Brookline 6th at Penn Relays DMR

Brookline (Matthew Stewart, Michael Bennett, Anthony Baker, Robert Gibson) finished 6th in the Boys Distance Medley Championship of America on Friday night with a time of 10:16.88. According to a Mike Burnstein (via DyeStat), splits were:

1200: Matt Stewart 3:06.8 (2nd place!!)
400: Michael Bennett 52.2
800: Toby Blattier 2:01.5
1600: Robert Gibson 4:16.4

In 7th place was Xaverian (Dan Higgins, Taylor Fitzgerald, Andrew MacIsaac, Mark Amirault) with a time of 10:23.72.

Note: The race was originally scheduled for 5:35, but there were rain and lightning delays earlier in the day, and events were going off two hours later than scheduled. I'm guessing that Brookline probably didn't get on the road for the 5+ hour drive back until late Friday evening. That will make it tough to have much energy for the State Relays today!

Added: Newton North's David Smith finished 17th in the shot put Friday with a toss of 51-9,
