Newfound Track and Field was rewarded with some wonderful weather this past Saturday and everyone there rose to the occasion. Once again the athletes were excellent hosts to Gilford, Franklin, Mascenic and Concord Christian. The boys scored a whopping 155 points in their victory in the meet. In individual events Riley Smith and Brendan Adair took 1-2 in the high hurdles; Kerry Mattson and Mike Bruning duplicated this order in the 400 meter. Even more impressive were the first, second and third sweeps. Derek Mitchell led Riley Smith and Brendan Adair in the 300 Hurdles; Dustin Sewall was followed by Tyler Parker and Zac Morel in the 800 meter and Zac decided to have a Newfound parade in the 1600 meter leading Jake Lundberg and Jesse Mitchell. We also had victories in the jumps with Arved Wallenfels in the Long Jump and Jake Morel in the Triple Jump. Newfound also won both relays with Dustin, Derek, Tyler and Kerry in the 4 by 4 and Sam Harmon, Riley, Derek and Jake Morel in the 4 by 1. Quite the day for the team–well done and thank you for all your efforts.
The girls also came in first in the five-team meet. They were led by triple winner Maeghan Patten as she won the shot, discus and javelin. Other first-place winners were Victoria Spencer in the hurdles, Abby Erler in the 400, Sandra Rovick in the 200, and Allison Dorey in the 300 hurdles. Great effort, ladies!
