200 WINS

We have reached that milestone finishing 10-2 for the regular season. Fine job put in today by many of our reserve players. The final score is not really important, but we did have two people qualify for the State Qualifier: Real Deal in the High Jump and (who else) Boomayay in the triple.

The future is NOW!

QUAD MEET RESULTS

In a hard fought meet, the Ladyspartans pulled off victories over the Brownies, Blue Devils and Gaels. Same time next year?

Injury bug has plagued us this season, but we need to achieve victory on Thursday against former Valley Wheel rival, Palmer and Sci-Tech of Springfield.

We are sitting on 198 victories. If we prevail, we shall reach an astounding 200 victories for the program that was founded in 1975.

DIVA!

BRONZE MEDALISTS AT DIVISIONALS

Who'd a thunk? The Ladyspartans finished 3rd today at the Western Mass. Divisional Championships. The Green Lantern and Crumb took second places in the 400 and long jump respectively Mount Everett and Primetime achieved third places in the long and triple jumps. Boomayay, Chuckles and Dr. J took fourths in the low hurdles, two mile and mile earning season best performances in the process.

Each relay team scored impressively: 2nd in the 4 x 8, 5th in the 4 x 1 and 3rd in the 4 x 4. We're not done yet. This was just a "Dress Rehearsal" for the objectives we're looking for.

NEW: I wanted to add this to the post: NO INDIVIDUAL CHAMPIONS, but TOTAL TEAM EFFORT!

Out of all the teams in the top tier on Saturday, we had no Individual Champions, but we competed as a solid TEAM! HAIGO!

FOR ELEANOR CAOUETTE!

For those of you that don't know, the greatest Track & Field official in the history of this planet lives in Greenfield (Ken Caouette). His wife has been given a short time to remain with us. Yesterday the Ladyspartans gave out a phenomenal effort against the top team in Western Mass. Unfortunately they fell short of the winning objective, but you would never know it!

Primetime came through along with Chuckles to secure multiple individual victories. The Real Deal and Splurt assisted in two wins as well.

Can you say KIT KAT? We also have a new up and coming SALT N' PEPPA dynamo in the discus. The race of the day you say? How about the low hurdles? Was that a FRESHMAN that had Ludlow's ace athlete on the ropes? Did that same freshman anchor the winning 4 x 400 meter relay team!?! BOOMAYAY!

Ken and Eleanor would have enjoyed the SHOW today. May God bless her.
