LEAGUE CHAMPIONS AGAIN!


It's been a while since this has happened.

18 personal best performances along with a NEW freshman record later and we are the league champions.

Thanks to Northampton who scored 27- 0 in their distance race with Longmeadow yesterday to help.

We had lost the league title the past 4 years or so by an average of about 5 points.

Next up is the Western Mass. Championships where we still are the defending champions, but there are many challengers this year. It would be impossible to predict what will happen.

Time for Coach Budd to get back to the "whiteboard".

BUDD'S BACK


But he's listening to the greatest athlete in the history of Western Mass. Sports: Fred Lewis

Today Coach Budd inducted him into the Massachusetts Athletes Hall of Fame for Track & Field.

Mr. Lewis currently owns the Western Mass. Meet record in the long jump at 23 feet 8 inches.

This record has been around only since 1959!

Fred Lewis today is 75 years old and looks as though he could jump over 21 today if need be!
