Yani Cuesta, who coaches East Hampton’s girls winter track team, reported Sunday that the 4-by-800 relay team of Dylan Cashin, Ryleigh O’Donnell, Sara O’Brien, and Greylynn Geyer broke their own record in that event at the Millrose Games Trials at the 168th Street Armory in New York City, that the distance medley relay team of O’Donnell, Melina Sarlo, Guyer, and Cashin had done the same in winning that race at the Zeitler Relays at Suffolk Community College-Brentwood, and that O’Donnell too had bettered her record in the 600-meter race at the Stanner Games at the Armory.
The new marks are 9 minutes and 49.45 seconds for the 4-by-800 team, 13:00.6 for the distance medley team, and 1:37.96 for O’Donnell in the 600.
“Another great week in the books,” said Cuesta, who also in her Zeitler Relays report cited Sarlo’s shot-put heave of 31 feet 4 inches, good for third place in individual competition and just five and a half inches shy of the school record; the second-place finish of the sprint medley relay team (Laura Martinez, Sophia Figueroa, Sam Ruano, and O’Brien); the fourth-place finish of the 4-by-200 relay team (O’Brien, Vicky Chen, Ali Munoz, and Martinez); the fourth-place finish of the 4-by-400 relay team (Bennett Greene, Lily Remy, Munoz, and Guyer); Ruano and Chen’s fifth-place finish in the triple jump relay, and Cashin’s personal-best 10:57.67, good for fifth, in the 3,000-meter race.
