Salem's girls track-and-field team run over by stampeding Mustangs


May 5, 2010, 8:15 p.m.

  Salem's girls track-and-field team fell into a 35-10  hole after the field events and never recovered  Tuesday afternoon, falling 97-40 to host Northville.

  "I'm a little disappointed, but Northville ran probably the best meet its run all year," said Salem coach Dale Maskill. "Our fitness is good; we're  just a little fatigue. I expect to see a huge drop in our times over the next couple of weeks."

  Despite the lopsided loss, Maskill said there were several bright spots, most notably the performance of freshman sprinter Khyli Ray, who won the 100- and 200-meter dashes.

  "Khyli is really taking to the training well and working hard in practice," said Maskill. "She just got spikes last week and it's really seemed to make a difference in her performance."

  Maskill also praised the effort of Adrianna Beltran, a sophomore who  finished second in the 400, knocking a second off her previous personal-best time.
