Annual Indoor Intrasquad
Wed. Feb 13, 2008
Lombardi Center
This year's version featured the traditional rabbited sub-5 derby, which always produces some happy milers; a hybrid 2 mile/mile/800m run, a "trash-talking 55 Meter Challenge" and a 9x200 meter relay. 
Steve Pisciotta '10 edged under 5 minutes in his final indoor race of the year Tom McShane '10 in fine spirits after knocking out his first sub-5 mile....and his lunch

Sub 5 Challenge
Coach Johnson led the boys through in 75 and 2:31, then Tom McShane and Steve Pisciotta went to town.

Giant 9x200m Relay:
Always fun, always close.  This year's race saw all three teams finish spectacularly within 2 seconds of each other, then all three teams got disqualified.   Too bad, Mr. Carney was actually going to deliver on that Gatorade promise too....

Place      Team Reason for Disqualification
1st "Jourdan's Jerks" Anchor leg wore no shirt
2nd "Petro's Punks" Anchor leg previously lost to a high jumper
3rd "Ramzy's Reject's" Anchor leg wore a "wifebeater"
