Nothing like mixing things up!!!! - RFH results.

I don't know where to even start! What an awesome day of track and field yesterday. NO we didn't win the meet, but then again that wasn't our goal yesterday. Yesterday was about running fast, and running strong and just seeing what would happen. Well here's what happened:

400Hurdles -

• Kathleen dropped her time by 4 seconds breaking 75 for the first time
• Eileen dropped her time another 2 seconds and ran a confident race for a change
• Katelyn dropped her time almost 3 seconds from Saturday - we're on track!

100M -

• Giulia, Dana, and Alyssa all stepped up and ran 13.8's an improvement from the last couple weeks for all of them and a season best for Dana and Giulia

1600M -

• Lilia ran a season best 5:47
• Alexa, after a huge PB on Saturday, dropped another 5 seconds to run 6:05
• Deb Kim also smashed all her previous times, clocking in at 6:07

400M -

• Paula and Emily both ran the open 400 for the first time all year and both ran season bests. Emily at 61 and Paula right behind her at 62. WOW!!!!!!!
• Rachel and Lisa both put out impressive efforts to finish at 65
• And Anna ran 69 to round out the quintet of killer 400's

800M -

• I can't say what I was really going through my head after this race, but something like this - HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOSH!!!!!!! DID THAT REALLY JUST HAPPEN!!!!!!!
• Julianne, having never run an 800 before, just went for it and came out with the best 800 on the team for the whole season - 2:31! What!!! And while the officials called it differently we all know she won the race.
• Meanwhile, not to be outdone by her sister, Laura stayed on Julianne's heels the whole race and finished at 2:35!!

100M Hurdles -

• Dorrie, Katelyn, and Kathleen all ran almost stride for stride with each other over all ten hurdles. Katelyn and Kathleen both ran 18.2, a season best for each of them, while Dorrie broke into the 17's again and as far as I'm concerned won the race on the lean.
• Eileen ran a 19.4 and once again ran a much more confident and consistent race.

3200M -

• Katie turned in another strong performance running 12:25 and almost catching the Rumson girl at the very end - start that kick a little sooner!

4x400 -

• All four girls ran great times with Dorrie leading off with her season best split 63. Kathleen followed with a season best split of 64.9 and did a fine job trying to stay close to a girl who ran 59 sec. Lisa and the Rachel finished off the relay with strong splits of 66 and 65 respectively. Just so you know the anchor for Rumson ran a 57.

In the field -

• Michelle scored in all three events with a Season best in the shot and a win in the javelin
• The girls swept the javelin, the triple jump, and the long jump with Lisa Yan posting another 32+' jump in the triple.

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST - THE QUEEN HORNET OF THE MEET IS:

• ALAINA BONTALES WHO CONTINUED IMPROVING IN THE POLE VAULT, CLEARING 8' AND TIEING THE SCHOOL RECORD
