Records Fall on Day 2 at CWOSSA Championships

Some notable records, including some more than 30 years old, fell on the second day of the CWOSSA Track and Field Championships over at Resurrection CSS in Kitchener.

They included:

Nik Hoediono, SJAM (Junior Boys Pole Vault) -  4.12m.  Previous Record:  Dave Woodley, Eastwood CI - 4.09 in 1978.

Brooke Rowland, from Westside SS in Orangeville, took out a record in the junior girls' javelin that had stood since 1976. Her 43.33m toss eclipsed Debbie Smallwood (Eastwood)'s effort of 42.20m.

Meanwhile, Marielle Harper (KCI) took care of her own record in the open girls pole vault --- besting her 2009 3.00m effort by another 7cm (3.07).

Some Midget Records, which were recently reset, were also broken:

Tegan Sauer, Forest Heights (Midget Girls 100m) - 12.69. Previous Record: Hannah Pearsall, Lourdes - 13.03.

Breyden Miller, North Park CVS (Midget Boys 100m) - 11.55. Previous Record: Morgan Walls, North Park - 11.89. Miller also set a new mark in the midget 200m with a clocking of 23.92 (defeating Keegan Calder's 24.17 last year).

Bailey Sprout, Resurrection (Midget Girls 200m) - 26.42. Previous Record: Hannah Pearsall, Lourdes - 27.89.

Jaimie Phelan, St. Mary's (Midget Girls 800m) - 2:17.79. Previous Record: Aliya Roga, St. David - 2:27.63.

There were also a couple of impressive near-misses:

Braden Cok of SJAM nearly hit the 13-metre mark in the midget boys triple jump (12.99). This narrowly missed Rob Duffey (PJCVI)'s 1994 record of 13.08.

Meanwhile, Andrew Beckford (KCI)'s 17-year record of 42.00 in the 300m hurdles was nearly taken out by Cameron Heights' Jordan Sherwood, who clocked in at 42.35.
