William Penn's Juanita Broaddus and Christina Smith must have been ready for XC to end, because their first effort at the oval was stellar. Picking up where they left off, Broaddus and Smith started their senior campaigns in better-than-early season form, each taking two events. Smith took the 55 hurdles in a fast 8.4 (8.3 in the trials), and the 400 on cruise in 59.4. Broaddus captured both the 55 (7.1) and the 200 (25.8). A few others were also off to very strong starts, especially Janine Ricci of Hatboro-Horsham, who decided to get right onto the track and post a powerful 10:34.7 in the 3000, winning by almost 50 seconds. Simon Gratz junior Angela Wells went 18-01.75 to win the Long Jump. The Cardinal O'Hara and North Penn 4x800's pushed each other to nice early season times, with the PCL squad picking up the win by 4.7 seconds, going 9:50.8.West Catholic took the 4x400 in 4:04.7. Also noteworthy were the performances of Nicole Leach, West Catholic, who went 1:23.2 for 600 yards, and Pilar Batts, Archbishop Prendergast, who ran 38.0 for 300 yards.
