'00 AA State Meet
11/11/00
Great Meadows 5K course
Warrenton, VA
Saturday, November 11 -- The Jamestown boys fell just short in pulling off the upset in their quest for state championship by losing to the #18 nationally ranked and #1 team in the state of VA (A,AA,AAA), Western Albermarle by 2 points (91-93). Surprisingly, the Jamestown boys performed well with a not so stellar performance from their #1 runner and star, junior Bryce Ruiz. Ruiz who for the past week had been bothered by a calf injury and hadn't run that much so therefore was not at top shape, went after 2 time defending champion Bobby Lockhart for the first mile then held onto 3rd place at the 2 mile mark, but then hit the wall at 2.5 mile mark and let 10 people him in that span leading to a 13th place finish with a time of 16:38. Jamestown junior Tony Davila just missed out on cracking the top 15 All-State by placing 17th in a time of 16:53. Western Albermarle was able to place their top 2 runners (Charlie Hurt, 8th, 16:18 and Phillip Dejong, 9th, 16:20) ahead of Jamestown's #1, but Jamestown was able to beat Western Albermarle with runners #3 through #5. Jamestown sophomore Brandon Miles placed 3rd for the team and 28th overall in the race with a time of 17:07, beating Western Albermarle's #3 (Owen Morrison, 32nd, 17:11). One place and 2 seconds behind Miles was Jamestown's #4, senior Jeff Magner who ran 17:09 for 29th place in which he also beat Western's #3. Jamestown's 5th man was junior Phillip Cooke who placed 35th in a time of 17:17, beating Western Albermarle's #5 by 2 seconds (Peter Burch, 37th, 17:19). The Jamestown girls improved on their performance last year at the state meet by placing 10th with a score of 256) and by beating rival Lafayette (11th, 272) who had previously beat the Lady Eagles at the district and regional meets the previous weeks. Chrissie Rich closed out her senior year in style by placing 11th in a time of 19:50 and being All-State.
