The season does however continue onto the All-State Championships as Abby Laughlin became the second fastest East Longmeadow Harrier of all time at Stanley Park surpassing Meredith McGowan and finishing only three seconds behind future Hall of Famer, Lauren Litscher (the ONLY EL runner to ever actually WIN Western Mass.)
Abby's 15th place finish also earned her an MIAA medallion!
The other half of the "Abby Connection": Abby Rate finished 29th while also running the fastest time in her career by 18 seconds.
This season's Girls Cross Country team worked harder than any other team in school history. It earned them their first ever League Championship as well as the Ted Dutkiewicz Memorial Races title back in September.
Going back to the All-States is simply the icing on the cake and something planned upon back in August at the Pizza Shoppe.
Abby (Hammer) Laughlin
