From sprints to throwing events, Christian Brothers Academy’s boys track and field team covered every discipline en route to the Section III Class B-2 championship.

In Friday’s B-2 meet at Canastota High School, the Brothers piled up 200 points, holding off Clinton, who had 169 points, for the top spot. Hannibal was a distant third with 64 points.

Brendan Smith dominated the distance running events. He ran the mile in 4:36.12 to prevail by more than six seconds, tore through the 3,200-meter run in 10:21.30 to beat the field by more than half a minute and, in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, capped his own triple crown by winning in 10:33.29 as teammate Sid Perkins was sixth.

Also, Smith was second in the 800-meter run in 2:04.15, with Danny O’Connor fifth and Jack Brower sixth. O’Connor and Brower joined Matt Marzocchi and Kevin Frasier to win the 4×400 relay in 3:35.15, more than five seconds ahead of Clinton.

Dan Predmore swept the shot put and the discus. In the first, he threw the shot 42 feet 4 inches, with teammate Clarke Cady (41’11 3/4″) second and Deshawn Salter sixth. Then, in the discus, Predmore heaved it 144’9″, more than 24 feet ahead of anyone else.

A deep pool of sprinters would help out, too. Dametrius Brown won the 100-meter dash in 11.67 seconds, with Salter second in 11.70 seconds and Nate Fornal fifth. Kevin Frasier earned a 400-meter victory in 50.15 seconds, leaving Jack Brower in third (52.85 seconds) and Jared Sayles fifth.

Frasier also was second (23.46 seconds) and Brown third (23.60) in the 200-meter dash, where Fornal got sixth, while Will Brower was a close second (16.84 seconds) to Hannibal’s Stephon McGee (16.83) in the 110 high hurdles and fourth in the 400 hurdles as Liam Price (1:03.18) took third.

Together, Brown, Fornal, Nate DePerro and Aaron Morgan would help CBA claim the 4×100 relay in 45.48 seconds, with Clinton (47.29 seconds) again in second place. The Brothers were fourth in the 4×800 in 9:08.64.

Morgan had his own triumph in the high jump, clearing 5’10” with fewer misses than Clinton star Devin Cornelius as Brower (5’6″) was third. Ryan Vignogna cleared 10 feet for third place in the pole vault, while Ethan Gorman was third in the pentathlon (1,840 points) and Sayles was fourth in the long jump.

While all this was going on, Jamesville-DeWitt’s boys just missed in its quest to match their female counterparts and complete a sweep of the sectional Class A meets at Fulton, getting 105.5 points, just behind Indian River’s winning total of 110 points.

Will Sterriker continued to roll for the Red Rams in the 400 hurdles, winning in 56.09 seconds as Nate Sturgeon (59.14 seconds) was fourth, but Sterriker had to settle for third (15.33 seconds) in the 110 hurdles, an event he had won through most of the spring, as Sturgeon was sixth.

It was the same for Ryan Peters in throwing events. His discus toss of 142’4″ was one inch behind Westhill/Bishop Ludden’s Corey Wilkinson, with Davis Elmore sixth, and Peters took a third in the shot put with 45′ 3 3/4″, where David Barletta finished sixth.

J-D nearly swept the relays. Sterriker, Taumeras Howard, Zach Liebmann and Navale Taylor roared to a top time of 44.50 seconds in the 4×100, nearly a full second better than Indian River (45.49), while in the 4×800 Nick Harron, Samuel Dye, Isaac Tupper and Alex Wilmot claimed a classic, edging Whitesboro, 8:38.57 to the Warriors’ 8:38.72.

But Whitesboro did take the 4×400, leaving Dye, Liebmann, Taylor and Sturgeon second in 3:32.66. On his own, Liebmann, sixth in the 400 sprint, got second place in the pole vault, clearing 12’6 as Camden’s Aaron Davis (13 feet) prevailed. Taylor and Dylan Volk were fifth and sixth, respectively, in the triple jump.

Harron stood out in distance events, winning the 3,200 in 10:32.02 as East Syracuse-Minoa’s Jesse Perrone was second in 10:36.46. Harron also snagged a second-place finish in the mile in 4:38.48, with Dye fourth in the 800 in 2:07.99. Howard ran to third in the 100 sprint in 11.66 seconds.

Perrone had the highest finish for an ESM side that got just 19 points in the Class A meet. Corey Volmer cleared 11’6″ for third in the pole vault, right behind Liebmann. Jeff McDuffie had a fourth-place long jump of 21’1 1/4″, while Matt Hoalcraft was fifth in the 400 (52.95 seconds) and Louis Ferrone was sixth in the 3,000 steeplechase.
