Over the course of a snowy two-day meet, the Delbarton Winter Track and Field team battled to a 5th place finish at the NJISAA Prep A State Championships at Lawrenceville School. 

Senior Peter Donini (Michigan) led the charge once again with a dominant victory in the shot put to claim the Prep State Title.  Senior Antonio Conte scored with a sixth place finish as well.  In the pole vault, junior Alex Makovsky continued to perform at a high level, securing second place at the championships.  Junior Dever Hanlon cleared a new personal best of 9'6 to secure fourth place. 

Sophomore Hans Clovis raced to a fourth place finish in the 400m in 53.03, while sophomore Joshua Akakpo placed fifth in the 800m in a season best 2:04.43.

The 4x400m team of Clovis, Akakpo, sophomore Wilson Paes, and junior Dillon Byrne closed out the meet with a fifth place finish to round out the scoring.  Additional Green Wave athletes raced to season and personal bests.
