Their times are 7th- and 8th-fastest in U.S. high school history.

Dumas slashed more than six  seconds off the South Jersey record of 1:34.50 set in 2002 by Willingboro’s Okechi Ogbuokiri at the 2003 Bishop Loughlin Games at the Armory.

This was the first career 600 for Dumas. She has PRs of 51.14 for 400 meters, 2:00.11 for 800 and 55.99 in the intermediate hurdles, all from West Philly Nationals in June.

Sophomore Amariah Arango, sophomore Jasmine Jackson, senior Olivia Okaro and junior Cinniya Robinson won the Invitational 1,600-Meter Relay Sunday at the 118^th Millrose Games Sunday at the Armory with the 7^th-fastest time in state history and 3^rd-fastest time in the U.S. this year.

Winslow ran 3:46.06 and won by 35 meters over 2^nd-place Oak Park (Mich.), which ran 3:51.03.

This is Winslow’s 4^th Millrose Games 4-by-4 championship, and their time is fastest ever run by a South Jersey school at Millrose.

Arango led off with a 55.92 split that gave Winslow a 25-meter lead at the first handoff, and Jackson split 57.99 to extend the lead to 30 meters. Okaro ran 56.60 to maintain the lead and Robinson brought Winslow home with a 56.69 anchor.

Their time is 3^rd-fastest in South Jersey history, behind only Winslow’s South Jersey-record 3:44.74 this past March at Boston Nationals and Willingboro’s 3:45.37 at 2003 Armory Nationals.

The time is also 3^rd-fastest in the U.S., according to the MileSplit national database, behind something called APXP Speed Development, which is apparently Atascotita High of Houston and ran 3:42.26 in College Station, Texas, earlier this month, and Monteverde (Fla.) Academy, which ran 3:44.14 in Virginia Beach earlier this month.

Winslow also won Millrose in 2017 in 3:52.17 in 2017 with Iyianna Williams, Flora Ahiarakwe, Janeya Hammond and Shakira Dancy, in 2018 with Nylah Perry, Dancy, Hammond and Ahiarakwe in 3:54.99 and in 2024 in 3:49.50 with Okaro and Robinson in the lineup along with Djassi Dean and Skyhe Seamon.

South Jersey schools have now won 13 Millrose Games girls suburban 1,600-meter relays, including six of the last nine.

In a separate race, Willingboro ran a season-best 3:58.49 with Aaliyah Robinson, Jade Pinder, Trinity Brapoh and Maya Bolden. That’s 2^nd-fastest in New Jersey this year, behind only Winslow.

The Woodstown boys ran the 13th-fastest 3,200-meter relay in South Jersey history Sunday at the 118th Millrose Games at the Armory.

Senior leadoff Karson Chew split 1:56.42 and senior anchor Josh Crawford 1:54.42 and Woodstown ran 7:55.62, becoming the 4th-fastest Group 1 school in state history.

That’s a Penn Relays qualifier, although Woodstown won’t be able to race at Franklin Field the last weekend of April.

Woodstown finished 7th overall and 2nd among New Jersey schools, behind Union Catholic’s state-record and meet-record 7:37.96.

After Chew’s leadoff, senior Jacob Marino split 2:01.39 and junior David Farrell 2:03.40 before Crawford’s anchor, 3rd-fastest anchor of 13 schools that qualified for the race.

The only faster New Jersey Group 1 schools are Pleasantville’s 7:45.55 when they won 2013 Easterns at the Armory and two Bernards performances from the 1980s converted from two-mile relays. Bernards ran a converted 7:54.18 in 1984 and 7:45.5 in 1983.

Woodstown also only lowered its own Salem County record from its 8:00.24 at Millrose Trials earlier this month it ran the fastest time by any South Jersey school indoors in six years, since Kingsway’s 7:47.50 when it won the 2020 Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze.

Florence’s Curtis Thompson earned his 5th straight No. 1 U.S. ranking in the javelin and became the first American ranked in the top 10 in 19 years in Track and Field News’ 2025 U.S. and world ranking issue.

This is Thompson’s 10th consecutive year in the U.S. top 10. He’s the first U.S. thrower to make the world top-10 since Breaux Greer was No. 3 in 2007.

Thompson in 2025 became only the 3rd American to medal in the javelin at the World Championships when he placed 3rd in Tokyo with a throw of 284-4. That was the 2nd-best throw ever by an American at Worlds. In 2001, Greer threw 285-5 when he placed 4th in Edmonton, Alberta.

Thompson, a 2014 Florence High School graduate, this past year also won his 5th U.S. title and threw a lifetime-best 287-11 in Austin, 3rd-best in U.S. history.

Thompson, 29, turns 30 later this week.

Glassboro’s Erika Townsend recorded the 4th-best indoor long jump by a South Jersey freshman Saturday in Toms River.

Townsend won the long jump at the Olympic & Tri-County Meet at the Bubble with a PR 17-11 ½ on her 2nd attempt. Her previous PR was a 17-3 ¼ at the Ott Center two weeks ago.

South Jersey’s top three freshman indoor jumpers are Leah Ellis of Millville, who jumped 19-3 at 2019 Easterns at the Armory, Winslow’s Tionna Tobias, who went 18-9 at 2016 Easterns at the Armory and Pleasantville’s Isabella Alvarez, who jumped 18-4 this past March at the Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze (but has yet to compete this year).

Olympian Carol Lewis jumped 21-7 ¾ outdoors as a freshman but apparently did not compete indoors as a 9th-grader in the winter of 1978.

According to the MileSplit U.S. database, her jump is tied for 7th nationally among freshmen.

Townsend opened with a 16-11 and finished with a 17-9, so her three jumps averaged 17-6 ½, beyond her previous PR.

Townsend’s jump puts her at No. 7 in New Jersey this year and No. 1 among Group 1 jumpers. It’s also 7 on the all-time Gloucester County list.

Pennsauken senior Sianni Wynn ran within 6-100ths of a second of her state record in the 200 Saturday at the Ott Center.

Wynn, who set the state record of 23.31 in March when she won the Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze, ran 23.37 to win the Penn Relays Winter Showcase.

They’re the two-fastest times in New Jersey indoor track history.

Wynn’s time is 4th-fastest in the country according to MileSplit’s national database. Seniors Mia and Mariah Maxwell of Atascocita High of Humble, Texas, ran 22.89 and 22.97 in a meet earlier this month in College Station, Texas, and freshman Melanie Dodgett of Landmark Christian School in Fairburn, Ga., ran 23.25 last month in Birmingham, Ala.

Wynn also won the 60 in 7.36, fastest in New Jersey this year and just 7-100ths of a second off her state-record 7.29 from Armory Nationals in March. The only other New Jersey girl to run as fast as 7.36 is Myasia Jacobs of Paramus Catholic, who ran 7.34 in 2011 Armory Nationals.

Wynn officially came through 55 meters in 6.86, also 3rd-fastest nationally this year. She shares the state record of 6.73 with Willingboro legend Michelle Glover, who ran 6.73 in 1981.

Holy Cross senior Julia Flanagan ran the 2nd-fastest 3,000 in South Jersey history Saturday at the Ott Center.

Flanagan ran 9:53.03 and placed 4th in the Penn Relays Winter Showcase. The only faster record by a South Jersey girl is Liliah Gordon’s 9:39.04, an official en route time during her Meet of Champions 3,200 win at Ocean Breeze last March. The fastest previous time in a 3,00-meter race was Megan Lacy’s 9:53.39 at the 2011 Princeton Invitational at Jadwin Gym.

Flanagan was out in 2:34.79 and 5:15.22 before a 2:40.62 800 and closing in 1:47.20 for her final 600 and 37.45 for her final lap.

Her time is No. 23 nationally this year and No. 5 in New Jersey.
