Six members of the Gloucester Fisherman track and field traveled to Boston last Sunday to compete in the MSTCA Freshman-Sophomore State Championship meet.
The Fisherman girls’ 4×200 meter relay team, consisting of Maddie Goodhue, Meadow Anderson, Caitie Dewan, and Grace Castellucci, were the only athletes on the team to medal. The girls placed seventh out of 23 teams with a personal record of 1:57.41 minutes.
“The beginning of the day’s events did not go too well,” Gloucester sophomore Meadow Anderson said. “We were really happy about how the relay turned [out] and we were very excited to place and get medals”
While not medaling, there were several standouts of the meet. Seamus Linehan placed 10th in the 600 meter race, and ran his season-best of 1:31.57 minutes missing the qualifying time for states by 0.1 seconds. Linehan also competed in the long jump where he placed twelfth with a jump of 18-05 feet.

Other sophomores who competed were Rockport sophomore Caitie Dewan, who ran a personal record in the 600 meters with a time of 2:02.77 minutes. Dewan also competed in the long jump where she jumped 12-10.
