On Saturday June 10, three Acton-Boxborough Outdoor Track relay teams competed in the New England championship meet at Norwell High School.

All three A-B relay teams medaled at New Englands, finishing within the top six in their events. To qualify for the New England Championship, the relay teams finished within the top six at the Massachusetts All-State meet on June 3.

The girls 4x400 meter relay team (Sara Mitchell, Alex Saganich, Samantha Friborg, and Samantha Cannarozzi) placed third with a time of 3:58.84, behind Ridgefield Connecticut and Westerly Rhode Island.

Coach Kenneth Feit said, The girls were outstanding. They were focused and determined. It was also an excellent way to compete the season, and for seniors Sara Mitchell and Sam Cannarozzi to finish their high school careers. So proud of all of them.

The boys 4x400 relay team of seniors Matt Antes, Brendan Flaherty, Ben Rubin, and Colin Grip, placed fifth at 3:21.07.

Coach Brian Crossman said, They just missed the 6-year-old school record by an agonizing one hundredth of a second. The boys 4x800 relay (seniors Patrick Nero and Jack Culhane, sophomore Gabe Lundy, and junior Jack Gardiner) placed sixth with a time of 8:00.36.
