Port Jefferson Duo Takes Home Some Championship Gold


Alexa Jacobs | Section XI - Suffolk County Athletics | Facebook

Port Jefferson now has two champions after the Suffolk County Small School Indoor Track and Field Championships last week. 

Alexa Jacobs set the new Section XI record in the 55-meter with a time of 7.04 at the League Championships last month. She then followed that up with a dominating performance at the Suffolk Small School Championships. For the second year in a row, Alexa repeated as champion in the 55 meter. She not only topped her previous best time of 7.04, but set a new personal record at 7.02 seconds. That also now sets the new Section XI record. She also won the 300 meter with a time of 41.94.

Port Jeff wasn't done there as Evan Monaghan took home the title in the 55-meter hurdles at the Suffolk Boys Small School Indoor Track and Field Championships. Monaghan now has been the small school county champion in this event for the second year in a row.
