Falcon Girls Win Region Track Title

The Severna Park girls indoor track team leaned heavily on their distance runners to claim the 3A East Region team championship on February 3.

The Falcons swept the podium in all three distance races and also claimed victory in the 4x800 relay. Siena Pegues won the 800 and 1,600, while Josie Kamas came home first in the 3,200. Kamas, Harper Wallace, Lexi Fitzsimmons and Kathryn Murphy teamed up for the relay title. Alexa Holt also topped the podium, winning in the pole vault with a height of 11 feet, 2 inches.

In the 4A meet, Cooper Rivas won the boys pole vault by clearing 13 feet, while Dana Doubek claimed victory in two events, taking the girls pole vault outright (11 feet, 8 inches) and sharing the high jump with fellow Bruin Sedona Clarke (5 feet).
