On a perfect mid-April evening, Chenango Forks Track and Field, sponsored by the Nimmonsburg Rotarians, hosted the Fourth Annual Rotary Relays! There were an amazing SIX Stadium Records set this evening! Our Boys 4 by 1 Meter Relay Team tied the School Record and ran the fastest time in Class C in the entire State of New York!

Nate Raab set the School Record in the 100 Meter Dash with a time of 10.7 seconds, shattering the previous record by more than half a second! He also led the way by winning three other individual events as the boys shut out Seton Catholic Central.

Our girls got our second straight Divisional win, crushing Seton Catholic Central. In a true team effort, every single girl that participated in the meet scored at least one point!

On an absolutely miserable, rainy, dreary, cold, windy afternoon, with portions of the track under an inch of water, and many events canceled for safety reasons, Chenango Forks Track and Field had ourselves a pretty good day!

Seniors Lauren Paske and Nate Raab led the way by winning the Discus and Long Jump respectfully (with Lauren also finishing third in Shot)!

Alyssa Denton got two firsts and a second, and our throwers (led by Lauren Paske) swept the Shot and got first and third in the Discus as our girls beat Owego and have now won 23 our of our last 24 Dual Meets.

Mark Harkness and Nate Raab each set School Records as our Boys got off to an amazing start versus Owego.

For the second year in a row our High School Chenango Forks Running Club brought a group of elementary athletes to compete in the Finger Lakes Running Club Indoor Meet at Cornell University at the famous track at Barton Hall.

Lauren Paske became the first Thrower in School History to make the Indoor State Championships. She finished 14th in the entire state! Meanwhile our Boys 1600 Meter Relay Team consisting of Nate Raab, Sam Paske, Jacob Clutz, and Zephan Tompkins (our first Relay Team in School History to make the State Meet), finished 15th in the state.

Two School Records were set and our first Thrower in Indoor History, along with our First Relay Team in Indoor History are heading to the State Meet in Staten Island!!!

Ceci Kasmarcik led the way by setting our School Record in the 1000 Meter Run while also anchoring our 4 by 800 Meter Relay Team’s third overall finish. On the boys side, our 4 by 4 Team finished SECOND overall!! Great Job and good luck at State Quals!

Another absolutely impressive day was turned in by our C-FIT Blue Devils. Eight individuals or Relay Teams placed, three finished first overall, and THREE SCHOOL RECORDS were set! Lauren Paske set the School Record in winning the Shot Put, Jacob Clutz set the School Record in the 500, and the Relay Team of Clutz, Nate Raab, Sam Paske, and Zephen Tompkins placed first and set the School Record in the Sprint Medley!

On a frigid night at Ithaca College, our C-FIT women turned in some outstanding performances led by seniors Riley Spalik and Alyssa Denton, and freshmen Aubrey McMullen, Clara Little, and Ceci Kasmarcik.

Our C-FIT (Chenango Forks Indoor Track) team had their best meet of the year last night at the Twilight Invite in Cortland. FOUR School Records were set and FOURTEEN athletes placed overall!

At our first Meet at Ithaca College of the season, our Blue Devils were led by Ceci Kasmarcik and Clara Little each placing 6th overall in the 600 Meter Run and 30000 Meter Run respectfully. Bri Panko also had a stellar meet setting her PR in the 55 Meter Dash and now ranks as the 5th fastest in the history of the school for the event. Meanwhile, Jacob Clutz ran a 3 second PR in the 600 Meter Run and is now our 9th fastest runner in the history of the event!

Ceci Kasmarcik led the way for the Blue Devils, winning the 600 Meter Dash for the second time this season and Clara Little set her PR in the 1500 (and is now ranked 7th All Time in School History).

Our Indoor Blue Devils trackmen and women performed admirably at the 21-team Section IV Classic Invite over the weekend. The squad was led by Lauren Paske’s first place finish in the Shot Put, with another record-setting toss…this time 35’6.75” This throw places her 15th overall in the entire State (both public and private schools)!

The CFTF 2024-2025 Indoor Track Season got off to an impressive start at the 607 Invitational at SUNY Cortland on Saturday afternoon. The Indoor Devils had twelve individuals or Relay Teams place, eight of those in the Top Three, and four First Place champions.

Leading the way for the boys was senior Nate Raab who set the School Record in the 300 Meter Dash. His time of 37.16 is the Third fastest time in New York State Small Schools so far this season! Senior Lauren Paske and freshman Ceci Kasmarcik lead the way for the girls’ squad each winning their individual events. Lauren’s Shot Put throw of 34 feet 10.75 inches is the furthest so far this season in the Section, the furthest in the State for Small Schools, and the 11th furthest overall in the ENTIRE STATE of New York.

Freshman Clara Little capped her outstanding first season running Cross Country by breaking 22 minutes at a winding, very difficult Queensbury course, on a beautiful fall day. Clara was able to place 84th out of 130 runners, and we couldn’t be prouder!!
