Primetime 585 Spotlight Team: Williamson girls track and field
WILLIAMSON, N.Y. (WROC) — The Primetime Spotlight team of the week is the Williamson Girls track and field team.
The girls won their fourth consecutive sectional championship in class B3 by an incredible 62 points.
'They all contributed,' head coach Carl Comstock said. 'It starts in November and it goes all the way through. And everybody did what they needed to do. It's not a one-person thing. It's a 30 girl thing.'
Madison Nuessle is one of the few seniors who have been a part of all four sectional championships. There's a good chance there will be five in a row because more than a third of the Marauders are juniors.
'It's amazing,' Nuessle said. 'I wish I could say they're not going to do it again next year without me, but they will. These juniors are crazy. I'm just glad I got to be a part of it every year. It's so nice just to be part of this little family.'
Williamson dominated the 1,500 race walk by placing 1-4, earning the team 31 points alone in the race, with Faith Atwater winning with a time of 8:40.92
Williamson also has Hannah Governor, a three-time News 8 Primetime Elite Award winner who won the 1500 with a time of 5:06.50. The second-place runner was 34 seconds behind her!! Hannah also won the 3000 by 37 seconds and added another first-place finish in the 1,000 meters.
Hannah's older sister Alexa was also an accomplished Section Five distance runner. That last name has become a target on the Williamson junior's back.
'There is some pressure because I know people are trying to race me in everything,' Governor said. 'It feels good because I definitely worked for it. My coaches are really supportive of everything.'
The Marauders won the 4×200 and the 4×400 relays. In the field events, Madyson Storey easily won the high jump to earn another 10 points for her team.
Congratulations to Coach Comstock and the Williamson girls varsity track and field team for earning the Class B3 Sectional Championship and the Spotlight Team of the Week!
