GOOD TIMES AT KIRKVINE

THOMAS TOPS FIELD AGAIN

MCTF fielded 57 athletes at Kirkvine on January 15th. Unfortunately the meet was rained out before the 400m and distance medley relays were staged. As such many of our athletes will shift their schedule down a week to Central Hurdles and relays on the 22nd. Nevertheless,Kirkvine remains one of the best spectator meets of the season.

Not unlike 2010 the team had well balanced performances all around at Kirkvine. Hard-working Herbert "Kesno" Thomas (left) rose to the top once again clocking the fastest time in the Class 2 800m with 2:05.13. Both Thomas and Jason Lewis (6th; 2:06.54) should put together a strong tandem in the Class 2 mids this season. Other notable 800m performances came from first former Rajiv Lewis (CL 3 - 8th; 2:22.22) and Geovanie Foote (CL 1 - 5th; 2:02.85). In the 200m Munro saw top ten finishes from Rojay Ottey (CL3 - 6th; 23.36), Javauri Mitchell (CL3 - 9th; 23.58), Rushane Edwards (CL3 - 10th; 23.68) and Waynee Hyman (Cl1 - 8th; 21.44). It should be noted that both lewis in the 800m and Edwards in the 200m are actually Class 4 athletes. Complete results can be found in the 2011 Meet Results section of the blog (MC results are highlighted).

The team moves onto Central Hurdles and Relays on January 22nd where we will continue the development process and seek qualifying marks in sprint and intermediate hurdles, long jump, 400m, 1500m, 4x100m and 4x400m.
