What a day for Lancer track.  After being runner up in 2 out of the last 3 years, the boys finally took home the Massachusetts D4 relay title for the first time in program history! With a combined effort of 18 Lancer boys, 5 school records, and 8 out of 9 relays placing for points, the boys scored 58 points, 14 points more than both Stoneham & Randolph for the victory. Top 5 state standings are as follows:

1.) NORTON - 58 
2.) STONEHAM - 44
2.) RANDOLPH - 44
4.) CARDINAL SPELLMAN - 34
