For the first time in school history (1974), the boys track team won their division of the Randolph Relays on Sat., 4/30.
This was the 3rd relay meet of the season for the boys. Two weeks earlier the team had competed in cold, wet conditions at the Morris Hills Relays. There, the strength of the jumps team was evident as it has been all season. Cory Colligan, Matt Herb, and soph Justin Maksimow combined for 112'10" to take 2nd place there, while Maksimow and Herb teamed with Antonio Hunt to take 3rd in the long jump with a 54' 7" total. The 4 x 100 team (5th), 4 x 200 (6th), and shot put (5th) all placed as well to help the team score.
As stated the boys won the Large School Division of the Randolph Relays by accumulating 53 points. The team of Juan Rios, Dan Maya, Hunt and Colligan won both the 4 x 100 and 4 x 200, both in season-best times. The 400 H team of Antonio and Gennaro Ruggiero and Hunt grabbed silver in the 3 x 400H relays. All 3 boys ran p.r.'s. Also, the long jump and pole vault teams took silver medals. Maksimow, Herb and Cuellar did a s.b. 56' 8" in the long jump while Kramaritsch, Ed Feeney, and Matt Messina vaulted to a total of 32' 6". Kramartisch hit his first 13 foot vault of the seaon.
The girls team was second at Randolph behind the host girls. Like their counterparts the girls 4 x 100 and 4 x 200 teams did well, taking 1st and 2nd respectively. Jr. Armani Blair, Lina Koch, sr. Camille Ingles, and fr. Keturah Orji teamed in the shorter race, with fr. Alicia Warren taking Koch's place in the longer one.
Inglese (16' 9") and Orji (16' 1") went 1-2 in the l.j. and with jr. Gentrix Shanga won that event. Orji led Ali Schroeder and Katrina Laemmerhirt to 2nd place in the h.j.
The distance girls made some waves for the first time in the season. They placed in every relay: 2nd in the 4 x 800 (Sam Tavalare, Laemmerhirt, Lindsay Schafer, and Marissa Karl. A different foursome took 5th in the 4 x 1600 (Alex Schneeberg, Steph Smith, Erin Miller, Mariah Chrisitan). Finally, the distance medley of Karl, Warren, Tavalare and Danielle Halikias placed 4th.
