OTEGO – Facing a strong amount of head wind, all runners at the Oneonta Yellowjacket Invitational saw some slower times Friday than they are used to this season. That still didn’t stop the team members from Unadilla Valley, Bainbridge-Guilford and Norwich from doing what they do best – winning.

Since the meet was at Unatego High School because of construction at the track at Oneonta, no facility records were broken at the meet.

Sweeping the events she participated in was Unadilla Valley’s Julia Oglesby. Winning the high jump at 4 feet-10 inches, Oglesby decided to keep jumping to see the highest height she could reach.

Oglesby finished at a height of 5 feet-2 inches, tying her height at the REK Invite.

On the track, the speedster placed at the top of the podium in both the 100 and 200 meter dash. Oglesby’s times in the events were a 12.87 seconds in the 100 meter and a 27.19 in the 200. She has qualified for the state championship meet in June for all of her events.

Norwich’s Riley Marsh finished behind Oglesby in second place for the 100 meter event. Marsh also competed against her as part of the field in 200 meter dash. With Marsh’s time of 28.41, she nabbed the fourth place spot, grabbing team points for the Purple Tornado.

Zamira Caldwell of Bainbridge-Guilford also competed in both events. She crossed the finish line in 14.18 seconds in the 100 meter dash, snagging a point for her team points total and the final spot on the podium.

The Tornado’s Hailey Colabelli continued her winning streak in the 400 meter dash, placing first with a time of 1:02.26. Colabelli’s time was over a second faster than any other racer in the girls field.

Greene’s Madison Rice crossed the finish line at the sixth racer, picking up a team point for the Trojans. She was part of the Greene team that placed fourth in the sprint medley relay. Rice teamed up with Haley DeJager, Brooke Austin, and Chloe Parks for the 100 meter, 200 meter, and 400 meter legs of the event and displayed a time of 2:05.88.

The team of Katie Gawronski, Caroline Stewart, Marsh and Colabelli took the top prize in the sprinters medley relay with a time of 1:57.11.

In the hurdling events, Gawronski placed third in the 100 meter hurdles and first in the 400 meter hurdles. Gawronski’s time of 17.43 nearly beat out her personal best she set for herself at the REK meet one week prior.

Also in the field for the 100 meter hurdles was the UV Storm’s Kyleigh George. George placed sixth in the event but with a time of 17.96. All top six girls who placed on the podium in the event were separated by less than a second.

Nicole Jeffrey yet again took home first place finishes in the 800 and the 1500 meter races. Jeffrey has been dominating the distance races all season long at all dual meets and most of the invitational events this season. Running a 2:29.10 in the 800 and a 5:31 in the 1500, she finished at least four seconds fast than second place in both races.

Kate Roefs of the B-G Bobcats scooped up the last point for the 1500 meter event, placing sixth in the event with a time of 6:19.12.
