One last day in the miserable rain this spring. It has been
a remarkable run of lousy weather, literally every weekend for the past six
weekends – perhaps none worse than Sunday’s spitting, freezing, windy rain.
Incredible for May 12. Didn’t dampen a historic weekend for our team. Here are
the highlights:
--This was the greatest team performance in school history
at an ECAC Championships, as the women placed a program-best 12th
place with a program-best 22 points. Amazing!
--We had three medalists: Gianna Tedeschi, second in 5km,
second fastest time in school history, personal-best time by 14 seconds (see
previous posts); Hayley Collins, second in 10km; Debbie Boerke, fifth in 400
hurdles in final race of her collegiate career, during the peak of the terrible
weather on Sunday afternoon.
--For the men, the meet marked the end to the great careers
of seniors Mike Kennedy, Drew Burns and Brian Henderson, all of whom qualified
for this meet for the past three years. We will miss these men greatly and will remember their contributions on and off the track forever.
Rainy relay pictures are courtesy of Kathy Gaye, who ended
her long career as Marist Track Mom (fittingly on Mother’s Day). She will
always be part of our family and we will miss seeing her at meets. Note one of the pics you can see Chuck holding the Fox Umbrella. Picture of
our ECAC medalists comes from a surprising source: Assistant coach Terry
Horton, who like me is not known for his adroit cell phone skills. As we like
to say, sometimes the blind mouse finds the cheese.
Below are the complete results from the weekend, along with
official meet splits from pctiming.com. And with that, the 2018-2019 journey –
a long, soggy slog of three seasons of what seemed like mostly bad weather, but
with enough highlights to fill a lifetime – comes to an end.
