Santa Rosa All-City
May 10, 2003
Panthers capture both boys and girls team championships By DEWEY FORGET FOR THE PRESS DEMOCRAT Santa Rosa dominated the 20th Annual All-City Track Meet Saturday, winning the boys and girls team titles at Cardinal Newman. In the individual competition, Santa Rosa's Hollywood Radford and Elsie Allen's Whitney Leachman were voted the meet's outstanding athletes. And why not? Radford won the 200-meter, 400, and ran the anchor leg in the 4x100 relay and the 4x400. Santa Rosa ran the 4x100 in 43.2 to set a meet record. Leachman won the 100 in 12.3 and then bettered her own meet record of 25.7 in the 200, with a 25.4. Leachman also ran the anchor leg in the 4x100, which Elsie Allen won in 49.8, another meet record. Leachman said her goal is to improve her times, especially in the 100. "My goal is to run 11.9," said Leachman, who has been running since the seventh grade. "I have been staying right around 12.2. I need a better start. I have to get out of the box a lot quicker. But, if I do have a bad start, I can still finish pretty strong." In all there were six meet records broken, including the boys 4x800 by Montgomery, which was run last Friday in the rain at SRJC, just moments before the meet was postponed and rescheduled. The Pumas ran 8:24.5 to obliterate Santa Rosa's record of 8:34.4 set in 2001. And there is the Laurie Hollingsworth factor, Piner's outstanding middle- distance runner in the early '80s. Hollingsworth owned the meet record in the 800 and 1,600, and both were broken. In the 800, Kim Handel (Montgomery) posted a 2:17.0 to break Hollingsworth's record of 2:17.8, and Montgomery's Kim Conley covered the 1,600 in 5:01.7 to lower the record by a whopping 10 seconds. "I have been feeling good lately, chipping off a little in my times," said Conley, a junior, who has been running for eight years and admits to having a prerace custom since her freshman year. "I have my favorite pair of pajamas I wear the night before a race. I guess you can call it part of my mental preparation." Dawit Tesfasilassie of Piner was an upset winner in the boys 1,600, out-kicking Silas Stafford (Santa Rosa) and teammate Chris Gardina in 4.26.8. Tesfasilassie, a sophomore who migrated to Santa Rosa with his family five years ago when civil war broke out in Eritrea, which borders Ethiopia in East Africa, has been running for only two years. "We won a lottery that allowed us to come to America," Tesfasilassie said. "We settled in Santa Rosa because we had cousins here and they let us stay with them until my father found a job. We started a new life here." Other winners included: Santa Rosa's Deena Stapleton in the girls 100-hurdles; Kristin Jellison (Santa Rosa) in the 400; Juliana Helleskov (Santa Rosa), 300H; Caroline Templeton (Santa Rosa), long jump; Elsie Allen's Alisha Bassett (triple jump); Jen Bielenberg (Ursuline) in the pole vault; Jean Lightfoot (Carrillo), shot put, and Krista Durand (Ursuline) in the discus 120-3 (new meet record). Old mark was set in 1982 by Montgomery's Jennifer Johnson 117-7. Boys winners: Corey Coles (Carrillo),110H; Ryan House (Carrillo), 100; Cappy Sorentino (Santa Rosa), 300H; David Wellman (Carrillo), 800; JK Withers (Cardinal Newman), 3200; Ben Coulumbe (Carrillo), long jump; Marshall Olin (Santa Rosa),triple jump; Matt Tillinghast (Montgomery), pole vault; and Garin Reighly (Montgomery), won the shot put and the discus with a personal-best of 131-3.
