The team ended up finishing 5th and the relays coach Raymond Graham called the head coach a "dictator and a bully" and siad, "We lost the race before the race even started. The head coach went behind my back as the relays coach and meddled with the team."
Chaminade HS got a US#1 in the boys 4x800, running 7:39.44, but lost to Jamaica's Calabar who ran 7:37.36 for the win.
Brown broke the meet discus record with 210 feet, 9 inches. Stowers became the first person in meet history to win the 100H 3-times. The LSU men's 4x100 came in second as Jamaica's UTech won in 38.71.
"Anything under 4:35 is awesome for me. The mile is a little long for me."
The US won the men's DMR, men's 4x100, women's SMR and women's 4x400. The women's 4x100 lost to Jamaica and in the men's 4x400 a botched hand-off for the US on the last leg gave the Bahamas the win.
After this one was over, we wondered, 'Can the Ducks break the mythical 16:00 barrier?'
The US gave the Bahamas the win when the anchor leg Manteo Mitchel accidentally grabbed the Bahamas baton instead of his own. There is actually a picture with three hands on one baton (Mitchel's and the two Bahamas runners).
