Fourth Formers Fly

In their first official outing of the season, the top six Martlet runners headed to the Canterbury Invitational and put forth an outstanding effort. Five of the six harriers are Fourth Formers, three of whom are new to Westminster and competitive high school running. The team's seventh place (out of 12) finish was one of the best results at this race for the black and gold in many years. The top five runners were under 25 minutes, and all of the girls ran significantly faster than last week. Leading the way for Westminster was Annabelle Smith '21, earning 10th place overall. Running for her second year, Smith destroyed her personal best by almost 50 seconds, finishing in 20:29. Newcomer Miranda Douglass '21 looked great in only her second race, finishing in the top 20. Douglass cut two and a half minutes off of her time from last week. Olivia Goldstuck '21 also looked awesome shaving two minutes from her Choate finish. The third newbie on the squad, Aleyna Baki '21, also ran two minutes faster than last week. Rounding out the top five was veteran runner Maggie Chaves '19 who beat her time from last year's race as well as last week's. This group shows great potential, and it is going to be exciting to watch them develop as runners. Next week they get to compete for the first time on their home course in the RMI.
