The Falcons had a strong showing once again in Saturday’s hay bale meet at Nottingham Park in Houston.
The Lady Falcons had a phenomenal performance—placing 3rd in a closely contested race — missing 1st place by only 7 points. Four Falcons placed in the top-20 finishers in a competitive field of over 60 runners. Ashlyn Miller was 5th, Annie Perry 8th, Grace Delahoussaye 16th, and Mary Maggio 20th. Annie, Grace, Mary, and Juanita Boada each had all-time personal best times for the 5k distance.
The Men’s team also performed well as Thomas Langley medaled with a 9th place finish out of the 120-person field. Jack Miggins, Andrew Langley, Lucas Rivera, Dustyn Bedia, Collin Dufrene, Paul Eisterhold, and Fede Celis earned all-time personal best times over a challenging 5k course that included 7 hay bale jumps.
Coach Ralph Maddalena is pleased with the continued growth of his runners, "I continue to be impressed by the toughness of our team. The jumps on the course today added to the degree of difficulty of the race. The kids rose to the challenge and almost every one of our runners achieved their personal best time. "
After many great races this weekend, the Falcons are eagerly preparing for their meet next weekend at the Walker County Fairgrounds in Huntsville.
