East Palestine Girls’ Invitational

On Saturday, Girls’ Track & Field travelled to East Palestine to compete in the East Palestine Girls’ Invitational, where we finished in 7th place out of 11 teams.

The team scored in 10 of the 15 events that we entered, with the following highlights:

Nina captured 5th place in the 1600 and Sam earned 6th in the 800.

the 4 x 100 was 4th; and
the 4 x 400 ended the meet with a very exciting 3rd place
             
The Iron Lady of the meet was Co-Captain Cat Berry who began with a high jump clearance of 4’ 2”, then hustled over to lead off the 4 x 800 (a brand new experience
for her) in a very solid time of 2:40.3, helping the relay to its 4th place finish.  Cat then toed the line for the open 400, where she captured 2nd place in 65.2.  She finished her day with another 65.2 as the anchor of our 3rd place 4 x 400 relay.  Great quadruple.  Congrats to Cat and the rest of the team.
