Congratulations to Deon, Micaela and Jack who won
JD Series cross country awards.
Kathryn van Ryswyk ran at the BC Cross country
championships, her first run of the year and she placed 7th.
September 29, 2007
We ran the South Fraser cross country races today and had nearly 300
competitors. Click the Results button above for all of the race
details. Many thanks to our volunteers who did a great job.
This meet is the 2nd in the Lower Mainland XC series of 5 races that
culminates in the Provincial Championships in late October.
Great effort for 8 South Fraser runners: Crislana,
Lisa, Jack, Deon, Nicole, Alannah, Abraja and Jasleen who
ran well today.
Congratulations to the 5 South Fraser athletes who will be awarded with BC
Athletics JD awards this year for T&F performance:
Emily Kerr, Konrad Piaseczny,
Kathryn van Ryswyk, Ben Ingvaldson
and Tayla Jackson all acheived
either the new Performance standard or a Top 10 mark.
Unfortunately Tesarla Johnson and Tosha Moore achieved the standard but did not
record a throw in 2007 rendering them ineligible. In addition Serena
Graf and Terrell Jana achieved standard but did not attend the
championship meet, which is also a criteria for the award.
If you consider the change of grouping for 15 year olds, where Del Ingvaldson and Florence Clifford will now be
considered for BC Athletics Youth awards and not the JD awards and 2007
must be considered one of the most successful ever for our club.
We had 8 athletes running yesterday at the Pinetree
cross-country meet, it was nice weather and they all performed well,
congratulations to Deon who won the 94 Boys category.
Cross country training is in progress, our routine in September is
to train on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm. South Fraser training is at Bear
Creek park in Surrey, new athletes age 9+ are welcome, just show up before
6pm, meet at the equipment shed and ask for Jim. For more information,
please email jimc@synnex.com

Jallisa and Florence
competed last week-end at the Canadian Junior Championships in Abbotsford,
they failed to qualify for the finals but Florence did manage a Hammer PB of 36.60m
(4Kg). These girls aged 16 and 15 still have a few more years to compete
against juniors (ages 18 and 19) and had a great experience against the top
girls in Canada.
We have 2 athletes still looking forward to competition at the 15 year old
National Championships in New Brunswick
August 7th, best of luck to Del and Florence.
South Fraser alumni athletes had some great results recently
at Nationals and at Worlds; Sabrina and Christabel
Nettey went to the World Youth Championships in
the Chech
Republic. Sabrina
came in 8th in Long Jump and just missed the 100M finals by less than
1/100th of a second. Christabel came in 8th in
Hurdles and just missed the Long Jump finals. At the National Junior
championships high jumper Karly Neveu cleared a seasonal best 1.71m to win; Christabel long jumped 6.07m to win and was 2nd in
hurdles. Sabrina was top 5 in both 100M and 200M dashes but had an off day
in Long Jump.

showed his form early in the season beating the top 15 year old sprinters,
but was injured in the Fraser Valley HS champs and could not return to top
form.
Terrell Jana made a hurdles top 10 mark and recorded the top sprint and
jumps for 9 year old boys.
Serena Graf had been the top thrower in her age class for the previous 3
years and was again throwing big top 10 marks this season with hopes for
another BC Record; she had the added element of serious competition from
her Ocean Athletics rival but never got a chance to compete in dry weather.
Other medal hopefuls who did not compete included Alannah
Vetterl, Kristen Findlay, Michael Muniak, Nicole Muniak, Jalen Jana, Keenan Jacklin, Brayden Jacklin and Micaela Flores-Aguilera.
