The Syracuse Track Club’s Leander Boreland took third with 109 feet, 5½ inches, good for eighth on the leaderboard. The Groton Project’s Ariana Hillery again led the women with a throw of 77 feet, 7½ inches, which moved her from fifth to fourth on the leaderboard.

Volunteers

As always, FLRC track meets are the result of the efforts of numerous volunteers. Thanks to Tonya Engst for helping prepare for the meet the day before and then managing bib pickup, ably assisted by Mary Catt. Scott Weeks of the Groton Project coordinated everything with Groton High School. Dave Kania, Jesse Koennecke, Bob Talda, and Carl Franck helped with setup. Patrick Boyle did a bang-up job as starter, and Bob Talda recorded all the times as head timer, Jesse Koennecke and Dave Kania reseeded heats and produced results, and Heather Cobb and Jon Lewis coordinated the heats. Christopher Petroff counted laps and recorded bib numbers for the longer races. We had lane timing assistance from Keith Eggleston, Amy Dawson, Scott Dawson, Eugene Gonzalez, and Kim Jackson, with Ricky Stewart providing backup timing. On the field event side, Gregory Green, Tevin Smith, and Carl Franck assisted Brett Shelton with the long and triple jumps. Lizzy Rayle and Hamza Abdush-Shahid helped Steve Wagner with the high jump. Matt Scheffler managed the pole vault, and Janice Carter and Michelle VanEtten assisted Sean Shea with the throws. Laurel Gilmer sold FLRC clothing, and Lauren Milano brought muffins!

See you all in 2026 at the January Jicker!
