Zia conducts three meets each year in which students compete against one another in 12 events. A pair of athletes also broke school records this season. Elliot Harrison broke a trio of records in the girls’ high jump (5’11”), bettering the previous record of 4’10” set by Joslyn Frausto in 2006, the girls’ 55-meter hurdles (8.6), breaking the 2006 record of 10.16 held by Lacee Evans, and the 200-meter dash (29.2), bettering a school record of 29.52 held since 1980 by Shellye Joy, and Erik Cueto set a new school record in the boys’ 55-meter hurdles (8.8), breaking the record of 9.32 set by Rolando Chavarria in 2005.
