MALONE OPENS SEASON WITH STRONG WIN VS. TUPPER LAKE

April 19: The Franklin Academy Boys Track Team got off to a good start vs. Tupper Lake on Thursday afternoon with a 183-34 victory. Coach Matt Tessier said, "This meet turned out to be a great opportunity for FA to figure out where the training deficiencies are at this time as we head into future meets next week and beyond."  Malone won almost every event individually, but just a few standout performances were evident with the wind and with Tupper Lake's team being a small team, some events were just FA against FA.   Throughout the meet, several Malone athletes who were not expected to place beat their own teammates who scored points.  This is a positive for the team as it works to solidify who will compete in which events over the course of the season.   Event by event, the Huskies won the 4x800 with Corey Lamere, Conor Gordon, Doug Fitzgerald and Morgan Marlow.  The 110 hurdles was won by Geiger of Tupper Lake in 18.3 with Malone taking 2nd through 4th scoring spots.  Jamiel Stapleton led the Huskies at 19.8.  Harvey Smith won the 100m against a headwind in 11.6 seconds, followed by Aaron Sharlow FA, Boyer of TL, Bailey Fellion FA and Grayson of Tupper.   In the Triple Jump, Curtis Blow started to return to form of three years ago with 36'10" for the win, 2nd and third were personal bests by Joe Perry at 36'2.5" and John Picaro at 35'0.5" for a sweep.  The shot put was won by indoor champ Mike Sharrow in 43'4", second was Duncan Marshall at 34'9"m, third was Boyer of Tupper and the fourth was Charland of FA in personal best 31'.  Watkins and Decosse, who were not expected to place, threw 34'3 and 31'3 respectively to get noticed for the next meet.   The Huskies' distance team was strong as usual with 1-2-3 in the 1600m behind Morgan Marlow, Conor Gordon and Corey Lamere.  The same three paired up for the 3200m, with Gordon 10:03.6, Marlow, and Lamere the top[ thrree.  In the 1600m, outdoor personal bests were run by Mike Haas 5:04, Dylan Lavoie 5:05 and Patrick Gordon at 5:07; all three could have broken 5:00 without the wind.   In the 4x100m, FA ran 47.5 with bad handoffs and against the wind.  Harvey Smith (4th in the state and Federal competition last year)returned to the track to run 51.9 in the 400m with Curtis Blow and Brennan Gervais taking 2nd and 3rd.   John Picaro ran his first 400H and broke under the minute barrier at 59.8.  Said Coach Tessier, "This makes him a good candidate to challenge (Nick) Crawford of OFA this season."  Geiger of Tupper was second followed by Jamiel Stapleton and Brady Monette.  The 800m was won by Doug Fitzgerald, 2nd to Bach Schanck and 3rd to Patrick Gordon.   In the event, Lavoie and Decosse also ran well enough to place and be considered scoring options for the next meet.   The 200m was won by Bailey Fellion in 25.9, Brennan Gervais was 2nd at 26.5, Boyer of Tupper 3rd and Joe Perry took 4th at 27.4, while teammate Zach Lamica also ran well at 26.9.  The 4x400 relay had five FA teams.  Malone's Smith, Gordon, Picaro and Fitzgerald cruised to an easy victory.   In the remaining field events, Mike Sharrow threw a personal best of 119'11.75 inches in the discus, while Charland also had a personal best at 100 ft,, followed by Marshall at 82 ft.  Curtis Blow rode his triple jump success to win the high jump at a personal best 5'6", with Sharlow and Stapleton reaching 5'4" each.  The long jump featured Sharlow at 18'1", Fellion at 16'1", Geiger of Tupper and Blow at 15'11".  Also, unexpected leaps of 17'3" from Stapleton and 16'4" from Joe Perry would have been 2nd and 3rd places.
