I went to school with Kevin Sullivan.
before my time, a half miler named Tom Farrell eventually went on to win the US nationals, olympic trials and then the bronze medal at the 1068 mexico city olympics.
also a guy named Kawan Lovelace competed for Belize in the Olympics for the triple jump.
as a teammate i ran with a great guy named Dan McGrath who most recently is a two time champ at the Long Island Marathon.
Bryan McCants was an absolute beast in the 400IH in hs and college at northeastern but ended up walking away from competetive running soon after...
Stan Mavis
Erin Donohue. I think she only has one school record now (maybe 2 though).
German Fernandez
4:12 Miler who now runs for UNC.
Way after my time, but ... Liz Costello.
Josh McDougal never would have gone to Saranac in high school if he wasn't home schooled as he lived in Peru from the time he was about 10 to high school age. Peru is where Footlocker finalist Dan Lennon is from. Wishful thinking Matt.
I'm a slow JV runner at arcadia, and I was a freshman when Ammar was a senior. I just knew him as the guy who lapped me and my friends during workouts.
Tom Nohilly-1:54,4:11,9:14,9:24st,15:01. He went on to win steeple NCAA title for U of Florida. Tom finished 4th at Oly trials twice!(92,96)First time by four one hundreths of a second!(8:16.92). Second time by a little over a second! Ouch! It still hurts to think about it!
Dick Beardsley went to my high school.
Mark Conover - 1988 Olympic Marathon Trials winner and 9:06 HS 3200m runner who graduted from Miramonte in 1979.
However, he doesn't have any records here. Adam McAboy ran 4:12.13 and 8:55.10 in the 80s. On the girls side, we had a girl run 2:09 and 4:48 and a 4 by mile national record team in 1981. They ran 20:49.
