TRACK & FIELD
Brother Jerome Invitational
The 2017 Brother Jerome Invitational started off great for the SBA Panthers. The home team had a great showing of their track & field abilities. The morning started off with one of our many talented freshman, Kambi Walker taking 2nd place in the high jump. The 4x100 meter relay that consisted of Kambi Walker, Sophia Mahoney, Erin Gilsenan, and Sophia Barnett was next, where they battled some AACA power house track teams from the surrounding area to take the win. The 4x800 meter relay of Cara Hughes, Marissa Ryan, Tess White, and Ceceila Verillo fought hard to take 4th place. The action continued over at the Javelin where Junior, Erin Gilsenan took 2nd place. Over at the long jump & triple jump event were two familiar faces: Sophia Barnett taking second place in the Long jump as well as 2nd place in the triple jump and Sophia Mahoney finishing 3rd place in the triple jump right behind her teammate. The SBA Panthers wrapped up the events on the track with another freshman standout, Taylor Thomas finishing 4th place in the mile and Sophia Barnett taking 2nd place in the 100 meter hurdles. Congrats. ladies!!!
