SYRACUSE – For its 2025 debut, the Cazenovia indoor track and field teams both hit a new peak during last Saturday’s morning session of the John Arcaro Memorial at SRC Arena. Having seen the George Constantino Memorial postponed on Jan. 4 due to winter weather, Cazenovia was competing for the first time in the new year after strong December efforts in the Jack Morse and Oscar B. Jensen meets. Each Lakers side claimed team championships, with the Cazenovia boys earning 94 points to pull away from second-placed South Jefferson’s total of 64 points. Twice, Cazenovia won relays. In the 4×400 the quartet of Eliot Comeau, Finn Worthington, Basil Sayer and Alex Dolly went three minutes 44.92 seconds, a quick time since none of its challengers even broke the four-minute mark. Later in the meet it was Jake Woolbert, Tristan Field-Bradley, Caleb Gilmore and Owen Woodworth topping the field in the 4×800 by posting 9:01.73, more than half a minute clear of South Jefferson (9:38.46) and the field. Gilmore won on his own, going 1:31.08 to take the 600-meter run over the 1:33.23 of Fulton’s Mason Kinney. Woolbert finished second in the 1,600-meter run in 4:49.18 to the 4:46.08 of Onondaga/LaFayette’s Emmanuel LaMacchia. Adding his own runner-up finish in the 55-meter hurdles Braden Carnahan saw his time of 8.60 seconds runner-up to PSLA Fowler’s Siyir Price who won in 8.19. Comeau cleared 5 feet 10 inches in the high jump to get second place as Fowler’s Damereon Gary won topping 6 feet. Not to be left out, Cazenovia’s girls indoor track team, led by Susie Pittman, picked up 98 points, emerging with its own victory as, again, South Jefferson (78) settled for second place. Pittman again ruled in the pole vault clearing 10 feet as teammate Tara Pratt got second place with 7 feet,while in the 300-meter dash Pittman’s 44.29 seconds trailed only the 43.27 of South Jefferson’s Lillian Cota. And in the 4×400 relay Pittman joined Nora Berg, Avery Cashatt and Izzy Stromer-Galley to win in 4:21.22 well clear of Liverpool’s 4:39.65 in second place. Lily Kogut went 11:34.67 in the 3,000-meter run for second place just ahead of teammate Abbie Comeau’s second-place 11:35.77. Olivia Ruddy finished third in the 1,000-meter run in 3:27.97, with Nora Berg third in the 600 in 1:50.98.
