024and games going on in the gym but uh what's going on some volleyball or something yeah there was some corn hole some games of jackpot throwing up the football really showing off some of the athleticism of the athletes uh but we're back out here you can scooch up a little bit cool it's just this yeah you can peek a little bit let them know dan if he's peeking too far yeah we've all been leaning over a little too far but that's okay and they are off girls 400 that's next please be at the start yep men's 400 we got aiden britt is out like a bat out of hell he is so fast aiden will be playing a key role coming up at the tri valley league showcase meet and he is out strong through

025the first 200 meters as he goes into the back curve boys and girls 800 please check out the table boys and girls at this point it's really a race for second yeah the table works the curve comes on the home straight boys and girls eight hundred please check out the table brit is a d1 commit going to high point university next year to pursue an academic and uh track future unbelievable just a great athlete multi-sport athlete then oh yeah football player let's see looks like second place for medway and it'll be pretty close for third yeah aidan just like the wind yeah i gotta say low 50s if i had to guess maybe a 52 or a 53 second on that one 400 that's unbelievable girls 400 up next boys 110 meter hurdles on deck

026followed by girls 100 hurdles yeah i was just working the 4x1 uh down at the second or sorry that rather the first exchange area so um that's always exciting and quick action make sure that the kids are staying within the two big triangles uh no issues there on my end so that's great so um how would that stand up in college that must be like d1 fast like yeah good right there right yeah you know certainly a good future ahead of him at high point um you know there's some good athletes right around his speed you know that's the top of the pyramid where things get really cooking so you know maybe we could see a sub 50 out of break coming up with the tvls or the statement where he's going to play an

027absolutely crucial role so here comes the second heat of the men's 400 we got two dover sherman athletes taking the back straight right now so no medway uh mustangs in this one huh yeah it kind of shows the depth of the dover sherman team that even in these middle distance events we got sometimes two or three heats of athletes to run through unbelievable there's more runners than there are fans here it's a scorcher i wouldn't want to be running the 400 that's for sure no you know luckily the shower came and cooled it down a bit but it still is a scorcher oh yeah i'll say all right we got a we've got a little race for uh first here between two teammates looks like uh number four is gonna come out at the end

028of this one wild five they're right about 65 by my watch uh-huh so you um you were a shot put thrower weren't you yeah well yeah back in the day i did a little bit of everything i used to run 400 hurdles and then i throw the javelin and the discus it's been a real privilege to be able to give back to the program that was so much fun and good competition in high school so i've been showing the kids javelin shop put in discus and working them through and you also coach your uh little brother johnny bennett huh yeah indoors that was a great opportunity johnny uh broke the 55-record which we were very proud of and now he is uh pursuing a lacrosse season much too much to my dismay but he's loving

029it he's having a good time so you know he made the right call yeah yeah really the whole family's been involved with track for a while my mom was uh the mid distance distance coach up until this past year when robert moser took over and my mom is still the [Music] indoor head coach of the boys and girls team and then my dad works with the linebackers in football so everyone's everyone's really involved in my sister of course back in the day was three sport runner as well so wow we're all about it at the bennett household much like your family with a commentary oh you know yeah we uh we get in there you know yeah what's your call for the next uh ds medford lacrosse game while we wait on these hurdles that's

030a good question my call is that ds is gonna win um but you know that game was very close last time sorry folks i meant to say we have the the women's 400 meters coming up and then we'll be at the 110 hurdles something to look for be luke law floyer will be trying to get a preliminary time in the 110 hurdles in order to qualify for the state pentathlon which will be coming up in two weeks so he needs to get a mark in every event which i believe he's done everything except the hurdles and the high jump because he already ran the mile in an impressive 5 15 for a big strong guy like luke and he long jumped i think a top 15 mark in the tvl despite that not really being

031his event and of course he's a good shot putter i think he threw uh 37 feet outdoors so far but he had a good 39 foot throw against uh um hopkinton indoors to win that one so he's just a real competitor we got the girls 400 meters coming down the back straight right now looking fast the only one mustang in between a sea of raiders here oh yeah pink shoes has a nice lead here it's about like 15 yards or so maybe 10 takes the corner yeah a lot of raiders right here bunched up fighting for it 48 through 300 meters it's a nice lead here for 242. there you go i think that's zoey and then we got fielding coming through in 66 67 and they hold on to the one two and three

032and they do wow big sweep that's a feel-good sweep right there against the good divisional team medway yeah big league rivals sorry boys 110 meter hurdles so um did a long jump or something that was like a record is that true yeah that's yeah right on um he broke the long jump record earlier at uh this year meet the previous record was held by diaz track legend spencer robbins since ben re-broke his own record at our last duel meet here at home with a great leap of 22 feet and one inch wow absolutely massive ladies and gentlemen at home just think about that how difficult and challenging it would be to jump 22 feet especially a guy with a big strong frame like his football linebacker basketball that is very impressive there if you didn't

033hear over emily nick rinaldi jumped 22 22.1 oh 22 feet and one inch right yeah so we'll see what he can manage today and he'll also be over at the shot put um and he's already had a 41 foot throughout the season which is highly impressive i mean someone to be girls someone to be competitive at a league level in so many events that's that's pretty rare and it's always special when you have a an athlete like that especially a nice kid like nick rinaldi so call boys first call boys it's hard to talk over emily sometimes with that yeah i hope the viewers at home can hear us over the speaker but so um yeah what was i gonna say there let me say um do you encourage uh your kids to go into

034the gym and work out for uh track and field yeah lifting is a huge component of [Applause] lifting is a huge component of track and field events especially at the higher levels that you get so any kid that really wants to make something of themselves in track has got to be in the weight room and especially in my area of specialty the shot put discus and javelin that's a huge component is the upper body and lower body strength that they can put into a throw so most definitely we we get them in the weight room and encourage them out of practice because we don't we've only got so much time to work with them but that's how they get to the next level that's great here we go we got aiden hirsch warming up some

035nice form he'll be at the tvl meet running this event something to look out for hershey's also hersh is also looking to make his uh preliminary qualifier for this state meet coming up in the pentathlon that's where the team is hoping to get our first state title in track and field so see some of these big performers there as well yeah so where is that going to be taking place that will be at you know what it slips my mind so i don't want to speculate but well let us know yeah well some of the fans at home might want to be there so look out for um look out for sawyer garrett in lane he's right in the middle if our fans can see he's in a down position and luke laufler with the

036blonde hair he's trying to get his oh no he's in the next heap but here's sawyer garrett wow look at sawyer he is on fire three sawyer takes the lead followed by aidan hirsch followed by a medway mustang and there's steven fitzpatrick coming up trying to get third but sawyer garrett will take the win wow what 17 second finish there sawyer garrett it's an impressive time wow yeah he didn't even hit one very talented hurdler and in his own right and his father's been there every step of the way coach garrett as a former mit hurdles coach so he brings a lot of expertise to the team so is there a penalty if you knock one over how does that work does it shave time or something no so really the only penalty is the

037inefficiency of knocking into a hurdle it obviously slows you down so you want to get as close as possible without knocking the hurdles over but there's no there's no actual penalty the you can be disqualified if you knock over someone else's hurdle or impede in someone else's lane so sometimes that can get tricky here we should have in the innermost lane you'll see luke lawful or as i was mentioning before he's trying to make his qualifier for the pentathlon it states got lou to tommy down there in the red the official ready to start this race so luke has the yellow shoes i'm assuming yes and he takes the lead here a lot more athleticism than technique i'll say that but he's doing his best well-built runner here yeah and he is a soccer team

038oh yeah great soccer player yeah he is nice and football player there he goes so that's what he needs he needs to get a time on the board um so we can move on to the pentapoland coming up at the states and with the time of i think 20 seconds that was that should be able to do it right yeah not bad not bad the second lowest height girls turtle team yellow triangle second lowest height look at aid in here just uh being a good sports player oh yes there we go moving as as the hurdle crew moves these from the blue marks to the yellow marks um for context the boys hurdle at 39 inches and and the ladies hurdle at 33 inches for the 110 hurdles second call boys discus second call always

039tricky to get these hurdles in the right place with the proper orientation because it can be a costly mistake if the hurdles are off because these athletes have got it down to a t the number of steps they take in between the hurdles and the height that they're acclimated for people my phone's dead yeah the phone battery burns right up in this uh this heat this heat is brutal yeah damn bennett with the photo yeah it won't be my first photo op hopefully not the last absolutely we hope to see a lot more yeah [Applause] so what who are the notable uh female runners in this race definitely emily burt she's definitely someone to look out for in the 110 hurdles uh and especially some of the viewers that are big into diaz track and

040field as i'm sure there are many um emily is the uh younger sister of brooksberg who was quite a stud hurdler in his own right back in the day class of 2019 so the jeans have certainly carried on so emily burt's definitely the girl to look out for in the 110 hurdles and i don't know about the med medway roster but i'm sure i'm sure they've brought some good hurdlers absolutely so with with your bill i would expect you to be like a linebacker or like a running back or something what got you into track and field you know track and field like i was saying earlier has definitely been a family business my dad actually had the um men's javelin record here at dover sherburne um back in the day all the way up

041until pj doyle broke it with a crazy throw 184 so i just started doing track when i was a little kid my mom obviously was a coach so that really got me interested and i was around the team and just really fell in love with the sport i've definitely bulked up to throw college javelin but don't be deceived that was pretty quick on my feet back in the day in the 400 hurdles so i believe it [Laughter] i believe it that's probably the most fun event i'd say 400 hurdles yeah it takes everything you're running around popping those barriers i saw one funny clip i forget where but it was like a runner that literally just hit every hurdle over while he ran he like ran through it it was so funny that could happen

042we see down at the start line there holding the clipboard is another legend that's matt greeney um men's uh assistant i don't know if he runs the defense of the offense for the the ds lacrosse team and he's father of uh no agree legendary dias milor who ripped a 157 in the 4x800 over the weekend but here we are down at the start line of the girls 110 hurdles or 100 hurdles excuse me ah there we go neck and neck here wow there's emily bird along with two medway runners [Applause] with my with the medway mustangs yeah it seemed like that the second to last hurdle there is when she took her lead on the on the mustang and it looked like uh the mustang hit the uh the hurdle thing yeah like we were

043probably talking about earlier those can really become almost uh a break that you hit once you get a hurdle definitely slowed her down just enough so bert could get that w yeah emily had the momentum and that can be so key coming into the finish line can make or break a race when it comes down to the 10th of a second one of the great things that we have the privilege of doing here today is automatic timing so you'll see it takes a little bit longer to set up in the beginning and break down at the end but it helps the these races run so smooth and gets these athletes really accurate times so the automatic timing is a computerized system versus typically a hand time hand timed system that happens at most meets so

044it's a costly device but it's well worth it when those athletes get to have those precise times that they can use to qualify for big invitationals and statements technology so where do they put those things is it like a uh yeah basically down there at the start line uh lou to tommy his gun is um connected to um the he's got a device he's holding that connects it to the little truck down there at the finish line and that basically sends a signal and then as soon as they cross they have this photo technology and they have a sheet of which runners in which each lane so then they can look back and see down to the hundredth or even thousandth of a second if they need to on what the athlete's time was based

045on the picture synced up with um the time that they have that's amazing here we go second heat of the girls 100 hurdles looks like medway is going to hold on to the first and second place here and this one with 20 second finish i believe there we go yeah so just for context for the listeners that aren't privy to it the first heat is typically the fastest one so and they're even called scoring and non-scoring heats sometimes in the sprint events so that second event there counts for the athletes personally but typically won't count for the overall result of the meet the first heat would though oh good to know it's so nice to have a veteran up here two kinds yeah you should have heard me when i started out i was like

046i don't know what's going on well you know jack of all trades over here calling every every game and an event we got and uh i i do what i can it's honest work hey another day another dollar exactly let's see what's next is it the 800 meters it might be all the hurdles and blocks off the track men's discus will be starting soon got some guys warming up so how many um heats can uh or does an athlete usually compete in you know because it's like i see that they're not in every one so sometimes like you save your fast guy for certain ones or how does that work yeah exactly that's a great question so the tvl coaches get together at the beginning of the year and almost always agree to the same

047rule which is the 2-1 rule and that means an athlete can participate in either two field events and one running event or two running events and one field event so for instance like i was saying my lineup in high school was the 400 hurdles that was my one running event and then i did the javelin and the discus two throwing events versus my friend tylen mendez he had the uh inverse he did two running meaning the four by one and the 200 meters and then he would throw the shot put so basically the reason for that rule so that athletes don't get pushed too hard by the coaches and that they have sort of a reasonable thing on their plate now come the tvl showcase meet the rule changes and it becomes the three the

048three rule so you can either do two and one or you could even do three so if you've got a really talented runner um let's say i'll just you know make this up for the sake of explaining like noah greeny he might be able to even do the mile the two mile and the four by four or if you had a great talented throw where they could do the discus the javelin and the shot put or the high jump and the long jump in the shot put some combination of three events but yeah that usually comes into play with athletes like nick rinaldi or nick turk that are talented athletes that can be throwers and runners and jumpers nice thank you for answering that i hope not if we have to cancel the meat the

049lightning is close by and it's not going to be out of here lightning has been detected please collect your stuff the meat is clean oh no please please lighting has been detected so i guess the meat is cancelled i'd be willing to die for this meat i don't know about you hey i'm up here i'd be willing to also i'd be willing to put it on the line ladies and gentlemen to call this meat for you but safety safety needs to be paramount so we're gonna cancel the remainder of the meet i think that's a win for the boys and the girls on ds you know what i would say i'd be like all right you can still run but no more javelin you know what you know what i'd say i'd say you can

050still run but be extra careful you know don't let that lightning get you or we'll be liable yeah but you got rubber shoes on you're okay rubber shoes yeah that's it they say the safest place to be during lightning is either in a car or outside at a track meet so on that rubber mat i don't know how they detected lightning in the area does that mean someone saw it or do we have like a military sonar that's like yeah with all this technology i wouldn't be surprised yeah well my first big gig calling track and field and this happens oh god maybe it's divine intervention they're sending me back to coaching oh no well hey we loved having you and i guess uh we're gonna wrap this all right thanks for having me big

051handshake hey big shout out to the dsctv crew they always do great work and it was awesome to be a part of it today shout out to all the fans thank you so much you
