He now ranks as the number 3 discus thrower in Somers history and has the best junior year throw ever. He is chasing Billy Wortner's school record of 150' 3" which was set at the Red Raider Relays.

James Cascio placed sixth for a medal in the pentathalon at the Red Raider Relays with 2465 points, just 2 points out of 5th and just 23 points off of 4th place. Cascio hurdled 17.22 and threw the shot 35' 9 1/2". He ran the 1500 in 5:05.02 after going out in 69 for the first 400.

Boys 4x800 tunes up for Penn Relays with 8:13.12 2nd place finish

A day after racing each other down the home stretch to place 1-2 in the 2nd section of the 1600m at The Red Raider Relays (Tunas 4:33.57, Licursi 4:33.59), seniors Frankie Licursi and Albert Tunas ran the first two legs of the 4x800m relay that placed 2nd in 8:13.12.

With a strong wind blowing Licursi led off with his first sub 2:01 split ever, clocking 2:00.8.  Tunas also handed off in first as he split 2:01.5.

Sophomore Scott Friedman led the whole way as well and handed off to Isaac Shelby after his 2:04.0 carry.
Shelby went out very fast, hitting the first 400m in 58.5, the fastest split of the foursome.  He hung strong with Kellenberg through 600m but tied up down the home stretch to finish in 2:06.5.

The same four Tuskers will toe the line this Friday in front of over 20,000 fans at The Penn Relays in Philadelphia, PA.  They qualified by running 8:09.01 at the indoor national championships.

GROTON RUNS 2:09 - running his first 800m ever. senior Jon Groton split 2:09 at The Ossining Relays after running the 4x1 and 4x2 relays.  Groton, known for his 200's and 400's more than anything else, actually ran 7 seconds faster than Tunas did his first time running 800m.
