I was talking with a local coach at Randall’s Island this evening and the following question came up. Which High School would produce the fastest Alumni Two Mile/3200 relay team by 880/800 personal records? The History of the CHSAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships lists Archbishop Molloy (Queens, NYC) as having Tom Farrell (1:45.46, ‘68) Peter Farrell (1:47.9y, ‘67) R Zieminski (1:47.7, ‘68) and Phil Hemery (1:48.1, ‘93).
Crenshaw High School (Los Angeles) has a good start with Johnny Gray (1:42.60, ‘85) and Jeff West (1:47.0, ’80, listed on the UCLA site, not sure if he ran faster after college). Does anyone have personal record info on other Crenshaw 800 runners?
