Desrameaux Wins GBL Shotput Title; Sets New EHS mark

Senior Darrynn Desrameaux capped a tremendous Greater Boston League (GBL) indoor track and field season with a victory in the shot-put at last Friday’s GBL Meet, which featured athletes from all eight of the GBL schools, at the Reggie Lewis Track and Athletic Center in Boston.

Darrynn’s throw of 34’-11.25” easily outdistanced her closest competitor, Chelsea’s Kiara Ramirez, whose top toss was 31’-1.5”, a difference of almost four feet. In addition, her throw was a new school record (which Darrynn herself holds) and now ranks her eighth in Division 2 and 25th overall in the state.

Desrameaux paced the Lady Crimson Tide to a dominating performance in the shot-put event. Teammate and fellow senior Layla Betancur-Cardona (who has been battling Desrameaux for the school record throughout the season) finished in third place in the shot with a throw of 29’-8.5” and senior teammate Nicole Brandao finished fifth in the shot with a toss of 27’-5.75”.

For the versatile Brandao, the fifth-place medal in the shot-put gave her two medals on the day, the other coming thanks to her fourth-place finish in the 55 meter hurdles in a time of 10.39.

Other point-scorers for coach Jehu Cimea’s Lady Crimson Tide squad were:

—  Senior Suzanne Maharjan, who won a sixth-place medal in the 2-mile run with a time of 15:41.22;

— Senior Nicole Brandao, who took home a fourth place medal in the 55 meter hurdles with a clocking of 10.39;
