Gaby and Mr. T were named top jumpers in province.
Some names are familiar. Others are revelations (to me). Here are your Ontario Masters
Event-Group Athletes of the Year. (And why should you care? Because Ontario is challenging other subnational governing bodies to honor their best performers. In USATF, why not regional AoYs?) Female Throws:
Marie-JoseМЃe Le Jour. Male Throws:
Boris Zaitchouk. Female Sprints / Hurdles:
Karla Del Grande. Male Sprints / Hurdle:
Earl Fee. Female Jumps:
Gaby Szanto. Male Jumps:
Thevarajan Sinnathurai. Male Combined Events:
Ralph Cilevitz. Male Distance / Walks Co-Winners:
Paul Osland and
Michael Sherar. Female Distance / Walks:
Krista DuChene. Many of these set world records, so one wonders: Who are Ontario’s overall Athletes of the Year? The answer will be revealed at a
Sept. 27 awards banquet in Toronto (similar to what USATF does at outdoor nationals). One last query: How do other nation-states honor their best?

“How do other nation-states honor their best?”
Oh, god! very funny… for us, Romanians!
One other thing happening at that banquet. Our very own Doug Smith will be inducted into the Ontario Masters Hall of Fame! A great honour for a superb guy
