It was sunny, but windy. Not the ideal spring weather we had experienced much of this winter. But it was the first official meet of the outdoor season, and both girls' and boys' Great Valley and the Strath Haven teams showed good depth. The Strath Haven girls took the Division II team competition with Great Valley 2nd. The Strath Haven guys won the Division I boys, downing a strong Cardinal O'Hara squad.

In the girls Division I competition, Ridley took the team title by placing well in the field relays. They took the Discus, and got 2nd in the Long Jump, Triple Jump, Shot Put and Javelin. In the running events, they took the Shuttle Hurdle. Upper Darby was 2nd five points back. O'Hara took the SMR, DRM and 4x200, while Chester captured the 4x100 and 4x400.

Even though Great Valley's girls took the 4x100, x200 and x400, Shuttle Hurdles, High Jump and Triple Jump, Strath Haven's depth by placing top three in 12 of the 15 events proved the difference. They captured the 4x1600, Long Jump, Shot Put and Discus relays.

The Strath Haven boys were even more dominant, taking first in the 4x100, x200, x400, x1600, SMR and DMR on the track, and the High Jump, Triple Jump and Discus in the field.

The Chichester boys defended their home meet, taking Division II by 23 over Great Valley. Chichester took the 4x100 and 4x200, with Great Valley victorious in the Shuttle Relays, 4x800, 4x1600 and SMR. The difference was in the field, as Chichester took the Pole Vault, Triple Jump and Discus.
