Welcome to Patch's snapshot of sports in Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow.
From Jason Edwards, Athletics Director at Hackley comes this exciting post:
Hackley Wins!
Hackley's Boys' and Girls' Swim Teams walked away winners from Monday's Ivy League Championship meet at Lehman College. While Hackley has a long history of swimming success, earning many championships through the years, this is the first time both the boys' and girls' teams have secured first place team finishes in the same year. The boys' team went undefeated this season, with the girls' team bringing in an almost-perfect season with just one loss.
The boys' team finished with 369 points, ahead of second place Horace Mann (328 points) and third place Trinity (323.5 points). The girls' team finished with 347 points, ahead of Trinity (206.5 points) and Riverdale (304.5 points). At the meet, Kiersten Chu '15 set a new league and school record in the 100 m backstroke (time: 57.48).
Congratualations to all members of Hackley's swimming program, as well as coaches John Gillard, Anne Budlong and Jessica Spates.
