Fifty schools participated Thursday, May 21, in Suffern's annual Mountie Madness track and field invitational, which served as a reminder Section 1 doesn't have a patent on talent. It's not that area athletes were shut out of gold medals. The meet, for instance, ended with host Suffern winning the girls 4x400-meter relay and Section 1 athletes recorded 15 first-place finishes. But three of four relays went to non-Section 1 teams and some of the meet's biggest moments — a 5-9 girls high jump and 19-4.5 girls long jump, included — also belonged to athletes from outside the immediate area. Still, Mountie Madness proved huge for some locals. 🔗: See photos and the story at our lohudsports link in bio. 📹️📸: John Meore jmeorephoto / The Journal News/lohud.com ✍: Nancy Haggerty nancyhaggertysportsreporter / The Journal News/lohud.com #lohudSports #lohudTrack #TrackandField #HighSchoolTrackandField #MountieMadness
