Girls Indoor Track Team 2013-2014 Captains Named


By Emily Caccam

Juniors Brittany Henry, Catherine Lacey, Leah Hotchkiss, and Dillon Schoen were named captains of the 2013-2014 girls indoor team on Wednesday (2/27). They will be replacing seniors Elizabeth Heaney, Grace Loh, Sophie Long, and Eleanor Smith.

In the 2012-2013 season, the team won the FCIAC, CIAC, and State Open titles, with seven girls moving onto the New England Championship this weekend.

Despite graduating seven seniors, the next season will not be a rebuilding year for the team. “Lucky for us, the majority of our points this season came from sophomores and juniors so we should be able to not only maintain our standards but continue to improve,” Hotchkiss said.

“The other captains for next year are all high achieving students and athletes, which creates a killer combination of determination and perseverance,” Hotchkiss added. Between our work ethic and individual talents, our potential is boundless.”

Neirad congratulates the captains on their achievements and wishes the best of luck to the 2013-2014 Girls Indoor Track Team.
