state my senior year!
future drillers - anderson and van horne!Originally uploaded by andynoise
For distance fans, the boys’ 3200-meter-run proved to be a classic. Four athletes arrived there with personal bests below 9 minutes, a 4:30 pace per four laps. But not on this day.
“I actually thought it went out pretty slow,” said Dave Shea, one of the top distance entrants that day and a member of the track team at Castro Valley High. “We came across the (1600) at 4:30 and everyone was still there - 30 guys, one huge pack! After the mile, (Edison’s Jon) Butler and (Mission San Jose’s Jay) Marden took off. It turned out to be a really fast second mile.”
Marden led the group through splits of 64.5, 2:13.5, 3:21.7 and 4:29.9 (64.5-69.0-68.2-68.2), with Bella Vista’s Harold Kuphaldt then seizing the lead and splitting the next two laps in 5:38.6 and 6:46.8 (68.7-68.2). From there, Butler made his move and bolted into the lead by employing the “long kick” approach on a 63.1 seventh lap before closing with a 56.9 last lap and a lifetime best and state-leading 8:46.78 for the victory, not to mention a stunning 4:29.9-4:16.9 negative split performance!
