...meet was felt by the 4x100 relay team of juniors Sean Meeker and Chris Lambert, senior Shawn Parker and co-captain Kobie Fuller. The quartet, who broke a school record with a run of 41.07 seconds two weeks ago at Columbia, were in position to win their IC4A heat at the Penn Relays, but a dropped baton on the anchor leg spoiled...

The winery is at the heart of the Gimblett Gravels, a 850-hectare triangle of stony ground that was first planted with vines nine years ago. The gravel reflects heat back onto the grapes, helping them ripen even in a wet year, something all too common on New Zealand's lush North Island...
