The Bennett Bubble in Toms River New Jersey held this years NJSIAA Group 2 and 3 State Championships for a huge Track and Field meet where a bunch of athletes from different schools competed in different categories. There was a lot of talent runners that got some record times during this event. College scouts were even in attendance recruiting potential athletes for their team as some of them get ready for bigger races in college. Most high Schools had multiple people running at the same time or in different races. All of the athletes, coaches and trainers worked hard to get to this point.

Our headquarters is located at the FloSports HQ in Austin, Texas. We continue to maintain our original MileSplit office just north of Orlando, Florida as a branch office of FloSports.
We are enthusiastic about technology, trends, open source, LAMP architecture, and cloud computing. In September 2010 we migrated 100% to the cloud on the Amazon stack. We believe strongly in our original mission, which is in lock-step with that of our new parent company. We build the sport through passionate coverage on every level.
One runner that we were covering was junior Delaney Spalthoff from Jackson Liberty where she is a multi sport athlete with playing soccer also. Spalthoff is 5'3'' with speed, move quick off her feet and soccer helps when turning on the bend on race track. Spalthoff was the only one who was competing for Jackson Liberty as she was getting ready to run the 400 meter dash group 2 finals and 800 meter run group 2 finals. In the 400 one Spalthoff finished with a mark of 1:00.96 which was 3rd for H#. In the 800, Spalthoff got a mark of 2:26.28 that ended up being 2nd for H#.
Delaney Spalthoff is a fantastic athlete as she can learn from this race, continue to improve and grow getting ready for next opportunity. Keep an eye on runner/soccer player Delaney Spalthoff and her future is bright. Spalthoff is only a junior at Jackson Liberty, she will have more experience as a senior before going to college. Spalthoff's speed is remarkable which comes from talent, hard work and listening to her coach when it comes to the training routine.
