St. Thomas Aquinas Breaks Their Own 4x200 National Record Two Weeks In A Row!
WATCH RACE VIDEO
St. Thomas Aquinas set a national record in the girls 4x200m relay last week at the Texas Relays. So what do you do for an encore? How about re-write the record books. The group had city championships earlier this week, but their was no fatigue on Friday afternoon. The quartet of Krystal Sparling, Diamond Spaulding, Narina Jean-Baptiste, and Kendall Ellis made it no contest early on dominating with a US#1 and meet record time of 1:33.43, nearly three seconds faster than Miami Northwestern and four seconds faster than the meet record set by their counterparts 14 years ago! Northwestern's time of 1:36.41 (US#2) also broke the meet record with a foursome of Robyn Jones, Twanisha Terry, Alexis Harrell, and Timetria Mitchell. Oak Ridge was third in 1:40.84.
