New York Relays Results

Junior Bobby Colantonio (Barrington, RI) threw a new national lead and meet record to highlight the first day of action on Friday at the New York Relays. Already in round two Colantonio set a new personal best and national lead of 238’07” and finished off the competition with another two throws over 230 feet. His throw also moves him within inches of the national all-time top 10 list. Close behind Colantonio was his teammate Adam Kelly (Barrington, RI). Kelly, the national leader entering the meet, was also near his personal best and turned in his second best performance ever at 234’2″. Owen Russell (Moses Brown, Providence, RI) finished in third.

Lysah Russell (Classical, Providence, RI) improved her best to win the girl’s competition in a great competition that featured season’s bests by all podium finishers, including Monae Cooper (New Rochelle, NY) in second place and Tara Rochefort (Woonsocket, RI) in third.
