TRACK AND FIELD — Haldane is sending two athletes to the Class C state finals today (June 13) at Middletown after Owen Powers qualified to represent Section I in the 1,600 meters and Shayla Ochoa in the pentathlon.

In the qualifiers last week at Lagrangeville, Powers finished first in Class C and second overall with a personal best of 4:25.05, while Ochoa won the Class C event at Hendrick Hudson High School with 2,174 points. Other top finishers at Lagrangeville were Merrick Williams in the 110-meter hurdles (second in 17.58); Rhys Williams in the long jump (fourth with 18-5); Silas Emig in the high jump (fourth, at 5-8); and Gavin Mahoney in the triple jump (fifth, with 36-7.25). The boys’ team also finished second in the 4×400 relay (3:42.27).

SOFTBALL — Section I coaches named their all-star teams last week, including Callie Sniffen, who was named to the Diamond Nine Plus One team of seniors who were selected based on grade-point average, years of playing softball, awards and extracurricular activities. Lainey Donaghy and Sniffen received honorable mentions on the sectional all-star team and Allegra Clementson was named pitcher of the year for League 3-D.
