PREVIEW
The annual Meet of Champions has arrived, as teams and athletes search for that final boost of momentum before next week’s state championships or are simply trying to punch a ticket to the big meet! One of the marquee matchups of the night will be in the 60 meter hurdles, where everyone will see 55 meter hurdle state leader Ciara Leonard square off against former PA#1 for 60 meter hurdles, Markeeta Thomas of Paul Robeson. In the dash, Katelyn Jackson of Cheltenham will look to continue her dominance in the event, but she will be challenged by Taylor Chapman of Pennridge and Jameela Muhammad of Paul Robeson. Chapman, Muhammad, Thomas will all join Dasia Pressley of Neshaminy and Chanel Brissett of Cheltenham in the 200 meter dash. The 400 meter dash will feature Carnival winner and joint state leader Brooklynn Broadwater of Springside Chestnut Hill facing Nicole Burke of Cheltenham. In the 800 meter run, 1000 meter state leader Maddie Villalba of Central Bucks West and Springside Chestnut Hill’s Terri Turner will go head to head. Kaelyn Heinicke of Council Rock North will also be in the mix, having won three DVGTCA 800 meter events this season. Olivia Sargent of Pennsbury and Kaitlin Poiesz of Central Bucks South will meet in the mile, while Sargent’s teammate Hannah Molloy and Elizabeth Morris of Central Bucks East will go head to head in the 3000 meter run. In the field events, Liz Reid of Lansdale Catholic will look to build off of her lifetime best long jump performance at the PCL Championships over the weekend (17-8.5) and face the likes of state leader Holly Sullivan of Owen J Roberts and Ariana Przybylowski of Pennridge. Triple jump title contenders Alexandra Heuer of Boyertown and Uchechi Onuoha of Pennsbury will get another look at one another before states next week. In the high jump, Claudine Andre of Upper Darby will look to avenge last week’s defeat to Carnival record holder Megan McCloskey of Germantown Academy. Anecia Alexaki of Upper Merion will look to hold off Dara Liss of Cheltenham for the pole vault crown. In the shot put, Macey Tanseco of Perkiomen Valley and Justine Morgan of Upper Dublin will meet once again for the top spot. In the relays, Cardinal O’Hara, Great Valley, North Penn and Strath Haven will feature in both the 4x800 and distance medley relays. They will be joined in the 4x8 by Central Bucks West, while Central Bucks South will join the party in the DMR. In the sprint relays, Paul Robeson and Overbrook renew their rivalry in the 4x200 meter relay, but Upper Darby will have something to say about who wins. Robeson will also contest the 4x400 meter relay against Springside Chestnut Hill, Strath Haven and Neumann Goretti!

Another brilliant double by Brianna Schwartz and US-ranking performances from Isaiah Brooks and Matthew Bernadowski highlighted the Tri-State Coaches indoor championships.
Already in the US top 5 in both the 800- and 1,600-meter/mile runs, Shaler Area’s Schwartz went wire to wire twice, covering the mile in 4 minutes, 48.15 seconds and then the 800 in 2:11.57.
In a meeting of two of the top three hurdlers in the state, Bernadowski of Elizabeth Forward remained on top in Pennsylvania and racked up a top 10 US clocking in the process. His new 60-meter best of 7.98 seconds is US#5, while Mitch Valko of South Fayette climbed to PA#2 in the prelims at 8.04 and then claimed the runner-up spot in the final in 8.05. Brooks, a junior at Woodland Hills, registered a PR and more in winning the long jump. His leap of 23 feet, 9.25 inches rocketed to PA#1 and US#5 and topped his outdoor best of 23-8 from last spring. Daniel Commey of McDowell claimed second with a final-round 22-5.25 that is worth PA#8.
