winners for Southeast's men were Jay Heddell (shot put), Shelton Scott (triple jump), Jason Campbell (400), Adam Shupe (800), Chad Sierman (3,000 steeplechase) and Kelly High School product James Brainer (javelin).

On the women's side, Central High School graduate Courtney Haman won her second straight javelin title.

"It's a little bit of a home-court advantage," said a smiling Haman. "It was really exciting to have our teams win everything."

Other winners for Southeast's women were Sara Kaznica (pole vault), freshman Meleisa Greene (long jump), Laura VanHoevelaak (400 hurdles), Kaci Pilcher (1,500) and the 1,600 relay team of VanHoevelaak, LaQuita Andrews, Lyndsey Stevenson and Hannah Stuckenschneider.

"It's nice to win at home," Stuckenschneider said. "We always like to show the community and our friends what kind of team we have."

Southeast will get the opportunity to show off at home again May 3-4 when the Ohio Valley Conference Championships come to the Stuber Complex.

"We're already looking forward to that," Stuckenschneider said.

One of the stars of the All Sport Classic was Western Illinois' Amber Crumbo. After setting a meet record in the hammer throw Friday, she came back Saturday to win both the shot put and discus by wide margins.
