The AAU National Junior Olympic Games & USATF National Junior Olympic Championships are beginning to get underway this week with Virginian preps competing in both events with the AAU in Tennessee (July 28-August 4) and USATF in California (July 23-July 29). For the first time ever, both events are having live webcasts of the meets. The USATF webcast can be found here: http://usatfyouth.sportnet.com/ and the AAU webcast can be found here: http://www.aaujrogames.org/trackfield_playon.php
Several Virginians will be in contention to become AAU Junior Olympics national champions or at least All-Americans in their respective events. Dejor Simmons of Deep Creek (pictured above by John Herzog), the Eastern Region 100 meter champion as a freshmen this past spring, is the top seed for the intermediate boys in the 100 and 200 meter dash. Meanwhile, Landstown rising junior Marlena Wesh has the second best seed time in the 100 and 200 meter dash among intermediate girls.
