Glenville had a great showing in the 4x400, finishing in 5th place with a blistering time of 3:17.37. The 4x100 also put up great times of 41.11 and 41.60
Also of note, Buckeye WR recruiting target Derrick Williams of Eleanor Roosevelt (MD) ran in both heats against the Glenville boys. Hopefully Teddy did a little recruiting for us.

Results
Freddie Lenix, 1st leg, Glenville, Ohio:
"This isn't my first time at the relays. We were here last year, but we dropped the baton going into the final leg. We been working hard for this... Being the lead off and on the outside lane, I didn't feel I had to chase anybody. There was no one in front of me, and I knew I just had to get out there. This feels really great winning a world class championship. We knew we could do it, but accomplishing it is what matters... I'm a junior and I have one more year to come back."</< b>
Theodore Ginn, 2nd leg:
"Being in lane 9 we knew that we wouldn't have anyone in front of us. I knew if we had a clean hand off we would take it through the curve, get to our anchor, and he would bring it home... I was involved in the dropped handoff last year, so I am relieved that this is over, and I'm just so happy that we won.... I want to dedicate this to our school district. They're trying to take the sports away from our schools, and I want to dedicate this to our schoolsw, because its important to keep the sports in the schools." </< b>
Jamario O'Neal, Anchor:
"I knew that my third leg was going to come through with keeping the lead, so all I had to do was take it from there. I think Camden was just behind us, but I ran a strong leg, so I knew he wasn't going to catch me... This is my first time at the Relays. I'm a junior so I'm hoping to be back again next year."
</< b>
Stephen Fuqua, 3rd leg:
"My feeling once I got the baton was that I just didn't want to get caught. I wanted them to chase me. I knew Jamaica had a good team, they had the fastest time coming into here, but they weren't going to get me. As the underdog, I think we surprised a lot of people. Nobody really expected us to win here... The Relays are really something. We never get to run with this kind of a crowd, so this is special for all of us. "</< b>
