Southern Track champions Roberts and Samuels to return for MileStat Gala

2006 Southern Track Classic champions Daniel Roberts of Colorado (mile) and Jeremy Samuels of Maryland (400) will be making return trips to Sports Backers Stadium as two of many big out-of-state commitments to come for the first annual MileStat.com Elite Track Gala to be held June 10th and 11th in Richmond, Virginia. Roberts is one of the nation\'s best milers this season as he owns two of the nation\'s five fastest mile times this spring at 4:10. Meanwhile, Samuels is a part of the outstanding DeMatha Catholic squad that is known for their strong relays and individually, Samuels is coming off a 48.18 400 meter dash victory at STC over Virginia\'s premier sprinters. Another recent big out-of-state commitment for the meet is one of West Virginia\'s top distance runners in Kaylin Christopher of Preston High School. Christopher has been racing sensational this spring including a 10:34 3200, 4:58 1600, and 2:15 800. Meet management and others will be working hard behind the scenes to make this an outstanding meet for a first year event. Check out the meet website and register online here.
