NNHS Alumni Results - Jan 17/18, 2009

Yale competed against Dartmouth and Columbia on Sunday, and David Smith (NNHS '07, Yale ) had a big day in the throws. Smith tossed the weight 13.79 meters, and threw the shot 15.13 (49-7.5) for second place. I believe those are both collegiate personal bests.

By the way, Brookline's Matt Stewart ran 2:29.39 for 1000m at the Yale meet, which is, I believe the first time he has been under 2:30.00 for that distance.

Another former NNHS shot putter was in action on Sunday, as Steve Long (NNHS '08, Bentley '12) threw the shot 12.13 at the Greater Boston Meet at Harvard's Gordon Track. Also at the GBTC meet, John Blouin ran 9:16.39 for 3K.

On Saturday, Doug Brecher (Bates '10) competed in a tri-meet among Bates, Colby, and MIT in Lewiston, ME. Doug ran 9:09.42 for 3K and 4:35.49 for 1 mile. Solid times for a flat track.

Wesleyan University was in in action on Saturday, and Scott Cole ran 2:45.78 for 1000m to place 7th in that race.

Dan Chebot (Rochester '09) competed at the RIT Invitational, doing a speed double. Dan ran 2:48.42 for the 1000 (everyone doing the 1000 all of a sudden), and 4:41.90 for the mile.

On Thursday night, David Polgar (BU '10) competed in a meet against Sacred Heart at BU, running 4:28.46 for the mile.
