The boys Catholic High School 4x800 relay is a main highlight of the Millrose Games, and the 4th and fastest heat in the Trials last night was equally exciting and produced at minimum 4 of the 6 seeds advancing to the Games on Jan. 29th.  Unfortunately, too distracted to catch the winner, the top 3 seeds were St. Anthony's, Fordam Prep, and Chaminade's A team, with the winning team coming in at 8:00 flat. 

The girls Invitational Mile was equally exciting as Hayley McMahon of Arlington, just got under the 5min mark, 4:59.9, which was mandatory to get a spot on the line it the Millrose Games Girls Invitational Mile.  She used a surge with about 400m to go and held on to get requisite time.

Finally, Coach Zoe Swenson's Sacret Heart 4x400 team, placed second, just a couple of seconds back, in their division to advance to the Games as well.  Here's a video of anchor Dana Walsh's 62 sec. leg to move up from third to second place, insuring their place at Millrose.
