Track & Field - New School Record
Isabell Berthelsen
The Indoor Track and Field season has started, and at the team’s last meet a school record was broken. A relay team, consisting of Alsasce Sanders, Carolyne Yonta, Arielle Moheimani and Sophie Thomas, broke the school record in the 4x200 relay. The girls ran with a time of 1:54.45, and broke the old school record by a little less than one second. The old record was 1:55.31. The 4x200 is a hard race; according to Coach Schneider, the race requires small effort and a lot of natural ability. Coach Schneider also stated that he believes that the new record will be broken again this season.
There are a lot of runners on this year’s track and field team, which, according to Schneider, means “you must be bound to find some good ones” and he most definitely has found some good runners this season. A school record has been broken and runners have already qualified for the Championships, and Schneider hopes that even more will qualify as the season progresses. Coach Schneider wishes for a good last half of the season and hopes to see improvement by the season’s end.
