On Tuesday, May 11th, the Titans competed in their second CSL Triangular, hosting the New Trier Trevians and the Maine East Blue Demons in the John Davis Titan Stadium. Due to a COVID-related scheduling issue, our girl's team also competed at GBS, running against Maine South. With hundreds of athletes between the 5 programs present, the meet, which started at 4:30 pm, finally came to an end at 8:45 pm. It was awesome to see the team competing under the stadium light, cheering each other on up until the very end of the 4x400m relay. It's great to compete again!

To start off the evening, our 4x800 teams went out and competed well. Our fastest 4x8 team was our frosh/soph team, consisting of Andy Ordway (FR), Sanjeev Gorla (SO), Jeferson Wei (FR), and James Hiltebrand (SO). All four ran quite well, finishing with a time of 9:14.

Michael Jerva (JR) led the Titans in the 3200m, winning the event handily with a time of 10:39. Behind him were Jack Callaghan (JR) and Isaac Abraham (JR) who, after running the race side by side, finished in times of 12:16 and 12:17 respectively.

In the 800m, team captain and sprinter George Dornan (SR) chose to join Titan Distance for the evening, departing from his usual 400m. He finished in third with a time of 2:09.8, just behind a runner from New Trier. Michael Westfall (JR), who came in first, finished with a time of 2:08.5. And let's not forget James Hiltebrand, who ran a stellar 2:15 in the open 800 shortly after running in the 4x800m.

In the 400m, the sole Titan Distance runner was Will Patton (JR) who ran a 1:05.5, a PR. Congrats, Will!

Next up was the 1600m run, with 13 Titan Distance runners competing. In the frosh-soph heat, Andy Ordway took the win with a fresh PR of 5:07.2. Behind him was Jeferson Wei, who also PRed at 5:16.4. Great job, boys! In the open heat, Jayson Stamm (JR) won the event by 4 seconds, finishing ahead of New Trier with a time of 4:53.2.

Finally, at 8:45 pm, the meet finished under the lights with the 4x400m relay. Elie Nassif (JR) finished with the fastest split of the night, running a 57 second 400.

It was a great night of racing, and we're glad that we could host such great competition. Congrats to all who competed!
