This past week the New Castle Hurricane track team ran at the WPIAL Championship at Slippery Rock University. The team made out well at this year´s WPIAL meet.

The boys 4×800 relay team, consisting of D’Angelo Patxot, Ryan Hunyadi, Jonah Miller, and Gavyn Hansotte. The team performed exceptionally well. The team usually has Andre Corbin and Anthony Litrenta, but they had their own events going on that day. Anthony ran very well at the race, placing 6th overall in his race, Senior Devin Sams also placed 6th in his race for the 110-meter hurdles.

For the girls, freshman, Maria Owens, had a fantastic performance at the meet. Maria placed 1st in her jumping event at the WPIAL meet, despite her only being a freshman. Maria will now compete in the state championship race very soon.
