NEW YORK – She couldn’t help herself. She didn’t mean to.

Anyone who ever saw Easton’s Chanelle Price expected her to start the race like a rocket but not even Price expected to motor through the first half of her 800-meter race like this. When the gun sounded, Price demanded the lead. No surprise there. But Hempstead’s Charlene Lipsey looked intent to ride her shoulder. Once Price noticed Lipsey trying to keep pace, she put the burners on. FULL STORY HERE

North Babylon sophomore Vanessa Stewart won the shot put with a heave of 42-06. After putting the shot over 39 feet three times in the prelims with the glide technique, Stewart attempted to spin on her first throw in the finals and only managed a 33 foot effort. She then came back to the glide on her 2nd throw in the finals and unleashed the winning toss, saying "I was so angry," after that previous throw.
