HOW TO WATCH: AAU Junior Olympic Games

    - - -

      SATELLITE BEACH, FLORIDA -- The second day of the AAU Junior Olympic Games kicked off at Satellite Beach High School, and action began to heat up -- both figuratively and literally. There were finals in the 4x800m and preliminaries of the 80mH, 100mH, 110mH, 100m, and 400m. In the field events, there were a handful of long jump, discus, and shot put competitors between the ages of 12 and 16. 

      The 400m captured the highlights of the day. Nine-year-old Victor Jaimez-Solorio continued his domination on the track and ran the fastest time of the day for his age group with a 1:05.73. Mekenzie Rogers of Florissant, Missouri ran a 57.60 in the 12-year-old age group after running the fastest time in the 100m of 12.86.

      After making the 800m final on Wednesday, Michaela Rose returned to the track ran the fastest time in the women's 17-18 division preliminaries, clocking a time of 55.60.

      Meanwhile, spectators -- in masks -- were able to see Auhmad Robinson cruise to the ninth fastest time this outdoor season in the 400m. The Stephen F. Austin signee goes into the final on Saturday with the fastest time of 47.75. Bryce McCray, the national champion in the men's 17-18 division of the 400mH yesterday, goes into the final with the third-fastest time of 48.20.

      Lucheyona Weaver also made it into the finals of the 100mH with a leading time of 14.31. Makeriah Harris ran the fastest time in the 100mH in the 14-year-old division with a 14.27. Harris is also made the 400m final with the second-fastest time in her age group with a 56.34 -- and on Wednesday, she also made the final of the 200m, which will take place on Friday. Christin Facey leads the 14-year-olds in the 400m with a 55.85.

        TOP PERFORMER OF THE DAY

        - - -


        The fastest 100m time of the day came in the 11th heat of the boys' 15-16 age group. Erriyon Knighton put on the jets and ran a blazing time of 10.45 into a -1.0 wind. The rising junior from Tampa Hillsborough (FL) has a personal best of 10.40, which he ran at the RSS CO-19 2020 Summer Series #2 in mid-July. The national record in this event is 10.27 that was set back in 1996 by Ryan Berard of Houston, TX. But Knighton has the opportunity to win his first gold medal in the 100m at the AAU Junior Olympics. Last year, he earned the silver medal in the 200m and bronze in the 400m.
