The William Floyd boys' and girls' varsity 4x400 meter relay teams went back to back this week.
Both of the teams set new school records at the New York State Championship qualifying meets. The boys' team of Terrell Collum, Isaiah Taylor, Tyri Hubbard and Matteo Higueros, set the standard first with a time of 3:26.04 seconds. With that mark they easily beat the previous mark set in 2021. Their time was more than two seconds slower and they are the new record holders.
Not to be outdone, the next day, the girls' team of Brianna Smith, Angelle Sainteus, Destiny Samuels and Zariel Macchia ran a 4:05.37, setting a new record of their own. They even one upped the boys' team by shattering the previous record set in 2012 by more than two-and-a-half seconds.
