I can’t believe the year is almost over; my first year of college and two seasons of NCAA division 1 track and field are soon to end. I’ve felt this feeling recently more than ever seeing as I’ve been traveling to Pennsylvania for two consecutive weeks now. I’ll more than likely be there again this coming weekend, and hope to earn a trip to the Penn Relays (kind of a big deal), the week after. That’s a lot of Pennsylvania in one month!
As you can tell, track consumes essentially all of my life. This season has been pretty rough, both physically and mentally. Despite always hearing upperclassmen and coaches say that most freshmen should consider it a great season to equal their high school performances, it’s frustrating to be as far off as I am now. Granted these two seasons (plus fall training) have totaled more than three full high school seasons. Hopefully next year will go as coach says it should.
Hopefully this weekend I can drop some significant time off the performances I just posted at Ithaca College…
I hope everyone else’s year has gone well, and I look forward to seeing everyone as school draws to a close and summer begins. Although I have yet to secure any plans this summer, has anyone else?
Hi all. I’m back yet again.
I got inspired to update this place again after fixing everything up. Most of the stuff on this site now works (like the photos finally) and I’ve added some new things as well. I have a new Twitter account that’s displayed on the right side of this page (reminiscent of Facebook status updates). I’ve also updated the contact page with SMS functionality if you really want to reach me (I don’t know what for) that badly.
All that aside, so much has gone on since I last posted here in June. It seems almost fruitless to even mention all that has gone on since then so I’m not even going to try. 
Currently, we’re just coming off a huge Heps victory. It feels absolutely incredible to be a part of something like Heps (Ivy Leage track and field championship) and I’m hoping to make the Heps squad come outdoor season. Even as a non-competitor this time around, the atmosphere and the excitement were just amazing. Continue reading ‘Third Time’s the Charm’
This is for sure one of the best blocks in NBA history. 5’9″ point guard 
Nate Robinson of the New York Knicks blocks 7’6″ 
Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets. This is the same 5’9″ Nate Robinson who won the 2006 Slam Dunk Contest.
Moral of the story: There’s hope for shorties everywhere.
After a hiatus from updates, I finally return. Did you miss me? Well, quite a lot has been going on since my last post, the most important being, school’s over. But we’ll get to that later. So begins my series of anecdotes describing quite possibly the most annoying/difficult week of my life; the week from Hell.

After losing by 4 points last year, the track squad regained the regional title with a convincing victory (beating the second place team, Lutheran North, by 36.07 points) and placing in every event except the 1600M. Clayton Beard broke the 30 year old high jump record with a jump of 6’5.5″. I qualified for states in all my events:
- 100M Dash 4th place 11.09 (state qualifying)
- 400M Dash 2nd place 51.56 (All-Region and state qualifying)
- 4×400 Relay 1st place 4:28.78 (Regional Champions and state qualifying)
Overall, we dominated the meet from beginning to end. Hopefully we’ll be able to do the same at Oakland Counties and States. Congratulations to all who participated yesterday.
