HANOVER — Windham junior Matt Garafano was nipped at the wire in the 55-meter dash finals of the Division 2state meet, but he had plenty to smile about Sunday afternoon.

Garafano and senior teammate Spenser Sawyer were the big scorers as Windham rolled to the team title with 79 points, comfortably ahead of runner-up Portsmouth (53).

Not only did Garafano barely lose (6.732 to 6.738) in the dash finals but it was to senior teammate Donovan Hopkins. And he had plenty to smile about later, running on the winning 4x200 relay team as the anchor and the runner-up 4x400 relay as the leadoff man.

Hopkins, a senior, was also on the winning relay as were James Williams and Cam Burns. Williams added to his big day by placing third in the shot put with a heave of 45-5 1/4.

Sawyer, meanwhile, had a meet to remember as he blitzed the field in the 1,000 meters with a time of 2:38.58 and then finished second to Pelham standout Cam Starr in the 1,500. Starr proved that he's recovered from a cross country injury to finish in 4:14.30, three seconds ahead of Sawyer.

Sawyer came back to anchor the 4x400 relay.

Among Windham's other scorers, Luke Leonard came in second in the high jump, Robby St. Laurent was fourth in the 1,000 and Alesandro Jacobellis was fourth in the 55 hurdles.

Herrling wins high jump

Pelham senior Mia Herrling was the top local performer in the Division 2 girls meet, clearing 5-4 in the high jump to win the event by four inches.

Pelham finished in a tie for ninth, one place behind Sanborn. Souhehgan took top team honors with 67 points, two ahead of runner-up Milford.
