From the Boston Globe:<\/p>\n

The Newton North girls started on the track and did their best in the final running event. The 4 x 400 relay team of sophomores Meghan Belleraje, Madison Nadeau, and Carla Forbes, and senior Margo Gillis set a meet record with a time of 3:59.61.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt meant a lot finishing off the running events with a win,\u2019\u2019 said coach Joe Tranchita. \u201cAnd to get a meet record really boosts the morale even more.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

The Tigers also won the long jump, triple jump<\/strong>, discus, 4 x 100 hurdles<\/strong>, and 1,600 sprint medley, finishing with 73 points. Andover came in second with 60 points, and Weymouth finished third with 39.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had 37 points running and 36 in the field,\u2019\u2019 said Tranchita. \u201cI always say this is the purest team meet and that type of balance really shows that.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Senior Amy Ren came back from an ankle injury to help boost the Tigers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had been out for three meets and I just wanted to go out there and be a part of the team,\u2019\u2019 said Ren, a part of three winning teams \u2014 the long jump, triple jump, and the hurdles.<\/p>\n

Ren, who will run at Dartmouth next year, said getting over the pain in her ankle was a mental thing. \u201cThe ambition to do well trumps the pain,\u2019\u2019 she said.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
