Premier Wynn blazed the fastest 400 of his life Friday and led all qualifiers in the prelims of the MEAC Championships.

Wynn, a Norfolk State sophomore from Pennsauken, ran 46.00 in the second of four heats on his home track. Teammate Vincent Bond was the next-fastest qualifier for Saturday’s final with a 46.86 in the third heat.

Wynn’s previous PR was a 46.38 in his last race, on April 12 in Durham, N.C.  Before that, it was a 46.64 indoors in Virginia Beach in February.

Wynn will be in Lane 5 for the final, which is scheduled for 2:05 p.m. Saturday.

His time is 6^th-fastest all-time by a South Jersey quarter-miler. Here’s my best effort at an all-time top-10:

44.30 … Lamont Smith [Willingboro], June 19, 1996, Atlanta
45.26 … Dennis Mitchell [Edgewood], April 12, 1986, Tampa, Fla.
45.31 … Gabirle Moronta [Pleasantville], April 5, 2025, Gainesville, Fla.
45.49 … Darrell Bush [Woodbury], April 11, 2015, Tucson, Ariz.
45.98 … Antonio Abney [Willingboro], May 29, 2010, Charlotte, N.C.
46.00 … Premier Wynn [Pennsauken], May 16, 2025, Norfolk, Va.
46.05 … Schefer Sherrer [Vineland], May 18, 2005, Levelland, Texas
46.13 … Brandon Outlaw [Moorestown], May 15, 2021, Raleigh, N.C.
46.19 … Maurice Ransome [Vineland], May 23-25, 1990, Naperville, Ill.
46.26 … Marvin Lewis [Willingboro], July 29, 2010, Nairobi, Kenya

Moorestown’s Will Inglis, a sophomore at Elizabethtown, ran the a huge 800 PR and the 7^th-fastest time in school history Thursday in Williamstown, Mass.

Inglis ran 1:52.37 and placed 3^rd in the All-Atlantic Region Track and Field Conference Championships at Williams College.

His previous PR was a 1:53.49 just last week when he placed 2^nd in the Landmark Conference Championships in Selinsgrove, Pa. Inglis never ran under 1:57 until last month at Millersville, and his PR before he arrived at E-town was a 2:02.10 at 2023 South Jersey Group 3 Sectionals at Delsea. He ran 2:00.31 indoors as a freshman at the Armnory but incredibly didn’t break two minutes until April 4.

Now he’s one of the fastest in school history and 6^th-fastest in NCAA Division 3 Mid-Atlantic Region.

This isn’t a meet where you can double the 800 and 1,500, but at the conference meet Inglis PR’d in the 1,500 with a giant PR of 3:53.42. His previous best was a 4:04.93 two weeks earlier in York, Pa., and before that 4:18.94, also in York.

Inglis’s 3:53.42 is the equivalent of a 4:12.09 for a full mile or 4:10.62 for 1,600 meters. His high school PR was 4:35.53 in May of 2023 at Delsea, so he’s gotten 25 seconds faster in two years.

His 3:53.42 is 3^rd-fastest in school history and fastest in 18 years, since Patrick Donovan ran 3:51.61 at Swarthmore in May 2007. It’s 8^th-fastest in the Mid-Atlantic Region.

Camden Catholic’s Leah Clear ran the 4th-fastest 1,500 in Delaware history Thursday afternoon at the Coastal Athletic Conference Championships.

Clear, a Delaware sophomore from Cherry Hill, ran a lifetime-best 4:26.51 at North Carolina AT&T in Greensboro and placed 6th after qualifying for the final with a 4:33.81 on Wednesday. She closed in 69.74

Tht moves her less than 1 ½ seconds off the all-time South Jersey alumni top-10. West Deptford’s Megan McGlinchey is currently No. 10 at 4:25.21.

Clear had a PR of 4:35.73 as a freshman from a meet in Charlottesville. She lowered it to 4:33.33 in Raleigh in March and then had a huge breakthrough in Princeton two weeks ago with a 4:26.89 before PR’ing again Thursday.

Clear’s high school PR was 5:13.56 for 1,600 meters from the 2023 state Parochial A meet in Somerset. Her race Thursday converts to a 4:46.15 for 1,600 meters, so she’s now 27 ½ seconds faster than she was two years ago.

Of the three Delaware runners ahead of her on the all-time Delaware list, the two most-recent didn’t run this fast as freshmen or sophomores. Mary Schilly ran 4:23.0 in 1980 but there’s no way to figure out what she ran in her first two seasons. So Clear at worst is the fastest freshman or sophomore at Delaware in 45 years.

Sprinters Eli Hendricks, a sophomore from Penns Grove, and Rajahn Dixon, a freshman from Eastern, ran two of the fastest times in Rowan history Monday evening at the Widener Final Qualifier in Chester, Pa.

Hendricks lowered his PR from 21.34 from last month in Atlanta to 21.21 wind and Dixon lowered his PR from 21.34 indoors at the Ott Center in February to 21.22 in the same race. There was a legal wind reading of 0.5.

With Bridgeton’s Shamar Love already at 21.18 from the NJAC Championships in Ewing earlier this month and Highland’s Robert McKinney at 21.29 from Atlanta last month, Rowan now has four sprinters under 21.30. They’re ranked 15th, 21st, 23rd and 35th in NCAA Division 3 this year.

On my “best-attempt-at-an” all-time Rowan list, Love, Hendricks, Dixon and McKinney are No. 2, 3, 4 and 6 in school history

20.91 … Jah’mere Beasley [Sterling], NCAA Division 3, Geneva, Ohio, May 28, 2022 [+1.9]
21.18 … Shamar Love [Bridgeton], NJAC Championships, Ewing, May 3, 2025 [+1.4]
21.21 … Eli Hendricks [Penns Grove], Widener Final Qualifier, Chester, Pa., May 12, 2025 [+0.5]
21.22 … Rajahn Dixon [Eastern], Widener Final Qualifier, Chester, Pa., May 12, 2025 [+0.5]

21.39 … Evan Corcoran [Kingsway], NJAC Championships, Ewing, May 3, 2025 [+1.4]
21.42 … Amara Conte [Ferris], NJAC Championships, Mahwah, N.J., May 6, 2023 [+0.9]

Kingsway’s Noemi Haller ran one of the fastest freshman 400s in South Jersey history Monday at Spartan Sprint Night at Deptford.

Haller lowered her PR from 57.04 from South Jersey Elite at Delsea earlier this month to 55.98 in only her 3^rdmajor outdoor 400. She ran 59.06 indoors at Ocean Breeze.

Haller’s time is fastest this year by a New Jersey freshman, and it’s 9^th-fastest overall. It’s No. 3^rd-fastest among South Jersey quarter-milers, behind Sianni Wynn’s South Jersey-record 52.80 and Natalie Dumas’s 54.06.

It’s also No. 10 all-time in Gloucester County. She broke the Kingsway school record of 56.24 set by Thaila Cooper when she won the 400 at the 2013 state Group 3 meet in South Plainfield. Cooper also previously held the Gloucester County freshman record with a 57.53 at the 2012 Meet of Champions at Old Bridge.

Wynn set the South Jersey freshman record of 53.97 at Group 4 states two years ago in Somerset.

Winslow’s Jasmine Jackson ran the fastest hurdles race ever by a South Jersey freshman Saturday at the Camden County Championships.

Because there was no wind gauge at Haddon Township the performance isn’t eligible for record purposes, but Jackson won the 100-meter highs in 14.12, lowering her PR from 14.20 from FAT Wednesday at Cherokee. Her legal-wind PR is 14.30 from South Jersey Elite at Delsea. That currently stands as the official South Jersey freshman record. 

Pleasantville’s Isabella Alvarez is 2nd-fastest on that list with her 14.55 on Saturday at the Cape Atlantic Championships at Buena. She has a 14.41 to her credit from the Atlantic County meet earlier this month at Egg Harbor, also with no wind gauge.

The only faster any-conditions times on record by New Jersey freshmen are by two graduates of the Scotch Plains-based Central Jersey all-star program – four-time Olympic gold medalist Sydney McLaughlin ran 13.34 at 2014 Greensboro Nationals and current senior Taylor Cox ran 13.93 at 2022 Parochial A states in Middletown.

As for wind-legal times, Jackson is 4th behind McLaughlin, Cox and another Scotch Plains all-star, Amaya Chadwick, who ran 14.26 at 2015 Greensboro Nationals.

Her 14.12 is No. 16 in South Jersey condition regardless of wind readings, 4th-fastest in New Jersey this year and No. 1 in South Jersey.

Jackson also won the 100 in a PR 12.09 at the Camden County meet. That’s No. 13 in New Jersey this year.

Winslow junior Ma’Syiah Brawner won three events and placed in a 4^th, recorded the top triple jump mark in New Jersey this year, PR’d in the hurdles and won her only high jump competition this year Saturday at the Camden County Championships at Haddon Township.

Brawner has competed in 12 events at the county meet in three years with nine 1sts, one 2^nd and two 3rds.

Brawner won the high jump at 5-0, the long jump at 18-0 ½ and the triple jump with a state-leading 40-0. She ran 14.61 for 3^rd in the hurdles.

She now ranks No. 1 in New Jersey this year in the triple jump, No. 1 in the long jump with a wind-legal 19-7 at South Jersey Elite and 12^th in the hurdles. This was her first time high jumping this year, but she has a PR of 5-5. She has horizontal jump PRs of 19-7 ½ and 40-6 ½.

Winslow won the Large-School title by 145 points, 238-93 over Cherry Hill West.

Here’s a look at what Brawner has done in her first three county meets.

2023: 1^st High Jump [5-2], 1^st Long Jump [17-10 ½], 1^st Triple Jump [38-2 ¾], 2^nd hurdles [15.49]
2024: 1^st High Jump [5-0], 1^st Long Jump [18-11 ½], 1^st Triple Jump [37-10], 3^rd hurdles [15.40]
2025: 1^st High Jump [5-0], 1^st Long Jump [18-0 ½], 1^st Triple Jump [40-0], 3^rd hurdles [14.61]

Abdulazeez Iyiola, a Mount St. Mary’s freshman from Palmyra, won the 400-meter hurdles and placed 2^nd in the 110-meter high hurdles Sunday at the MAAC Championships in Lawrenceville.

First, Iyiola took 2^nd in the high hurdles in 14.49, a lifetime best and tied for 5^th-fastest in school history. It’s 2^nd-fastest by a Mount hurdler in the last 23 years, behind only school record holder Richard Gilchrist, who ran 13.89 in Fairfax in May of 2023. (Mount St. Mary’s all-time list shows Gilchrist with a 13.76 in a meet at High Point, N.C., a few weeks earlier, but that was wind aided at 3.2). Wind was 0.7 for Iyiola’s race.

Iyiola was 3^rd-fastest qualifier with a then-PR 14.51 in Saturday’s trials. Before this weekend, his fastest time over the 42-inch highs was a 14.75 in Harrisonburg, Va., in April, but that was wind-aided. Every other race he ran this spring wasa wind aided, so he technically did not have a PR until Saturday’s trials.

In the intermediates, Iyiola ran away from the field in 54.12, winning by two meters over Connor Ziolkowski of St. Peter’s, who was 2^nd in 54.41.

Iyiola’s college 400 hurdles PR is a 53.39 from last month in High Point, No. 5 in school history. He ran 54.38 in Saturday’s trials. At Palmyra he ran 53.15 when he placed 3^rd at last year’s Meet of Champions at Pennsauken.

Princeton’s Greg Foster from Lumberton shattered the meet record in the hurdles Sunday with his 2^nd win of the weekend at the Ivy League Championships.

Foster, who won the long jump on Saturday, ran 13.78 in Sunday’s hurdles final, smashing his PR of 13.83 and shattering the meet record of 13.80 set in 2019 by Princeton’s Joseph Daniels at Princeton. Wind was a legal +0.5.

The two Ivy titles are the 5^th and 6^th of his college career. The hurdles title was his first.

Foster is also closing in on Daniels’ school record of 13.70, which he ran twice – at the Canadian Championships in Ottawa in July, 2018 and again at NCAAs in Austin the following June. Foster is No. 2 in school history.

Foster, who missed last spring season to have foot surgery, is one of four South Jersey collegians who’s run sub-13.85 this spring. St. Augustine’s Sincere Rhea of Texas Tech has run 13.48, Riverside’s Jamir Brown of Rowan has run 13.60 and Washington Township’s Yashahya Brown ran 13.82.

On Saturday, Foster won the long jump with a 25-3 ½ (wind-aided at 2.2). He had a legal 24-9 ¼. He has a legal PR of 26-1 ¾ from 2023 Ivys at Franklin Field.

Here’s a look at Foster’s 10 top-three finishes in Ivy League conference championships competition:

2023 Indoor
1^st – Long Jump [25-9 ½]
2^nd – Triple Jump [50-7 ½]
2023 Outdoors
1^st – Long Jump [26-1 ¾]
2^nd – Triple Jump [50-2 ¾]
2024 Indoors
1^st – Long Jump [25-2]
2^nd – Triple Jump [50-2]
2025 Indoors
1^st – Long Jump [24-10 ½]
3^rd – 60-Meter Hurdles [7.85]
2025 Outdoors
1^st – Long Jump [25-3 ½]
1^st – 110-Meter Hurdles [13.78]

Lauren Fadairo PR’d in the triple jump and broke the Quinnipiac school record Sunday at the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Championships in Lawrenceville.

Fadairo, a freshman from Rancocas Valley, PR’d four times Sunday at Rider and finished 4^th at 39-5 ¾.

Rider senior Mariah Stephens from Egg Harbor Township finished just behind Fadairo in 5^th place with a 39-4 ½. Her PR is 39-10 from a meet in April of 2023 at the same track at Rider.

Fadairo entered the meet with a PR of 38-9 ½ from a meet last month in Lewisburg. After opening Sunday with a 38-0 ¼, she PR’d with a wind-legal 38-11 ¾ and followed that with wind-aided jumps of 39-5 ¼ (2.6) and 39-5 ¾ (2.3). But the wind died down for her 5^th jump, and she sailed 39-5 ¾ again, this time with a legal 1.7 tailwind.

Quinnipiac lists the school record as 39-6 ¾ by Britney Del Mundo in 2020. But the Quinnipiac all-time performance list – and good for them for actually having one – but it combines indoor and outdoor marks without any designation which is which. And it turns out Del Mundo hit that 39-6 ¾ indoors (twice), and her best outdoor mark was a 38-4 at the 2022 MAAC Championships, also at Lawrenceville.

Which means Fadairo actually already had the school outdoor record, and she broke her own mark on Sunday.
