I was happy to see two familiar names in the results from the State of Maine Championships, hosted by Bates College on Saturday, Feb. 3rd. Two former Newton North teammates, now rivals, finished 4th and 5th in the 5000m. Doug Brecher (Bates Class of '10) ran 15:59.97 to finish 4th, and Pat Pierce (Bowdoin, Class of '08) finished right behind in 5th at 16:03.74. It is especially encouraging to see this result from Pat, who has battled an achilles injury since the Fall of 2005. I believe this is his first serious race in over a year, and it is a very good result.
Noah Jampol, (Johns Hopkins Class of '10) placed 6th in the 1000m in 2:37.67 at the Frank Colden Invitational, held at Ursinus College Saturday.
Steph O'Brien (Wesleyan Class of '08) finished 3rd in the 600m in 1:40.42 at the Smith Tartan Invitational held at Smith College in Northampton.
