BOSTON It was a great day for Massachusetts at the B.A.A. Invitational Mile, with Bay State native Johnny Gregorek and Annie Rodenfels, who competes for the B.A.A. High Performance Team, taking victories in the professional race after dozens of young local athletes delighted in the opportunity to cross the Boston Marathon finish line in races of their own.
