Bonny Eagle had two hurdlers tie school records as the Scots finished third with 81 points in a tightly contested SMAA meet last Saturday at the Portland Expo.

Thornton Academy was first with 98 points and Deering second with 82.

All boys’ and girls’ SMAA teams will compete in the Southwestern Championship meets Saturday also at the Portland Expo.

“I think we can compete with the two we ran against Saturday.” Bonny Eagle coach John Turrell said. “Scarborough is ahead of us, but second place is wide open.”

Saturday, freshman Sarah Ferry won the junior 45 hurdles in 6.9 seconds, tying the school record set by Katlyn Gardiner two years ago.

Gardiner, now a junior, tied the school record of 6.7 seconds set in 1996 while winning the Sr. 45 hurdles.

Other event winners for the Scots were Katherine Pagano (Sr. 800), Mariel VanAtta (Jr. 800) and Katie Kohler (Jr. 40), who is undefeated this season. Like Ferry, VanAtta and Kohler are freshmen.

Bonny Eagle also won the junior 840 relay.

“We have some high placers and some depth, which is why this has been the best season we’ve had in indoor in the history of the school,” Turrell said. “Our record is 13-3. Previously the best record was 9-3, which was last year.

“We have an outstanding freshman class.”

The Bonny Eagle boys’ team finished second in its meet with 84.5 points. Deering was first with 116.

Nick Winslow won the Jr. 45 hurdles with a time of 6.1 seconds, the time in the event by any athlete this season. Mao Ye (Jr. 600), Noah Schoneberg (Jr. 300) and Khamla Mickelson (Jr. 40) also won their events. Like Winslow, Mickelson’s time in the Jr. 40 was the fastest in the event this season.

Bonny Eagle also won the junior relay.

The Gorham girls were second in their meet Saturday with 80 points. Scarborough was first with 147.

Alyson Fearon (Sr. 40) and Rachel Wilkinson (Jr. 800) won events for the Rams. Gorham also won the 1640 relay.

Westbrook finished with 10 points in the meet. Samantha Peters (Sr. 800), Natasha Langway (Sr. 400) and Nicole Williams (Sr. shot put) all placed in their events.

The Gorham boys indoor track team continued its impressive season, defeating second-place Scarborough, 118.5-86. Westbrook finished with 25 points in the meet. The Rams end the regular season undefeated.

Placing first for Gorham were Justin Villacci (200), Josh Maxwell (Sr. 45 hurdles), Kyle Perkins (Sr. 600), Brown (Int. 600), Isaac Pease (Jr. 300), Tim Millett (two mile) and Andrew Nash (shot put).

Gorham also won the senior relay.
