__/ HANSONS DISTANCE NIGHT AT HILLSDALE,
THURSDAY (6/6/02)
This Thursday Hansons Running Shop and Hillsdale
College will be putting
on a
Distance Night beginning at 8pm. 4 events
(800-1500-steeple-5k) men and
women. Last year was a huge success as the women's
800 went sub 2:05 and
the 1500 went sub 4:17. The men's 1500 featured Paul
McMullen and the
5000 had 6 athletes go sub 14:00. This is probably the best
assembly of
top distance runners in the United States that we are able to
witness in
our own state. The event also features a high-school mile.
Girls who are
sub 5:40 and boys who are sub 4:40 will receive free entry to
this event.
For order of events and more information see

__/ MICHIGAN OWNS THE 10,000 IN NCAA DIVISION I
2001's 10,000 meter champion Ryan Shay (Notre
Dame/Central Lake) set out
to defend his title in the hot, humid weather of Baton Rouge
at the NCAA
Division I meet, hosted by Louisiana State University last
weekend. Shay's
29:02 was good for second place this year, behind Eastern
Michigan's Boaz
Cheboiyo's 28:32. Cheboiyo added the 10,000 track title to
the cross
country title he won in the Fall season. Jason Hartmann
(University of
Oregon/Rockford) was fourth in 29:28. Mike Wisnewski
(University of
Michigan/Temperance) won 10th place and All-American
honors with 29:47.
Also winning All American honors are Nate Brannen,
University of Michigan,
5th, 800 meters, 1:46 (PR), Dathan Ritzenhein

__/ MICHIGAN HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
STATE FINALS
Scott Sullivan's informal notes on MHSAA LP finals: The big
D-2 stories
were Tim Ross sweeping 1600 & 3200 (despite
having
popped hip out of
alignment while moving bathtub 4 days earlier) &
U-M-bound Cadillac senior
Katie Erdman sweeping 800 & 1600 by a ton (faster
times
than D1 winners
Ashley Patten & Nikki Bohnsack). Most impressive. Tim
Moore won the D-1 1600 & 3200 as expected. Biggest
D-1
sensation was Ken
Ferguson of state-champion Detroit Mumford, who
annihilated both state
hurdles records & anchored Mumford's 800 &
1600 relays to
winning,
state-record times.
