Once the girls track team showed theire might by dominating division 1 Merrimack. Hannah Gillis narrowly missed breaking the school record in the 1600 and as has been all season Mikayla Hickey remained untouched in the 100, 200 (27.4 her fastest time to date) and long jump. Other impressive performances: Anna Farrow (1st in hurdles, 2nd in 200 & long jump), Kate Birmingham still undefeated in the 400 and Juliane Donohue took first in the shot put.
The boys, missing several key performers, placed second led by Cameron Behn with firsts in the 400 (58.4), hurdles and season best 16' 6" long jump. Keelan McKenzie took first in the 800.
