Mea Culpa. Sometimes keeping track of the stats is overwhelming. And sometimes the workload is, too.

States story: Lindsay Dolan is graceful over the hurdles for a reason... Kim Jaick Jun 1, 2006

Two-time Class 2A 100 meter high hurdle champion Lindsay Dolan said something unique when interviewed by a group of reporters after collecting her gold medal at Shippensburg last Saturday. \"My coach once told me I hurdle like a dancer,\" the Center High senior said. It turns that\'s because she used to be one. Beginning at age three and for about 12 years Dolan did ballet, jazz and tap dance. (Front page photo by Karen Ward)

States stories from Don Rich: A family that wins together... the original sweep... it was the shoes Don Rich May 31, 2006

During the two days of competition, and then throughout the beginning of this week, Don Rich talked with athletes and coaches about their experiences at States, and learned some very interesting things. Quaker Valley record-setting 4x100 was mostly a family affair. Simon Gratz was not the first to sweep three relays in a state meet... but it\'s been a long time. And Brad Miller did get something from twin brother Craig before his Friday race, and it wasn\'t advice.

Simon Gratz Don Rich May 29, 2006

When the Philadelphia Public League became PIAA District 12 in 2004, no one knew exactly what impact the teams would have at the state level, but Simon Gratz head coach Robert Massie had an idea they\'d do very well. His team had run US#1 ranked relays most of the indoor and outdoor campaigns. They rolled over national competition. And Massie says, there was little reason to expect anything different when they arrived at the 2005 PIAA T&F State Championships, their first.
