Girls Track

    Diane O’Donnell, who coaches East Hampton High School’s girls track team, said this week that Ashley West is to compete in the 200 and 400-meter races at the division meet at Bellport High School Tuesday, as well as with the 4-by-100 and 4-by-400 relay teams.

    O’Donnell and her assistant, Shani Cuesta, have also proposed that the following be taken into the division meet as well: Hannah Jacobs (discus), Saoirse McKeon (shot-put), Cole Brauer (3,000), Vanessa Cruz (3,000), Lena Vergnes (racewalk), Sedona Brosse (high jump), Charlotte Wiltshire (high jump), Amanda Calabrese (100), and Morgan German (400 hurdles). “We expect to take at least 18 girls to the divisions,” O’Donnell said.
