Massachusetts (MIAA) Eastern Division 2 Outdoor Championships 2014

The win was clinched in the meet’s final event, the 4 x 400 relay, in which his Rocketeers earned 1 point to edge Central Catholic, 69-68. But when Herber entered the results into his record book Monday morning, the scores added to a total that fell short of 69. He knew something was off. “For our individual scoring, I try to keep up with it and try to keep the kids [aware of] where they are individually for scoring,” Herber said. “We were looking at it, and I did all the math, and I said, ‘Aww.’ ”

With a name like Isabella and its ring of royalty, it was only appropriate that Notre Dame's Isabella DiMare was queen of the track at Sunday's Div. 2 EMass Track Championships. Running in near-perfect conditions on the Greater New Bedford Vocational oval, DiMare burned the 200-meter field in a personal best of 24.64 seconds and did the same in the 100 hurdles with a time of 14.96 to defend her title in both events. She finished up her day joining teammates Amanda Reilly, Gabby Sillari and Gabriela Kenyon to take the 4x100 in a meet-record time of 48.76. "I felt like I could have gone faster in the 200," said the junior phenom. "I felt smooth in the hurdles until I hit that last one. I can't wait for all-states. I owe all of this to (Notre Dame coach) Bill Jennings. He's such a great coach." 

The Miaa Divisioal meets have come to an end, here is a recap of all of todays action.

The biggest weekend of Track and Field has arrived and Milesplitmass has all the action. We have put together a Meet Central Pages for both Eastern and West/Central Divisions. Coaches and parents can one stop shop for all the important information they need.

It was a fantastic day of MIAA Track and field action as four divisions took place today. 

You won’t find these records in your meet program!  Greetings everyone. Listed below is a look at the updated event-records for the Mass. Divisional Meets [formerly the Class Meets] scheduled for May 31 and June 1, 2014. The divisional records, in particular, are a work in progress. The sprints [100, 200] short hurdles and javelin require more research and updating. While hand-times [ht] in the sprints and hurdles are ok to list, it is necessary to unearth the correct FAT [Fully Automatic Times] to present a clear picture of the records. A hand-timed mark should never be converted for purposes of a record. Therefore, a bit more research is needed in this regard. In the boy’s javelin, the D1 and D4 records are with the old javelin. Still looking for the “new” javelin records. Likewise, the girl’s javelin records, D1 and D2, are with the old javelin. These records need to be updated to reflect the “new” javelin. In some cases in the sprints and hurdles it appears hand times may have been rounded out to FAT times. That’s a no, no! Once research is complete, up-to-date accurate records will be posted on MileSplit. National Records and additional research from Jack Shepard, Track & Field News. American Junior Records are those ratified by USATF. Junior Records are restricted to athletes who do not turn 20 at any time during the calendar year in which the mark is made. Eastern Records are those compiled by Eastern Track’s Walt Murphy [wmurphy25@aol.com] and include the states from Maine to Virginia. New England and Mass. records are those compiled by Larry Byrne [ltbyrne1016@verizon.net] and Larry Newman [netrack@aol.com]. p= record pending verification; *** = Freshman, ** = Sophomore, * = Junior. All others are Seniors.

The MIAA Divisional championships are this weekend, an the division 2 Performance list are up and running. This weekend Division 2 Championship is at Greater New Bedford Voke Tech.

The inaugural MIAA State Pentathlon entries are out, and we are closing fast on all other entries as the deadline is noontime of Tuesday. The Pentathlon is a scoring event and it looks as if it might play a key role in some of the divisions.
