Boys Preview by Steve Mazzone: There’s potential for a great showdown in the triple jump with the nation’s top three competing this weekend. Prince George (VA) senior John Warren is the No. 1 seed with his 51-3 effort at the VHSL Group 5A Conference 12 Indoor T & F Championships on Feb. 7. Cahokia (IL) sophomore LeMari Ward (50-2.5) and El Paso Burges (TX) senior Keandre Bates (49-3.75) are the next two seeds.
Girls Preview by Phil Grove: Keturah Orji of New Jersey also leads the field in the triple jump. Her 44-0 is the nation’s best by almost 4 feet. Also entered are Canada’s Angela Mercurio, who was second last year, and Javonne Antoine of Maryland and Anisa Toppin of New York. Antoine was fourth in 2013 at the Armory and is currently US#4, while Toppin claimed sixth a year ago. Also scheduled to compete are New Yorker jumpers McKyla Brooks (US#2 40-2.5) and Kaylyn Gordon (US#5 39-6.5) and Texas standout Asa Garcia (T-US#6 39-3).
