The track girls had a vast lead over both Trumbull (97-48) and Greenwich (124-20). The 4 X 100m relay team consisting of junior Meredith Jordan, and seniors Grace Doering, Meg Gilbert, and Caroline Zuckerman took first place with a time of 51.4 seconds. Pole vault was another strong event with sophomores Elizabeth Crafford and Charlotte Phillips tying for first with a height of seven feet, six inches. The strongest event seemed to be the 200m race, Doering, Zuckerman, junior Kelly Mahoney, and Jordan took the top four places, respectively. Senior Caroline McDonough placed first in the 3200m race with a time of 11:15.3. Gilbert came in first in the long jump with a jump of 15 feet, followed by junior Mackenzie Jones placing fifth with 13 feet, ten inches. The high jump was also a strong event for the Blue Wave with junior Christy Gasparino, Gilbert, and senior Emily Cordner taking the top three spots. Senior Amanda Koslo, sophomore Alex Iqbal and juniors Kelly Mahoney and Sam Simon took first place in the 4x400m relay with a time of 4:18.2.Gasparino took first place in every event she competed. She won the 100m and 300m hurdles, high jump, and the triple jump with all qualifying times for the Class M CIAC meet. Hopefully the girls’ track team will keep up the good work and maintain their undefeated record.
