Summer Sizzler #11 - 5K
June 25, 2003

             Scott Sutter Earns # 3, Mary Ferraro Wins  # 8 #                Art Roberts Topples Doug’s Oldest Mark

       Scott Sutter tested his mettle on the infamous Harrier cross country course for the first time this year, resulting in his third Sizzler win of the season. On a warm and humid evening, The Citadel alumnus scrampled up and down the wooded trails of Forest Park in a convincing 19:02.  GSH teammate Brian Walsh raced over hill and dale in 19:58 for a solo 2nd place. 
       Mary Ferraro remained undefeated on the turf this year among women with another impressive performance, a 21:28 effort good for 3rd place overall and her 8th Summer Sizzler victory this season, including now 5 in a row. Kathy Lynch was 2nd in 24:19 while edging Elizabeth Duquette (24:48) for master’s honors. 
        Senior Harrier ace Art Roberts chased Mary for five thousand meters in 21:35 to capture the men’s master and senior titles.  As a result, and with decidedly mixed emotions, he broke the record for 59 year old men of 22:24 set by Doug Blanchard eighteen years ago, Doug’s oldest Summer Sizzler record and one of the longest standing Sizzler marks.
