Jaguars shine on the track

Posted

Add the names Marco Fava, Gabriel Bowden, Evan Ferrell, Arianna Pagnano, Lillyann Lucini and Charlotte Chapman to the tradition rich Nicholas A. Ferri Middle School sports record books.
Under a sparkling sun, which covered the state-of-the-art artificial surface track inside Johnston High School’s Mayor Joseph M. Polisena Stadium last Thursday afternoon, those five members of Ferri’s Unified Track Team ranked among the best runners in a multi-school race.
Heading the list was Fava, who is rated one of the best in the state as far as middle school sports are concerned, he finished what Coach Sandy Nardolillo called “an amazing third place in the state.”
As further proof of Fava’s overall track talent, Nardolillo emphasized “Marco previously finished in first place in all other races this year.”
Likewise, Bowden placed an impressive seventh place in the field of to-flight runners that represented 10 schools while Ferrell was close by her side alongside her pace. As equally impressive, Pagnano ran what Nardolillo called “a strong race as did Lucini and Chapman who were close behind.”
Many members of the Ferri Middle School faculty including Joan Wright, were on hand to offer their support and cheer the Jaguars team on.
