The indoor track team traveled to Lynchburg on Jan. 11-12 for the Suffolk Stars Indoor Invitational.

The girls’ team took sixth place out of the 31 teams present, while the boy’s took 31st.  Track runners set 28 personal records (PRs), with four relay teams setting their best times in the season.

The 4 x 800 relay team with senior Charlotte Sheridan, sophomore Haley Stumvoll, sophomore Katrina Junta and junior Grace Zeng took third place. Individually, Zeng took second in the 3200 meter run, Sheridan took second in the 1000 run and senior Lizzy Miranda took third in the pole vault.

“It was a fun trip, and many people PR’ed even though the facility was not the best,” senior Peter Price said.

The indoor track team will travel to Nokesville on Jan. 19 for the Winter Jacket Classic.
