Results from the Cambridge meet held on Wednesday, May 2, at Danehy Park are as follows:

Nicole Genard took first place in the 100m hurdles with a time of 15.8, and also placed first in the long jump with a distance of 16’8. She also took first in the javelin throw with a 120’0.

The 200 was won by Gelynne Berger, finishing in 26.8.

Melissa Baptista took top spot in the high jump at 4’6.

In the triple jump, Michel-le Meranda placed first with a 30’8.

The victory earned the girls the GBL Championship, which was their fifth outdoor title in a row. The seniors will graduate having lost only one meet in four years of indoor and outdoor track, which would be 31-1 record.  

“This was a very intense meet,” said Coach Charles O’Roarke. “We did very well early in the meet, sweeping the javelin, triple jump and long jump. But Cambridge dominated in the running events, bringing them back and making the meet a tossup before the last running event, the 200m. Gelynne Berger ran the race of her career and came from behind to win the 200m with a personal best time of 26.8, which gave us the victory.  It was a great meet and the girls bounced back to beat the team that had defeated them indoors. This was definitely a win to remember. I am very happy for the seniors who will graduate having reclaimed the GBL title.”
