No Athol, No Problem: WE'RE GREAT!

Despite Athol being unable to come to the meet last Friday, the Ladyspartans clinched their 4th Divisional title in eight years. Their overall record in that time period is 51-8, the highest winning percentage amongst all sports teams in East Longmeadow's history (.864). Girls Outdoor Track & Field ranks as #4 overall with 190 wins, 97 losses and 6 ties (.659). Only Boys Swimming (the dynasty of the 60's 70's & 80's) as well as Golf rank higher than Girls Outdoor Track & Field.

Twice As set a personal best in the mile by finally going under 6 minutes (can anyone ask her to do Outdoor now, as Tennis might not be her racquet?). FloJo leaped a personal best 14-3 and Girl Scout earned big points in the 300. In a display of true sportsmanship, Chuckles helped K-Mart qualify for Western Mass in the two mile, and Giddy up earned her best time and Little Kane pr'd at 14:29.

The PVIAC Championships loom and that nasty team to the West looks like the favorite. Not to worry: WE'RE GREAT!
