Whelan excels at Junior Nationals
Recent Hamburg grad Joe Whelan took second in the 3,000-meter Steeplechase at the USA Junior National Sunday at Hayward Field in Eugene, Ore.
Whelan ran a time of 9:09.97, second to Sean Soderman (Appalachian State) in 9:05.82.
The top two finishers in each Junior National event qualify for the Pan American Junior Games, however those games maybe be canceled (thanks to dyestat.com for the link).
Here's a link to a post by the Syracuse University -- where Whelan will be competing for the Orange next year.
