MSTCA Girls Coaches Invitational 2013

  This past weekend had some memorable performances by Massachusetts athletes throughout the Northeast.  For many years the Coaches Invitational was the premier event of the season as runners test their mid-season conditioning against the best in the State. Now our May schedule has given our athletes more options with meets like the Andover Boosters Meet ,The Glenn D. Loucks Games, and the New Balance Twilight Series.These meets have slightly downsized the Coaches Meet but we still had plenty of fine performances across the board.

SOMERVILLE — Brockton’s Patricia Montiero was the day’s only double winner, placing first in 100-meter hurdles and long jump, Saturday afternoon at the Girls’ State Coaches Invitational at Dilboy Stadium. In the hurdles, Montiero finished in 15.16 seconds, 0.17 seconds faster than Annalisa Debari of Melrose.

  Personal bests ruled the day at the State Coaches Invitational girls meet yesterday at Dilboy Stadium in Somerville.   The meet, which drew more than 30 teams including some from as far out as Williamstown, kicked off the last lap of the season in style, as many teams showed that they are at the top of their game. Austin Prep’s Elizabeth Lombardo surprised many with a masterful win in the mile, after coming into the day a fourth seed. Her victorious time of 5:16.10 was not only the fastest in her heat by at least 10 seconds, she ran seven seconds faster than second place finisher Meghan Grela of Ursuline.
