Ellison Up, FitzSimons Out in NCAA East Regional 800


Sam Ellison took care of business in heat 6 of the preliminary round of the East Regional 800 meter competition. Ellison ran 1:49.65 to win his heat and advance to the next round of competition tomorrow. Chris FitzSimons ran 1:50.90 in heat 1, finishing in 6th place. Only the top three finishers in each of the 6 heats was guaranteed a spot in the next round, with the next 9 fastest times also advancing. FitzSimons had to sit and watch the remaining 5 heats to determine his fate. He was still in the competition through 5 heats, but was eliminated when the 4th and 5th runners in heat 6 came in faster than his 1:50.90.









Here are the merged results of the 6 heats:
