Gloucester individuals & Maggie Walker teams rule at Newport News Inv Sep 08, 2007

 At the Newport News Invitational, two common trends were Gloucester individuals and Maggie Walker teams winning. Gloucester boasted the race champions in both A divisions with Doug Fenstermacher winning fairly unchallenged in 16:09, while Varnell had to use her AAU Junior Olympic 1500 national champion speed to pull away from the Maggie Walker duo of Clarissa Schick (2nd, 18:47) and Susannah Piersol (3rd, 18:52) in a winning time of 18:43. The Maggie Walker girls were not only impressive up front with their times, but from the top down through their seven with a team average of 19:30 in the A race and team score of 24 points. Coach Jim Holdren nearly had a total of eight Maggie Walker runners under 21 minutes with their seventh in the A race at 21 flat and their eighth runner in the B race just under 21 minutes as a race runner-up. The Maggie Walker boys also claimed the team title in the A division.
