Big 200 Saturday for Burlington Township junior Quayd Hendryx, who won the Burlington County Open with the 4th-fastest time in the meet’s 57 -year history.

Hendryx ran a big lifetime-best 21.72 (with no wind reading), which is 12th-fastest in any conditions in Burlington County history and trails only Olympic gold medalist Lamont Smith of Willingboro [hand-timed 21.4 in 1991], Lenape’s Rob Gary [hand-timed 21.2 in 1998] and Burlington’s Malachi James [meet-record 21.47 in 2024] in meet history.

Hendryx is the first Township sprinter to win the County Open 200 since Tim Carlock in 1999.The only other Falcon to win was Louis Smith in 1995 and 1996.

Coming into the meet, Hendryx had a PR of 22.08 from the BCSL Championships last weekend at Pennsauken. Hendryx, who has a FAT 10.83 dual meet time to his credit from last month, didn’t run the 100 Saturday at Lenape.

Hendryx is the fastest Burlington County junior since Michael Bolling of Willingboro ran 21.67 at the 2000 Meet of Champions at South Plainfield. (Remember, James was hurt his junior year and didn’t compete outdoors.)

Pennsauken junior Sianni Wynn ran a couple historic sprint times Saturday at the Camden County Championships, a meet that unfortunately did not have a wind guage.

Wynn won the 100 in 11.26 and the 200 in 23.26, but without wind readings the marks cannot be recognized for record purposes.

Regardless of conditions, her 11.26 is 2nd-fastest in state history, behind Timber Creek’s Naylah Jones’ 11.23 at last year’s state Group 3 Championships at Delsea with legal wind.

Her 23.26 is 3rd-fastest in state history in all conditions, behind only four-time Olympic gold medalist and world 400 hurdles record holder Sydney McLaughlin of Union Catholic, who ran 22.96 with legal wind at the 2017 state Parochial A meet at Egg Harbor, and Trenton’s Wenda Vereen, who ran 22.99 with unknown wind at the 1983 Jumbo Elliott Invitational at Villanova. The South Jersey legal 200 record is Jones’ 23.29 at states last year.

Wynn’s legal PRs are 11.36 from last year’s Meet of Champions on her home track at Pennsauken and 23.57 from the South Jersey Elite earlier this month at Delsea.

Regardless of conditions, Wynn is now 9th in the U.S. in the 100 and 24th in the 200, according to the MileSplit database.

Also note the addition of Willingboro senior Nester Wea on the all-time 200 list. Wea won the Burlington County Open in 23.84, which is 12th-fastest in state history regardless of conditions and 6th-fastest in South Jersey history. The only faster time ever recorded by a Burlington County sprinter was Willingboro’s Michele Glover’s 23.69 at the 1981 The Athletics Congress Championships at UCLA’s Drake Stadium in Westwood, Calif.

Freshman Dylan Giloley from Washington Township smashed the Rider school record in the 100 Saturday in the trials at the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Championships in Lawrenceville.

Giloley ran 11.81 with a legal 1.9 meters-per-second wind to break the school record of 11.95 set by La’tazah Coleman at the 2013 VCU Ram Invitational in Richmond, Va.

Giloley’s previous PR was a 12.03 three weeks ago at the Rider Invitational on the same track.

In the 100 trials, the only faster qualifier for Sunday’s final was Nyasia Dailey of Quinnipiac, who ran 11.74. That broke the meet record of 11.78 set in 2023 in Emmitsburg, Md., by Zionna Perez-Tucker of Mount St. Mary’s (who is now at Coastal Carolina).

Giloley’s time is 4th-fastest all-time by a Gloucester County high school alum, behind Gabrielle Farquharson of Williamstown [11.32 in 2016], Bria Mack of Williamstown [11.52 in 2018] and Shardae Anderson of Paulsboro [11.65 in 2007].

Giloley also PR’d in the 200, qualifying with a 24.77, the 3rd-fastest time into the final. Her previous PR was 24.99 from a meet at Durham, N.C., last month, and her 24.77 is 5th-fastest in Rider history. She had a legal wind reading of -0.1. She did run 24.89 indoors in Boston, 2nd-fastest in school history indoors.

The 100 final is scheduled for 1:20 p.m. Sunday and the 200 final at 2:15 p.m.

Camden junior Jaiden Steele ran the fastest 100 by a Camden County sprinter in 15 years Saturday at the Camden County Championships at Haddon Township.

Steele won the 100 in 10.63, tied for 5th-fastest in county history and fastest since Timber Creek’s Damiere Byrd ran 10.36 at 2011 Group 3 Sectionals at Egg Harbor.

Steele’s previous PR was a 10.68 when he won the state Group 2 title last spring at Delsea. His time is 2nd-fastest ever by a Camden sprinter behind Jamar Ervin’s former state-record 10.35 at the 2000 Meet of Champions at South Plainfield.

There are no wind readings listed so it appears that once again there was no wind gauge for a major South Jersey meet. So the performance has to be officially recorded as wind aided. It’s tied for 5th-fastest in county history in all conditions. His time is 7th-fastest in New Jersey this year and No. 2 among South Jersey sprinters.

Steele also won the 200 in a PR 21.75. That’s 9th-fastest in New Jersey this year and 3rd-fastest by a South Jersey sprinter.

It’s my sincere hope that meet directors will furnish wind gauge for all major championship meets so we can readings for the horizontal jumps and the sprints.

Glassboro’s Mekhi Parker goes into this weekend’s county meet as the top freshman in New Jersey in three events.

Parker ran 15.07 in the 110-meter hurdles in a FAT-timed dual meet at Schalick last month, he ran 56.76 in the Tri-County Conference Showcase at Delsea on Wednesday and he tripled jumped 43-2 ½ earlier this month at the South Jersey Elite, also at Delsea.

Parker is No. 2 in Gloucester County in the triple jump behind Clearview junior Gavin Seaver [44-3 ½], No. 3 in the intermediates behind Deptford junior Kareem Brown [55.32] and Ryan Sanchez [56.51] and 7 in the hurdles.

He’s the top South Jersey freshman in the 110 highs since Sincere Rhea of St. Augustine – now at Texas Tech – ran 14.99 at 2016 Parochial A states at Egg Harbor and the fastest in the intermediates since Cherry Hill East’s Alex Reber ran 54.38 at the 2010 Meet of Champions at South Plainfield. David Stewart, now a sophomore at Schalick, jumped 44-4 as a freshman last year at South Jersey Group 1 Sectionals at Pennsauken.

The Gloucester County Championships are scheduled for 4 p.m. today at Deptford.

Schalick senior Jordan Hadfield raced to the Salem County 1,600 record Wednesday and fastest time by a New Jersey Group 1 girl in 10 years at the Tri-County Showcase at Delsea.

Hadfield ran a big eight-second PR and solo’d 4:59.06, winning by about 130 meters with negative splits of 2:30.01 and 2:29.05, closing in 72.35.

She broke her own county record of 5:07.66 that she ran last June when she won the state Group 1 title in Somerset. Her time is 8th-fastest in the state this year and fastest by a South Jersey runner, just ahead of Ocean City’s Maeve Smith, who ran 4:59.17 at South Jersey Elite on the same track earlier this month.

Hadfield’s time is fastest this year in Group 1 and looks like the fastest ever run by a South Jersey Group 1 girl. The previous record was a hand-timed 4:59.6 by Glassboro’s Ruth Lockbaum at the 1985 Gloucester County Championships in Deptford. Haddonfield has had a few girls run faster but they were always in Group 2 in those years.

The last New Jersey Group 1 girl to run faster was Rachel Suss of Metuchen, who ran 4:57.05 to win the 2015 state Group 1 title at Egg Harbor.

Egg Harbor’s Ahmad Fogg, a sophomore at Stockton, moved into the NCAA Division 3 top-10 when he won the long jump Saturday at the New Jersey Athletic Conference Championships.

Fogg jumped a wind-legal 24-1 on his final attempt and won by two inches over Rowan’s Nana Agyemang, who was 2nd with a season-best 23-11.

That’s tied for 8th-best in NCAA Division 3 this year. The top 20 qualify for D-3 Nationals, scheduled for

Fogg’s 24-1 is best by a Stockton jumper with legal wind since before 2013, which is as far back as the TFRRS database goes. It’s probably best by a Stockton jumper since 2006, when Mainland’s Paul Klemic jumped 24-9 ¾ (with -0.2 wind) to win the D-3 title in Lisle, Ill.

Stockton’s Jared Lewis, the 2017 and 2018 Division 3 triple jump champ from Deptford, had a 24-4 at a meet in Glassboro in 2016 but it was wind aided at 2.9.

Fogg’s previous legal long jump was a 23-6 ¼ indoors in Rochester in January.

Fogg also placed 3rd in the triple jump with a lifetime-best 47-8 ½. His previous PR was a 47-1 ½ at Widener last month.

So far this spring, four South Jersey long jumpers have surpassed 24 feet: Princeton junior Greg Foster from Lumberton [25-8 ½], Monmouth senior Ahmad Brock – Fogg’s one-time teammate at Egg Harbor – [24-7 ½] Monmouth junior Aaron Brooks from Eastern [24-0] and Fogg [24-1]

Fogg spent last season at Penn State, where he long jumped 23-6 ¾ in an indoor meet in Ann Arbor, Mich.

David Stewart ran the 8th-fastest intermediate hurdles time in Salem County history Wednesday and the fastest time by a New Jersey sophomore.

That’s impressive. What makes it more impressive is that – at least according to MileSplit – it’s the first time he’s ever run a 400-meter hurdles race.

Stewart, the versatile Schalick sophomore, won the intermediates and triple jump at the Tri-County Showcase at Delsea, and his hurdles performance is remarkable because while he may have run the event in a dual meet, it’s apparently his first try in a big meet.

Stewart ran 54.60 in the intermediates, 11th-fastest in the state this year, 3rd-fastest in South Jersey, fastest by a New Jersey sophomore this year, fastest ever by a Salem County sophomore and fastest by any Salem County athlete in nine years, since Jason Stefanski of Penns Grove ran 54.15 to win the state Group 1 title at Egg Harbor in 2016.

It’s tricky to figure out where Stewart’s time ranks all-time among South Jersey sophomores without going through stacks of dusty old New Jersey Track annuals, but the only faster times in the last 10 years are Bryce Tucker’s 52.17 in 2021 and Jamir Brown’s 54.52 in 2022 (for Delran, not Riverside).

Stewart is one of the most versatile athletes you’ll ever see. He’s run 11.22 in the 100, 22.00 in the 200, 49.10 for 400 meters and 54.60 in the intermediates, long jumped 22-3 and triple jumped 45-7 and he’s halfway through his sophomore year.

Among Group 1 runners in New Jersey, he’s currently No. 1 in the 200, intermediates and triple jump, No. 2 in the long jump, No. 3 in the 400 and No. 14 in the 100.

And among New Jersey sophomores, he’s No. 1 in the 200, 400 and intermediates, No. 3 in the triple jump, No. 4 in the long jump and No. 19 in the 100.

Absegami senior Josephine Buxton popped the 6th-best javelin throw in Atlantic County history Tuesday at the Atlantic County Championships.

Buxton uncorked a 133-10 throw on her 1st attempt at Egg Harbor, surpassing her lifetime-best 129-1 from Nike Elite last week at Delsea. That was her first throw ever over 120 feet.

Buxton also had throws of 127-8 and 128-8 and averaged 127-4 on her five legal throws. Her winning throw is best at the Atlantic County meet since 2018, when Brielle Smith set the South Jersey record of 168-6 at Buena.

Buxton’s throw is No. 2 in Absegami history behind Ayana Culhane, who threw 143-11 to win the 2016 state Group 3 title in Columbus.

She’s now No. 2 in New Jersey this year, behind only Sparta senior Isabella Frattura, who threw 134-10 earlier this month in a meet in Hardyston Township, Sussex County.

What an inpressive meet for Absegami senior Jaidah Garrett Tuesday at the Atlantic County Championships.

Garrett won the 100 in 12.19, the 200 in 24.59, the long jump at 19-4 and the triple jump with a 37-5 ¾.

She’s now No. 4 in South Jersey in the 100, No. 5 in the 200, No. 2 in the long jump and No. 2 in the triple jump. On the 2025 state list, she’s No. 2 in the long jump, No. 6 in the 200, 11th in the triple and 13th in the 100.

She PR’d in the 100 and 200 and was close in both horizontal jumps. She’s now No. 5 in Atlantic County history in the 100 and 200 and No. 4 in the triple in addition holding the county record in the long jump.

Atlantic County Tech sophomore Brianna Growalt had quite a meet as well with PR 2nd-places in the 200 in 24.79, hurdles in 14.44 and long jump with an 18-9 ¼. She was 2nd to Garrett in the 200 and long jump and 2nd to Pleasantville freshman Isabella Alvarez’s PR 14.41 in the hurdles. Growalt is now No. 7 in Atlantic County history in the 200 and 5th in the long jump. She’s 6th in South Jersey in the 200, 3rd in the hurdles and 3rd in the long jump. She’s the top sophomore in New Jersey in the hurdles and long jump and 3rd in the 200.
