Riverside’s Jamir Brown, a Penn State sophomore, ran the 6^th-fastest 60-meter hurdles race ever by a New Jersey athlete Saturday on his home track in State College.

After a near-PR 7.72 in the trials, Brown ran 7.63 in the final at the Nittany Lion Challenge, 3^rd-fastest in school history and 3^rd-fastest in NCAA Division 1 this year.

The only faster hurdlers South Jersey has produced are Anwar Moore of Camden, who ran 7.50 in Boston in 2008, and Olympic bronze medalist Jack Pierce of Woodbury, who ran 7.52 in Fairfax, Va., in 1995.

Brown set an NCAA Division 3 record of 7.72 last year at Ocean Breeze while competing for Rowan and also set a D-3 outdoor record with his 13.60 in the trials of the NJAC Championships in Ewing.

He lowered his PR to 7.71 at a meet in Ithaca last month in his Syracuse debut. This was his 2^nd meet competing for the Orangemen.

Almost simultaneously with Brown’s race, Rutgers sophomore Chris Serrao from East Brunswick ran 7.68 at the Ott Center, which is now 9^th-fastest in state history.

Lumberton’s Greg Foster hit an indoor long jump PR Saturday morning with the No. 4 jump in NCAA Division 1 this year.

On his final attempt at the Quaker Invitational at the Ott Center, the Princeton senior jumped 25-11, a quarter of an inch beyond his indoor PR of 25-10 ¾ from January 2023 in Annapolis, Md.

That’s No. 2 in Princeton history behind Al Dyer’s 26-3 at the 1990 Manhattan Invitational.

Foster came within three inches of his lifetime legal-wind best of 26-1 ¾ from the 2023 Ivy League Championships at Franklin Field. That’s the Princeton outdoor school record.

Foster opened with a 25-4 ¾ and a 25-8 ¼ before popping his indoor PR, which is the best indoor jump by a South Jersey athlete since Carl Lewis’s final indoor meet, which was the 1992 U.S. Indoor Championships at Madison Square Garden, where he jumped 27-4 ¾.

Foster is also No. 3 in Princeton history in the 60-meter hurdles at 7.85 and No. 9 in the triple jump at 50-7 ½. Outdoors he’s No. 2 in the hurdles at 13.78. He is scheduled to hurdle later today. Foster hasn’t triple jumped since the 2024 Ivy League indoor championships in Cambridge, Mass.

In what looks like his first-ever collegiate triple jump competition, Cartrell Moore from Glassboro moved into the all-time Rider top-10.

Moore, a sophomore, jumped a lifetime-best 47-10 ½ on his 6th and final jump at the NYC Gotham Cup at Ocean Breeze Friday.

Moore jumped 46-6 ½ indoors and 46-10 outdoors in high school. According to his TFRRS profile, he only competed in two meets for Rider as a freshman, both indoors at the Ott Center, and only ran one 60, one 300 and one 4-by-4 leg. It appears Friday was his first meet in over a year, since Penn Select on Jan. 11, 2025.

So it would have been his first triple jump since he placed 3rd in the 2024 outdoor Meet of Champions at Pennsauken with that 46-10 on his final attempt.

Moore’s jump is No. 10 in Rider history indoors but only four inches out of the No. 7 spot. School record indoors is 49-6 ¾ set by Penns Grove’s Steven Brown at Lehigh in 2012.

Stockton junior Ahmad Fogg from Egg Harbor Township jumped an indoor PR 24-0 ½ at the Gotham Cup Friday at Ocean Breeze.

That’s No. 3 this year in NCAA Division 3, behind two Wisconsin-Oshkosh seniors – Joshua Rivera went 25-5 ½ at a meet last month in Oshkosh and Caleb Wright jumped 24-4 ½ at the same meet.

Fogg’s previous indoor PR was 23-6 ¾ in a meet in Ann Arbor, Mich., in January 2024 as a freshman at Penn State. His lifetime best is 24-1 from his win at the NJAC Championships in Ewing in May. Fogg also had a 23-6 ½ in his series on Friday.

Freshman Dylan Hosty and junior Molly Mills ran on the winning distance medley and 3,200-meter relay teams, and the Haddonfield girls won their record 11th state relays title Friday at the Bubble.

Hosty and Mills were joined by senior Riley Austin and junior Madison Kelsey on the DMR, which ran 12:17.03, and by senior Lauren Hamblin and sophomore Natalie Lacroce on the 4-by-8, which ran 9:49.53.

Haddonfield outsored 2nd-place Willingboro and Rumson-Fair Haven, 48-36, to win their 3rd straight Group 2 championship.

Haddonfield won Group 1 in 2000, 2001, 2003, 2014 and 2016 and won Group 2 in 2017, 2020, 2022, 2024 and 2025.

Haddonfield tied Willingboro and the Scotch Plains-based all-star program for most state relay titles since the meet’s inception in 1981.

Haddonfield also won the pole vault relay with junior junior Nina Fisicaro clearing 10-6 and junior Ema Lazarova 8-0.

Also for the Bulldogs, Austin, Fisicaro, sophomore Esme Thomas and junior Saya Sood ran 4:20.06 for 2nd in the sprint medley, junior Norah Campbell, junior Ansley Kazmarek, junior Finnley Ritter and Sood ran 35.69 for 3rd in the shuttle hurdles, and Hosty, Mills, senior Edith Green and freshman Scarlet Perry took 4th in the 4-by-4 in 4:13.28.

Willingboro won the shuttle hurdles, 800-meter relay and 1,600-meter relay. Junior Trinity Brapoh, sophomore Annalyse Brown, senior Jaden Murry and senior Aaliyah Robinson ran 33.04 to win the shuttles, freshman Angel Fynn, junior Jade Pinder, Murry and senior Kaila Speight won the 4-by-2 and Pinder, junior Maya Bolden, Robinson and Brapoh won the 4-by-4 in 4:05.00.

Brapoh cleared 5-0 and senior Briannah Gunning-Brown 4-8 for 3rd place in the high jump.

Lindenwold won the high jump relay with U.S. outdoor champ senior Egypt Bolan clearing 5-6 and senior Whitney Okeke 4-8.

Haddonfield won the 3,200-meter relay and placed 2nd in the distance medley, shuttle hurdles and sprint medley to win its 2nd straight Group 2 state relays title and 8th overall.

Haddonfield outscored 2nd-place Bernards 43-28, at the Bubble in Toms River with Willingboro 3rd with 26 points.

Haddonfield also won Group 1 in 1989, 1996, 2001, 2002, 2010 and 2014 and Group 2 last year.

Haddonfield won the 3,200-meter relay with Peter Simpson, Benjamin Andrus, Owen Snyder and Ryan Gibson running 8:19.84. Andrus, Jack P. Brand, Simpson and Snyder ran 10:39.74 and placed 2nd in the distance medley, and Ryder Bozine, Mark DiMedio, Andrew Brand and Brandon Stoner ran 3:42.32 for 2nd in the sprint medley.

Bozine, DiMedio, Mark Derets and Harrison Berman ran 31.21 and took 2nd in the shuttle hurdles.

Bozine cleared 5-10 and DiMedio 5-8 for a combined 11-6 and 2nd place in the high jump relay.

Haddonfield added a point with a 6th in the pole vault relay with senior Stone Tyson [11-0] and junior Gabe Rubin [8-6].

Willingboro won the pole vault relay with senior Zahir Bryant [11-6] and senior Dayron Neal [10-6] combined for 22 feet. The resulst show Willingboro getting 10 points in the shot put relay with senior Anthony Lim [42-0 ½] and senior Elijah Tolliver [37-9] combining to throw79-9 ½, but that isn’t right. The results don’t show totals, but Montville, Ocean Township and Cranford are well over 90 feet and Mendham is close. I’m not going to add up all the totals, so we’ll have to see once they correct the scoring.

Willingboro got 2nd in the 800-meter relay, with Zahir Bryant, Christopher Jones, Jaylen Taylor and Samir Walker running 1:34.21, and Overbrook was 3rd with Andrew Powell, Jaiden Mitchell, Axcel Bailey and John Froelich.

Pleasantville won the 800-meter relay in 1:34.18 with Qwasim Jackson, Jamaad Washington, Todd Watson and Raliel Wiggins.

Rancocas Valley’s Masai Byrd shattered Rowan’s 60-meter dash record Friday at Ocean Breeze.

Byrd ran 6.79, breaking the school record of 6.82 that Byrd ran in the trials at the AARTFC Championships in Ithaca in March. That broke the record of 6.83 that Byrd ran two weeks earlier at the NJAC Championships at the Ott Center.

Byrd’s time is 5^th-fastest in NCAA Division 3 this year and 2^nd-fastest in the NJAC behind TCNJ’s Maxim Rychkov of Robbinsville, who ran 6.77 at the Armory last month.

Byrd finished 2^nd in the race to post-collegiate Eloy Benitez of Puerto Rico, who ran 6.88. Benitez is the Puerto Rican national record holder at 60 meters with a 6.49 at the 2025 World Indoors in Nanjing, China.

Here’s my best attempt at an all-time South Jersey alumni 60-meter dash list:

6.53 … Dennis Mitchell [Edgewood], Feb. 6, 1994, Stuttgart, Germany
6.54 … Ajani Dwyer [Washington Twp.], Feb. 23, 2025, Staten Island, N.Y.
6.60 … Carl Lewis [Willingboro], Feb. 10, 1989, San Sebastián, Spain

6.71 … Malachi James [Burlington City], Feb. 24, 2024, Staten Island, N.Y.
6.72 … Anwar Moore [Camden], Dec. 7, 2003, Newport, England
6.75 … Jamil Benjamin [Cumberland Reg.], Dec. 5, 2008, Ames, Iowa
6.79 … Masai Byrd [Rancocas Valley], Jan. 16, 2026, Staten Island, N.Y.

Bordentown’s Dallas Hohney smashed the NCAA Division 3 record for 500 meters and broke the 42-year-old Rowan record along the way Friday at Oeaan Breeze.

Hohney ran 1:02.33 to win the 2 ½-lap race in the Gotham Cup Invitational. He broke the Division 3 record of 1:02.64 set in March by Basheer Alramahi of John Carroll at the Ohio Athletic Conference Championships at Ohio Northern University in Ada, Ohio.

Hohney took down the school record of 1:03.04 set by Willie Lawson at the 1984 IC4A Championships at Princeton’s Jadwin Gym.

Although it’s a D-3 record, it’s not a PR. Hohney ran 1:01.74 last January at the Ott Center as a Rider sophomore.

Teddy Wilson of Toms River North wasn’t far behind Hohney in 2^nd place in 1:03.18. That is now 5^th-fastest on the all-time D-3 list, which is posted on the USTFCCA web site.

Hohney ran 1:50.71 last January, 3rd-fastest in Rider history.

Ocean City’s Elaina Styer smashed her own Stockton University school record in the 60-meter hurdles Friday at Ocean Breeze.

After a near-PR 9.05 in the trials, Styer placed 2^nd in the final of the Gotham Cup in 8.93, breaking her school record of 9.03 that she set at a meet in March at Tufts University in Medford, Mass., and then matched at Ocean Breeze last month.

Her time is tied for 10^th-fastest on the 2026 NCAA Division 3 list with Rowan sophomore Nyla Jones from Timber Creek, who ran 8.93 last month on the same track.

Styer, from Estell Manor, has high jumped 5-5 ½ an long jumped 18-0 ½ so far this season. She’s not far off school records in both events – 5-6 by Lisa Sheperd of Oakcrest in 2008 and 18-4 ¼ by Jassina Surles from Williamstown in 2016.

Julia Flanagan ran the fastest mile in Holy Cross history indoors or out Wednesday at the Ott Center.

Flanagan placed 2nd in the Upper Dublin Winter Series in 5:02.25 for a full mile, which converts to 5:00.50 for 1,600 meters.

That breaks the overall Holy Cross record of 5:00.85 set by Kari Vigerstol when she won the 1993 outdoor Meet of Champions at South Plainfield.

It’s No. 10 in Burlington County history indoors and No. 22 on the all-time South Jersey list.

Flanagan finished behind only sophomore Julia Kelly of Downingtown West, who ran 5:00.66. Flanagan negatived 2:32.46 and 2:29.82, closing in 36.34 for her final 200.

This was Flanagan’s first race since the XC Meet of Champions, where she placed 10th after winning the state Parochial B title.
