4 Feb. – – Hendricken’s track forces dominated Suburban Division teams on Wednesday night at PCTA. In the Metropolitan Division, it was La Salle, 115-96 over a strong Central squad.
In the Metropolitan meet, La Salle’s “Ram Charger’’ trio of distance men were impressive as always. The 1500 meters was won by senior Jack Salisbury in 4:00.49, with teammates Matt Bouthillette and David “DJ’’ Principe finishing second and third respectively. Thirty-nine 1/100ths of a second separated the three runners. Salisbury also aced the 1000 in 2:31.48, with Principe winning the 3000 in 9:06.04. Barrington’s talented junior Mars Bishop took the gold medal in the 600 meters (1:26.69.)
Hendricken senior Dom Parlato was double gold. He clocked 4:15.03 in the 1500 and ran the 3000 meters in 9:01.99. Top U/S.-ranked Bobby Colantonio, of Barrington, easily won the Metro weight throw; his mark was 77-5 (23.59).
