Now in mid-season for winter sports, the girls’ track team is on the path towards becoming GBL champs. A win against Everett with a final score of 66-20 and a win against Somerville of 44-42 brings the team closer to acquiring the GBL title. Consistency in teamwork has allowed the team to excel this season.
To accomplish their goals of winning GBLs this year, sophomore Jasmine Gray believes that “with the progress and performance [they’ve shown] so far, [she’s] confident that [they’ll] be GBL champs.”
The team has been consistently improving since the start of the season. With a strong team relationship, sophomore Qian Ren thinks that “the girls on the team are amazing and though running isn’t an easy thing to do, it gets better when people are [motivating] and cheering you on.” Ren added that “the girls on the team as well as [their] coach [David Londino] has helped [her] improve a lot.”
With the team’s confidence in their abilities, freshman Renet Chan thinks that “since [they are] now in mid-season, everyone knows each other and [they] have each other’s back.” Chan mentioned that she has “never had a team like this before [who is so supportive] and they’re a significant part of [her] life now.”
“The season has been absolutely amazing so far and maybe that’s why it has gone by so fast,” expressed freshman Birukti Tsige. She thinks that “together as a team…[they] will all have accomplished [their goals].” Many on the team share the common goal to become faster runners such as sophomore Imane Quachyryni and freshman Ranya Boufaida. The team hopes to complete goals and make higher records for the year. The team has already experienced success in the meets they have won and look to add to their wins while also improving and fine tuning their skills.
