Longstreth Relays results

On Saturday, the girls (also) hosted the Longstreth Relays, our first meet.  We placed sixth (6th) out of 11 teams, and that was without entering the Distance Medley and having only one pole vaulter.

Four of the five field event relays placed:
·         Sophia, Tatiana and Emma were 5th on the Shot
·         Katy, Ellie and Tiffany finished in 6th in the High Jump
·         Lucy, our only vaulter, managed to get 4th in the event
·         Our Long Jump team of Annie, Emily and Christine captured 1st place, with Annie’s jump of 16 feet – 10 inches as the best of the meet.  That also improves her 2nd place standing on the Top Five All-Time list.

In the running events, we had two relays that placed:
·         The shuttle hurdle quartet of Daisy, Halle, Annie and Christine captured 2nd place
·         The 4 x 800 group of Emma, Elena, Emily and Margot came in 4th

Although there were several good performances, overall stand-outs for us were:
·         Elena, who had a nice double with a 6:01 in the 1600 and a 2:35 in the 800.
·         Iron ladies who were quite busy were Daisy and Annie, both of whom had to quadruple:
Annie in the long jump, hurdles, 4 x 100 and 4 x 400
Daisy had the hurdles, 4 x 100, 4 x 200 and a 400 in the sprint medley

Congratulations to all the girls for a great team effort!!!!
