SM East girls field impressive relay teams

Kansas City Star  4/22/09

Terez A. Paylor 

Entering the season, the strength of SM East's girls track team was considered to be its relays, something that was reinforced last week a the Kansas Relays.  Maddy Rich, Hanna Jane Stradinger, Mallory Kirby, Hannah Satterlee and Allie Marquis teamed up to help the Lancers finish second in 3200 relay, third in the distance medley relay and forth in the 1,600 relay.  SM east also won the Kansas Cup, which goes to the most outstanding Kansas high school girls relay team.  

"It's a definitely honor, something they were not expecting," said SM East coach Brie Meschke.
Meschke also siad they have plenty of motivation to win.  
"Last year, it was all about the boys' team, which finished second at (6A) state and had three D-1 athletes," Meschke said.  "I think the girls got sick of hearing about the boys last year, so they think it's their time to shine."
