Jon becomes only the 3rd Prep Vaulter to clear 15', and Mohamed is first-ever Prep Hurdler to break 15 seconds! 

CHSAA VARSITY OUTDOOR INTERSECTIONAL CITY CHAMPIONSHIPS
SATURDAY MAY 20th @ Icahn Stadium, Randall’s Island

In 1996, Biju Mathaikutty and Jason Macias had a friendly rivalry that saw them trade off the school's 110m High Hurdle
record numerous times during their Junior and Senior years.  In the end, Biju set the record at 15.3 at the 1995 City Champs,
and Jason equalled it at the Eastern States a year later.  Fast forward ten years and Coach Febles, Sr. has an even more
compelling rivalry on his crew.  Mohamed Kanu broke the school record at the City Champs trials by running 15.47 (the
automatic or "FAT" time is intrinsically faster {by .24 secs} than the hand-timed 15.3s).  In the very next heat, but 2 minutes
later, Brian Andreycak ran 15.41 to make the record his own.  Both ran well in the trials but just shy of a new record, and then
they exploded in the finals.  14.98 for Mohamed wins the Cities, and 15.24 for Brian takes 4th.  Numbers 1 and 2 on the all-time
list........until next time!

Jon Bednarz is gaining a rep for coming through when it counts.  Chomping at the bit all winter to vault early and vault often, 
Coach Carney kept the reigns on and pointed towards the Indoor Cities.  There were some tough weeks of frustration for awhile,
but in the end Jon won when it counted.  In the spring, Jon displayed the patience of a veteran, never concerned with vaulting too
much, just being sure that workouts went well.  And so they did.  So much so that
Jon became only the 7th NYC high schooler
to clear 15', and 3rd at the Prep.   However, he is the first Junior to clear that barrier.  Look for more big days in the not-so-distant future.
