North 4x800 Team Runs 9:29.80

The Newton North girls sent several teams to the McIntyre Elite relays on Sunday, where the track was still humming from Bernard Lagat's American 5000m record and all the other fast running from the previous night.

The girls 4x800 team of Margo Gillis, Ariana Tabatabaie, Jaya Tripathi, and Maggie Heffernan ran an impressive time of 9:29.80, and finished less than a second behind the winning Bishop Feehan team.

The 4x200 team (Kayla Wong, Carla Forbes, Steph Brown, and Meghan Pursley) ran their best time of the year by over two seconds, finsihing 5th in 1:47.62.

The long jump relay (Forbes 17-11.5, Pryor 15-02.75, and Amy Ren 14-8) placed 2nd, while the high jump relay (Emily Hutchinson 5-01.75, Lucia Grigoli 4-11.75, and Ren 4-6) placed 5th.

North also fielded a shot put relay (Smira Azadzoi 28-03.75, Kate Bellerose 28-02.75, and Michela Salvucci 22-03.50) and a distance medley team (13:30.97).

Steph Brown was on the LJ team, while Maeve Larkin was on the HJ team, because Amy Ren is injured.
