Members of the Berkshire Thunder Track Club attended the New England Indoor Championships at the Track at New Balance in Boston last weekend.
The Thunder placed seventh overall in the high school division in their first year competing as an indoor track club. According to coach Al Najimy, Berkshire had one of the smaller of the 25 teams entered from across New England. Berkshire County high schools do not participate in indoor track and field.
The local contingent featured Andrew Petropulos, Mason Sayers, Max Adam, Ben Harwood, Andy McCormack, Seth Aitken, Emmett Johnson, Rafael Mellow-Bartels, Katherine Goss and Jayne Beringer.
