Three seniors, one junior and one sophomore had outstanding county and state qualifier track championship meets. One senior was not a surprise - Kadeem Howell won long jump (22'7") and triple jump (47'2") for county championships and advanced to New York State meet in Buffalo on June 12 - 14. Chris Jordonne, 12th grade, made all-county (second place) with his personal best shot-put throw of 51' 1/4" - best in Manhasset in over 40 years. Senior Vincent Rizzo threw discus 136'5" for all-county honors (second place) and missed qualifying for state meet by only 2 inches. David Knowles, 11th grade, was all-county in 3000 meter steeplechase with a time of 10 minutes 29 seconds (second place) and sixth best time ever at Manhasset. Stu Hicks, tenth grade, was a big surprise this spring, high jumping 5'10" but his best event and all-county honors came in long-jump, 21'6 1/2", where he was third overall in Nassau County. The team finished regular season (13-1) and Kadeem Howell - state meet, was June 12 to 14; Nationals in North Carolina, June 20 and 21 and Empire States Games, June 26 is still competing.
