The girls Bees had 70 points, just behind the hosts from C-NS, who won with 82 points. On the boys side, it was just the same,  as B’ville’s 56 points topped everyone in the 14-team field except the Northstars, who won with 99 points.

Adrianna Straughter set the tone for the B’ville girls, winning the individual 100-meter hurdles in 17.15 seconds and, with Abigail Scherfling, taking the team event with 36.22 seconds to 36.61 for runner-up Corcoran. In the high jump, Straughter cleared 4 feet 8 inches as she and Karen Ekure were second (8’10”) behind Corcoran’s winning 9’6”.

Then Straughter, Ekure, Jordyn Boutilier and Emily Paul won the 4×100 relay in 53 seconds flat as no one else broke the 54-second mark. Mackenzie Wodka won the 400-meter hurdles in 1:15.65 as she and Mackenzie Randolph (2:40.98) were just behind C-NS (2:40.89) for the top spot.

Tyler Luciano, Greg Porceng, Kieran Sheridan and Michael Lawrence won the 4×400, going 3:33.20 to pull away from C-NS (3:42.73) and the field.
