Grant wins second ESG gold in wet shot put clash
In a clash dubbed the Battle of the Big Men, Liverpool’s JJ Grant 6-1 226 edged Camden’s Chris Hall 6-1 250 to win the Empire State Games shot put with 57-11 as Hall settled for 56-634. Randall Douglas was third at 56-44 as drizzle kept marks short and Grant maintained lead after a preliminary winning throw. Hall praised the rivals, noting only a brief scare as Grant’s final rounds battled wet conditions. Other ESG winners included North Syracuse’s Janet Adams in javelin and Niskayuna’s Rod Ward in pole vault. Ward’s 14-9 vault briefly stood as a record before relief at 15-3.
