Debra Vento hasn’t stopped setting records. Now a freshman at Duke University, the 2003 Adidas Outdoor National Scholastic High Jump Champion has already set the Blue Devils’ high jump record, raising it to 5-10 3/4. She set the record in finishing first at the Carolina Invitational. The mark is a NCAA provisional qualifying mark for the frosh. Vento and the Blue Devils will compete at the Atlantic Coast Conference Championships this weekend at the University of North Carolina.

Vento, a graduate of Freehold Borough High School, won four NJSIAA Meet of Champions titles in indoor and outdoor track during her scholastic career. She set the outdoor MOC mark at 5-10 and her best-ever high school jump of 5-10 1/2 is the second best in state history. In all, including relay, sectional and group meets, Vento won 12 NJSIAA titles.

It’s shaping up as a great indoor season for University of Michigan senior Lindsey Gallo. The Howell High School graduate, who is a junior eligible, has already won five races, set a field house record and qualified for the NCAA championships.

Gallo ran a personal best 4:40.91 in winning the one-mile run at the Meyo Invitational in South Bend, Ind. The mark was a NCAA provisional qualifier. At that same meet, she anchored Michigan’s distance-medley relay and garnered a NCAA qualifying mark of 11:11:58.

At the Michigan Invitational held at Central Michigan University, Gallo won the 800-meter race in a personal best 2:11.97, which was also a new CMU facility record for the event.

Gallo was a double winner at the Indiana Quad, capturing the mile in 5:00.77 and the 3,000 in 9:57.04.

The Big 10 Championships are Feb. 28-29 at Iowa City. The NCAA’s are March 12-13 in Fayetteville, Ark.
