Girls 2000 Meter Steeplechase (mixed classes)

Early ... Jamie Sweeney (Saratoga) leads (she led most of the race) ... Kerry Banazek (West Genesee) is on the left -side of the photo and Erin Demchko (Pearl River) is on the right-side (#111)

Sensational finish of the steeplechase (new State record) ... Jamie Sweeney (Saratoga, right) barely holds off Heather Iatauro (Tri-Valley) ... there was no FAT timing/camera, and some difference of opinion as to the winner (finish-line was on the backstretch) ... Erin Demchko (Pearl River) finished third
