Sweeps seasonal titles for cross-country, indoor track, outdoor track and field

The Kennedy boys’ track and field team won the League III-A title on May 6 at Putnam Valley, giving our harriers a title in each of the three running seasons. The girls also had a strong showing, finishing three points behind eventual winner Croton. So since September, Kennedy is home to four of the six possible titles for League III-A (the girls also won their indoor track and field season).

Heading into the final day (May 4 was called due to rain and darkness), Kennedy had already garnered 10 first-place finishes. Dylan Schuck led a string of junior scorers for the Gaels with wins in the 400-meter dash, 400-meter hurdles and 110-meter hurdles. Quick on his heels are Kennedy’s dynamic duo of Jessica Kendzor (400-meter dash, 800-meter run) and Breeda Mannion (400-meter hurdles and 1,500-meter run). Junior Jesse Aprile, long jump; sophomore Danielle Asaro, 100-meter dash; and freshman Michael Campobasso, pole vault, rounded out the scoring for the Gaels. The Gaels also ended the day with two of the seven National Elite results: Brandon Wynne in the 2-mile run and Schuck in the javelin.
