JOHNSON CITY – Last Thursday, May 19, the Norwich Purple Tornado boys and girls track and field team traveled to Johnson City High School for the annual Southern Tier Athletic Conference (STAC) Championship. This championship is a showcase of the best talent in the track and field arena in the conference.
As a team, Norwich's boys and girls team did not fair as well as they did at an individual level. Binghamton high school boys cruised to a crushing win over all of their opponents scoring 131-points as a team; while the Corning girls did the same to their opponents, claiming the team win with 126-points. Despite not cracking the top five in points as a team in either boys or girls, the Tornado boys claimed a respectable seventh place finish out of seventeen with 34-points. The Tornado girls claimed a fifteenth place finish with 8-points.
The individual level of the sport saw a slew of personal bests for athletes all across the board with a numerous amount of personal season records going to the Norwich athletes.
