It was business as usual for Calvert Hall and McDonogh Saturday. The squads repeated as MIAA and IAAM outdoor track and field champions, respectively, at Archbishop Spalding’s Whittles Field.

Calvert Hall finished with a meet-record 232.5 points to distance Mount St. Joseph (132.5) and Gilman (91). The Cardinals lost the indoor track crown by a mere two points in the winter.

“We were the favorites for indoor and came up short,” said Calvert Hall coach Scott Baker. “We were the favorites (outdoor) coming in and was impressed with how we performed.”

Calvert Hall junior Cameron Davis hits the second curve during his closing leg in the MIAA A 1,600 relay final. The Cardinals won the meet's final event, capping a sweep of all four relay races.

Cameron Davis collected three first-place medals in the 1,600 (4 minutes, 16.39 seconds) and 3,200-meter run (9:22.21), and anchored the 1,600 relay. The junior won for the second straight year in the 1,600.
