GORHAM—Upwards of nine SMAA schools converged on USM’s Costello Sports Complex around midday on Saturday, Feb. 2 for a huge meet, one last regular-season dustup as the championship stretch arrives. Teams from Bonny Eagle, Gorham and Windham all participated.

Among the standout performances by local athletes: Gorham freshman Andrew Farr annihilated his competition in the boys junior division 200, besting second-place finisher Josh Sewall of TA by more than two seconds. Farr likewise turned in a superb time in the junior 400, where he led No. 2 finisher Sam Kovacs of Bonny Eagle by more than four and half seconds. Farr’s 200 number was better than the winning number in the same event in the senior division, and his 400 number would’ve had him second among the older boys.

Farr isn’t quite setting Conference records yet – but he could start at any moment.

“Andrew has been having a great season,” said Gorham boys head coach Jason Tanguay. “He leads the league in the junior 55, 200 and 400. Andrew is also one of the hardest workers and very much a student of the sport. I am looking forward to how the postseason will unfold for him.”

Over on the girls’ side of things, Gorhamite Kate Tugman turned in outstanding times as well, finishing two and a half seconds ahead of her nearest opponent, Windham’s Morgan Colangelo, in the senior division 400 and more than 1:16 ahead of her nearest opponent, Bonny Eagler Amelia Alexander, in the open division Two Mile.
