‘This one was the toughest’

Corey Bennett, head coach of Hydel High School, has described his team’s latest triumph in the Championship of America girls’ 4x400m relay at the Penn Relays as the toughest of their five consecutive titles. Hydel extended their remarkable dominance with a hard-fought victory at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, clocking a season’s best 3:32.85, their third-fastest time ever. The Ferry-based team was powered to victory by Nastassia Fletcher, Sashashuntae Hemmings, Aaliah Mullings and Sashana Johnson.
