NN Boys 4x200 Places 3rd in EE Race at 2012 NBIN

Friday was Day 1 of the New Balance High School Indoor Nationals, and Newton North's 4x200 team (Ryan Lucken, Nate Menninger, Shawn Seamans, and Daniel Swain) finished 3rd in the Emerging Elite division with a season's best time of 1:31.36.

Running in the last of eight sections, the Tigers finished in 2nd, only a tenth of a second behind a team from Virginia. The fastest time of the day came from an earlier section, leaving the Tigers 3rd overall.

The NN Boys are also entered in the Sprint Medley relay Saturday and the 4x400 relay on Sunday.

Swardiq Mayanja finished 4th at Nationals with a throw of 59'6", equalling his best throw. 60' will have to wait for outdoors.

Thanks for the correction (re: Emerging Elite). I've edited the post to reflect that.

Congrats to Mayanja! 60' is only a matter of time.

I believe that 1:31.36 is a school record, can anyone confirm?

It appears to be so (indoors, of course)/
