________________

We had our first scoring meet today and because of the snow out last week we went with invitaional format where  kids were grouped by times rather than by meet.

So even though we had two scored meets today against LS and Westford we often did not get to match up in the same heats so it was not really dual meet competiton.  In fact many times our kids were split up among many heats so it was hard to compete against LS and Westford as we often did not get to see them.

This was two bad to some cases.  For example Lizzie Walkes has run 7.66 in her last two meets in the 55 dash.
The LS girl won today in 7.67, but was not in the same heat as Lizzie.  Head to head would have been better.

This made it realy hard to keep track of scoring.

LS 57   NS  43
NS 72  Westford  27

I was very pleased with our team effort today especially coming off of the break.  We went against a very deep LS team and stayed with them the entire meet.  The meet was decided by very small margins and many of the events were very closely contested.  What I liked most about today is that our girls believed that they could compete with LS and gave a very strong team effort.  I was very proud of the girls today.

We had wins in the 300, 1000, 2 Mile, Shot Put and 4 x 200 and we had a lot of kids fighting for places.

Charlotte Huth was our highlight of the meet today and she had a great head to head dual with Katherine Malone from LS in the 300. Charlotte decided to train with our cross country team this fall to increase her strength and it has paid off as she has chopped her PR from 44.50 from last year to 43.26 to run the fastest time today in the entire DCL field with Malone finishing 2nd among all of the DCL.  It was a very exciting race with Charlotte winning the battle to the cut and leading the entire way and Malone putting on a late charge.

Liza Hochberg ran a very strong race as well in the 300 to take 3rd in both meets in her first race at this distance in a time of 45.52.

Charlotte also ran a brilliant 2nd leg on our 4 x 200 that won both meets and set a team PR by 2 second.

Lucrecia Aguilar ran a very strong 1000 and used a strong kick to win with the fastest time in the DCL today in
3:12.37.

Sabrina Stacks led a Newton South sweep of the shot put with a winning toss and a PR of 28'9.25".  Jina An was  2nd in 28'1" and Anna Alsop completed the sweep with 27'2".  All  three placed in the top 6 among all DCL putters.  

Rebecca Grusby lowered her season best in the two mile with a win by over 30 seconds racing to 11:22.63.
Anna was 2nd against Westford and 3rd vs LS in 12:36.64.

Our 4 x 200 relay of Lizzie Walkes, Charlotte Huth, Yuriko Fukumura and Allison Arruda won both meets in 1:50.34.

Lizzie Walkes won the 55 vs Westford and placed 2nd vs LS in 7.78.  Yuriko Fukumura ran a season best to place 3rd against LS.

Clare Martin ran a very fast 5:25.82 mile to take 3rd against Ariel Keklak and Sidney Clary from LS in the mile. Allen Read of Weston, Taylor Kennedy of Notre Dame and Lee Al-Atraqchi of AB were also in the heat.  All of these girls are state level placers.  This was the most loaded event in the meet and Clare handled the race with a lot of poise.  For a frosh to face that kind of competition and to hang in there that well is remarkable.

Lizzie Fineman won her heat in the 600 and Alekhya Chaparala looked strong in another heat.  Two bad these girls could not have raced together.  They combined to place 2nd and 3rd vs LS and went 1-2 vs Westford.  

All NS marks.
