With impressive performances from every member of the team, the St. Andrew’s Middle School Track and Field program put on a dominating performance at the AIPL Championship meet held at St. Andrew’s this spring. Three of the four teams (5th/6th boys, 7th/8th girls, 7th/8th boys) took home the title in their respective divisions and though it is tough to not include them all, here are some highlights of the event:
■ 5th/6th girls 4x1 and 7th/8th girls 4x1 both took 2nd ■ Mary Louise T. won the shot put and discus events in the 7th/8th girls division, setting a school record in shot put. ■ Holly H. won high jump and placed 3rd in the mile in the 5th/6th girls division ■ 5th/6th boys 4x1 won their race and were undefeated on the season ■ 7th/8th boys 4x2 and 4x4 both finished 2nd ■ Reed R. won the 800m with a time of 2.05.40, beating his own school record, setting an AIPL record and recording the fastest time in that event by a middle schooler in the country!
Congratulations to all our middle school track and field athletes on a very successful season!
