1/24-West Catholic wins 2, Bonner boys, Hatboro girls 1/ea-Hallinan 4:12.72 @ NY\'s New Balance Game Don Rich Jan 26, 2004

West Catholic\'s 4:06.70 SMR is a new US #2, while their 3:51.54 4x400, behind a 53.5 anchor by Nicole Leach, is a new US#3. Leach was the lead-off on the SMR, followed by Erica Ferguson, Ciarra Lawson and anchor Latavia Thomas. Bonner won the 4x800 in 8:04.77 (Dave McGuire 2:00.1/Rich Touey 2:03.8/Luke Henderson 2:00.9/Mark Simpson 1:59.7), a new US#4 (in photo by Dan Nelson), while the Hatboro-Horsham girls took their race in 9:17.46, new US#2. And O\'Hara\'s Steve Hallinan, who took a brief lead at 3/4\'s in 3:10.8, solidified his place in the Millrose Mile field with his 5th place 4:12.72. West Chester Henderson made the finals of the 4x200, but a runner fell on a slippery spot, knocking them out of contention. They went 1:30.73 in the Trial, a new US#7, then 1:33.26 in the Finals. O\'Hara went 1:33.18, all @ the New Balance Games @ the NY Armory.

1/22-Hallinan + Morelli try to firm up Millrose Sat @ New Balance Games - Spooner misses the cut Don Rich Jan 22, 2004

Cardinal O\'Hara\'s Steve Hallinan may be in the Millrose Mile field after his Hispanic Games 4:16.60, but just to make sure, he\'ll compete this Saturday at the New Balance Games in New York. Lewisburg\'s Chris Spooner was on the short list to make the same race in his effort to qualify for Millrose, but didn\'t make the cut. He has run a pair of 4:14\'s on his own this month, and owns a 4:14.13 and a 4:13.20 (AOC) from outdoor last season. Also competing this weekend in the Invitational Mile will be St. Basil\'s Lynn Morelli. Best of luck Steve and Lynn! St. Hubert\'s Amy Kelly (4:52.68) and Allentown Central Catholic\'s Frances Koons (4:55.13) have already accepted invitations to Millrose based on their Hispanic Games performances two weeks ago.
