Since splitting the first meet of the season, beating Montville and losing to host Pope John, the Marauder men have gone on a tear, ripping up Jefferson, Sparta, High Point and Vernon. With one final meet to go at home against Morris Hills, the squad has a 5-1 record.
The high point scorer for the team has been senior Matt Herb, who has been unbeatable in his specialty the high jump. He is undefeated in that event for the season. In addition, he is 4 for 4 in the triple jump against these last opponents and won the long jump twice.
Sr. Antonio Hunt and jr. Cory Colligan have been a strong duo behind him.
Transfer Hunt has placed in the top 3 in every meet in 3 or 4 events per meet. He has placed 1st 5 times; he is the top 110H man and has split with Colligan in the 100 and 200. Colligan has been a key performer in both those sprint races and the long jump and triple jump.
The team has done well with key people in their best events: sr. Paul Kramaritsch has hit p.r.'s in the pole vault (13') and is unbeaten. Sr. Chris Victoria has led the throwers in the shot and disc. He has picked up 6' in the shot from the beginning of the season and has now hit over 46'. Sr. Zach Miller and jr. Scott Rennalls have covered the distances. Miller has hit p.r.'s in both the 1600 and 3200.
Jr. Antonio Ruggiero has been consistent in the 400H and backing up in the 110H. Soph Chris Cuellar is the leader for MO in both the jav and long jump.
The girls are 4-2. Most outstanding has been fr. Keturah Orji, who has won practically everything she's been in--100, 200, 110H, high jump, and long jump. Sr. Allissa Hoffmann has been the top thrower and gone past her own school record in the javelin. Soph Marissa Karl has run away from most opponents in the 800 and 1600--running 2:23 and 5:15.
