The 4x800 started the day for everyone, and Eve Bagley started us out with a 2:33.0. Katie followed with a 2:36.7, then Alexis with a 2:33.8. Sydney Snow took the baton in fifth and worked all the way up to third, running 2:23.5 for a total time of 10:07.19, less than three seconds of the record set by the 2005 crew.
The boys distance medley was seeded 10th and finished eighth - unfortunately they do medals to top six at this meet, not top eight like the actual state meet. Ed Glazebrook led off in the 1200 with a 3:42.5 (4:56 mile pace), then Rick Brown passed half the field in the 400 with a 54.3. Ben St. George ran 2:17 for the 800, and Mike Glazebrook anchored in 4:41.
Sydney and Eve had nearly three hours between races, but the wait was worth it. Emma Guccione led off with a (relay) PR of 62.9 seconds, then Eve ran 64.3 in the second leg. Helen Dolan (65.0 followed, and Sydney went from fourth to third on the anchor leg, ripping off a 61.7 to finish in 4:14.16, exactly half a second better than the school record.
No official team scores are up yet, I'll update later when they're available.
