On Thursday afternoon, the Friends Seminary track team dominated their championship meet. Racing against Dwight, Berkeley Carroll, Packer, Saint Ann’s, Brooklyn Friends, and UNIS, Friends Seminary’s boys came in second and the girls came in first. The girls’ win was particularly impressive given that Friends brought only six girls to the meet.
Friends was boosted by a slew of impressive individual performances. On the girls side, sophomore phenom Emma Vasta-Kuby won first place in the 100m and 200m race. On the boys side, Wilner won the 100m, and Tyler McCully won the 400m (he ran it in an incredible 51:45). These were just a few of the remarkable individual performances from the Thursday meet.
Next up for the track team is states, which will take place this coming week. But, first we offer our congratulations to coaches Warren Salandy, Pam Boehm, and the entire track team!
