It started when 8th grader Allison Hunt broke team mate Gabby Gehr's record of 13.3.  Allison shaved a tenth of a second off the previous record, lowering it to 13.2 and picked up a first place finish along the way.

Two events after, Mickey Molchany ran victorious in the mile breaking Givi Palagashvilli's 2004 record of 5:10 with a second place finish, and a new record of 5:09.  Keeping up with this "fast track" the girls 4x100 relay of Jenna Miller, Megan Bramble, Hunt, and Gehr ran to a new school record of 55.9.
