2/11 WKND: Laughlin, Shump US#1+3-Price, Springer US#2s @ Carnival|McNally 1:55.9 w/PIX Don Rich Feb 9, 2006

Weekend Highlights:On Monday 2/6, Upper Darby\'s Rob McNally posted a PA-leading 1:55.9 at the Armory in NY. On Wednesday, Penn Trafford\'s Diana Filtz runs a PA#3 10:20.9 3000. The top three Hempfield throwers had great nights. Despite the threat of snow on Saturday, nearly 80 schools of the registered 115 descended on Lehigh for the first of a series of what are annually PA\'s best indoor meets. Fans were not disappointed, as two throwers known as Laughlin and Shump, one from the west and one from the east, grabbed the 1st and 3rd spots on the national charts, while two others took over the #2 spots in their events. And there was more. Much more...like the meet record in the 60 Hurdles and LJ win in an action-packed \'gotta compete and leave\' hour by Methacton\'s Ryann Krais... or the two come-from-behind relay wins by Easton\'s Chanelle Price (in PennTrackXC.com photo) to go with her US#2 in the 800... Plus double wins by Whitney Matthews of Mercersburg Academy at the MAPL Champs... PTFCA CARNIVAL SELECT PIX, RACE SUMMARY AND PHOTO GALLERY NOW POSTED.
