Corey Poole Wins THREE Gold Medals Jun 11, 2017

Interview and Write-up by Jim LambertFull ResultsCory Poole got the triple he just missed last year when the East Orange star turned in one of the greatest performance in meet history at Saturday's 49th NJSIAA Meet of Champions at Northern Burlington High School in Columbus. Poole, headed to the University of Florida, won the 400 hurdles for the second straight year in a meet record 50.72, captured his second straight 110 hurdle title in 14.04, and split 46.5 on the winning 4x400 that ran a NJ #1 3:12.89, No. 6 in meet history.Poole is just the fourth boy in state history to win three gold medals at the outdoor M of C. Reuben McCoy of Winslow (2004), and Jermaine Collier of Trenton (2012) and Fabian Santiago of Oakcrest (2012) are the only other three to pull off the M of C hat trick. Poole is also just the second boy in meet history to win both the HH and IH in back-to-back years. Craig Morris of Monmouth did it in 1989 and 1990. "After just missing this triple last year when we were second in the 4x400, it really feels good to get it this time and put my name up there with some of the best guys ever from New Jersey ,'' said Poole. "It guess it puts me right up there with them.''

Elliot Gindi Kicks to 1600m Title 4:09.14 Jun 11, 2017

Interview and Write-up by Jim LambertFull Results Elliot Gindi of Ocean Township knew what was coming, so he did what he does best. He patiently waited for the right time to pull the trigger on his lethal kick. With about 75 meters to go in Saturday's boys 1,600-meter run at the 49th Meet of Champions at Northern Burlington, it was time as Gindi cranked it up and passed a very game Drew Maher of Shore Regional and hammered his way across the finish line first, stopping the clock with a PR and NJ #1 4:09.14, the 8th fastest time in meet history. Maher, a junior, finished second in 4:09.92, a personal best by nearly seven seconds.   The victory was especially sweet for Gindi after he finished second to CBA's Drake Anzano last year. Gindi wasn't going to let the same thing happen again as he ran a strategically perfect race to get the win.Chris Romero of Voorhees took it out fast as expected, hitting the 400 in 59.4 and the 800 in 2:03.6. Gindi sat back in fifth at 800, and moved to third at the bell. Maher then took the lead with 225 to go and Gindi stayed right on his heels before he summoned his killer kick to put the race away as he finished off a 59.1 final 400.   BOYS 1,600 METER RUN FINALSPLACEATHLETETEAMRESULTWINDH#1Elliot Gindi12Ocean Twp.
