  • DRAKE RELAYS SATURDAY QUOTES April 26, 2008
    DRAKE RELAYS SATURDAY QUOTES April 26, 2008 Baylor, winner of women's university-college 4x1,600 relay in Drake Relays record of 19:05.80 which also was Drake Stadium mark and top time in U.S. this season. Lauren Hagans, who ran anchor leg: "It feels amazing to break the Drake Relays record. I could feel the Minnesota anchor (Heather Dorniden) coming strong on the last lap so I just tried to hold her off. I could hear my teammates cheering for me and it really pulled me through the last lap." Danielle Bradley, who ran the second leg: "Last year we ran the DMR and the 4x800 against Minnesota and we both broke records in the races, but they beat us both times. This year is a role reversal and it feels good to be on the winning side." Erin Bedell, who ran third leg: "We love coming to Drake Relays. The crowd is always so great and very encouraging. We never really run individual races, so it's a lot of fun to compete with your teammates." On winning a race that isn't run that often: "None of us really run individual races when we come here, so it's a lot fun. It's fun to come out here and try something different. A bunch of us ran the mile in high school, so we're used to the distance. It makes it fun to compete with your teammates and run for each other.'' Did you think Minnesota was your main competition?: We knew there were so many teams capable of running really fast.

Nevertheless, when we look at the balance of achievements and accomplishments of both the NACAC AA and Athletics as a whole, it is positive due to our athletes from grassroots to high performance. It was a year full of expectations due since there were Continental Areas Election Congresses in all six Area Associations and, moreover, there were elections for all the IAAF elected positions including, for the first time in many decades, two great individuals were running for the presidency of the IAAF. These particular situations kept everybody in a stage of expectations and busy either campaigning or trying to define each one particular individual future. I do not have to go over the outcome or specific results of the different elections since you all know those results but I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all those individuals who ran for elected positions at all levels and were elected and also congratulate those who put their name forward for elections and did not get elected.

  • Former Asian and Pacific Islander American Members
    H part one H Former Asian and Pacific Islander American Members 42940_04-APA-CE1.indd 31 2/13/2018 11:53:10 AM Exclusion and Empire 1898–1941 Around midnight, May 1, 1898, nine U.S. warships slipped past the strangely quiet guns on Corregidor Island, past the old Spanish fort guarding the entrance to Manila Bay, and sailed silently toward the Philippines’ capital city. After about five hours, the U.S. Navy’s Asiatic Squadron dipped down close to Sangley Point, just to the southwest of Manila, where a dozen Spanish ships rested at anchor. As dawn broke, the Luneta battery onshore began firing at the intruders. Manuel L. Quezon, a 19-year-old law student in Manila, woke to the cannon fire and ran to the beach as Spanish forces lobbed volley after volley at the American squadron. Then, at 5:40 a.m., U.S. Commodore George Dewey gave the command to open fire. The American warships sailed in an elliptical pattern, each one emptying a broadside into the Spanish fleet before circling back around.
