East Palestine Relays

This past Friday, Girls’ Track & Field traveled to East Palestine to compete in the East Palestine Relays.

Although we finished in 5^th, nearly every relay group had a Season Best performance.  There were three races – 4 x 100; 4 x 200; 4 x 800 -- where the top three teams (which included us) were bunched within a second of each other at the finish line.  Very exciting running, to say the least.

Our highlights:

Shot and discus relays were 6^th, while the high jump duo, which came in 4^th, turned in their best combined total of the year.

Finishing in 3^rd place and having Season-Best times were the 4 x 1600, the Distance Medley, and the 4 x 800. The long jump relay also in 3^rd, had their best combined jump total of the season.

We had 4 relay teams that captured 2^nd places.  These included the Shuttle Hurdles and the 4 x 400, that had a 3-second season best time. Also coming in 2^nd place was the quartet of Trish, Cat, Annie and Daisy, who ran both the 4 x 100 and the 4 x 200, and in each event, came within a second of the school record.

         

Great job, Ladies.
