Junior Runners Leave Dover in the Dust for Second Win

Instead of track they should have called it sweep.

That’s essentially what the Long Valley Junior Wolf Pack track team did against runners from Dover at its most recent meet, sweeping all but three of the event’s 40 competitions.

Boys and girls in the 9-10, 11-12, and 13-15 age groups were completely dominant in events including the 100-meter, 200-meter, 400-meter, 800-meter, mile, and long jump.

In the 9-10 year age group Noah Turner, Gerrard Carratura, Pat Kelly, Libby Masterson, Shannon Flammer, Elize Fracchiolla, Olivia Montuoro,Rosalie, Olsen, Shannon Delguercio,Sean Krentz, Hailey Bishop, David Brown, Scott Van Woert, Jeffrey Cianfranco, Kurt Dechiaro, Suzie Steward, Mason Gough, Shannon Carratura, Jake Doerr,  Sydney St. Jacques and Trevor Hennebery  led the youngest group to a strong win.

The 11-12 group was led with the key performances of Matt Hayden, James Zeolla, Ethan Stoute, Sarah Hanoifin, Doris Migliaccio, Julianna Agnolet, Sara DatesmanLuke Doerr, Lars Olsen,Max Murata, Carly Delong, Margaret Hurley,Luke Lusskin, Derrick Jenkins, Chelsea Cochrane and Catherine Masterson.  The team out ran the very quick Dover runners with spring in their steps.

The 13-15 group was led with veterans like Hunter Booth, Chris Pollack, Luke Kelly, Aiden Tata Lobo, Sarah Daly, Ava Lusskin, Ben Girardy, Neil Macintyre, Ben Rooney, Tyler Bishop, Sarah Bhargava, Ashton Young, John Delguercio, Mitch Butynes, Tom Richardson, Steven Johnson, Catherine Hurley and Cora Gartleman.

Many of the athletes recorded personal bests against Dover as well.

The win gives the Wolf Pack its second win in as many meets, and now will prepare for its next competition against Mountain Lakes.
