MERRICK, NY — The Calhoun High School girls track team is conference champs for a fourth straight season. They were led by Sara Manson, who won the hurdles, long and triple jump. She scored 30 points and is currently ranked number two in Section VIII for the hurdles and top three for both long and triple jump. "Sara has a drive, focus and mentality that is unmatched," coach Joseph Migliano said. "She has been with team since her eighth-grade season and has been a huge part of our success. She has really turned herself into a true leader and role model for all the younger girls. She sets the standard for Calhoun track and field." Junior Carly Curnutt, Kate MacNamara and Kaitlyn Stibritz made it a one-two-three finish in the 3,000m run. "In a year of unknowns and uncertainties some things never seem to change; the Calhoun girls track and field team," Migliano said. The girls scored 174 points with Garden City a second-place 73 points. It is one of the largest margins of victory ever in Nassau County winter track and field.
