Old Tappan a team to watch in Group 3

Mar 27, 2025

Photo Wexler-NorthJersey.comOld TappanThe Golden Knights lose quite a bit of scoring from 2024 in multi-time M of Cs gold medalists in Abby Dennis and Layla Giordano, but there’s a core for this team to lean on at every meet. The points are predominately going to come in the field events for NVOT with senior pole vaulter Jamie Kim being one of the team’s most reliable scorers. Kim has a PR 11-6 and has cleared that height four times while her teammates in senior Salome Sanchez and sophomore Caroline Ognibene are both 10-6 vaulters. Ognibene is going to supply points across multiple events for the Golden Knights with a PR 5-3 in the high jump and plenty of potential in the long jump. Dickinson College-bound senior Sophia Katechis has a PR 11:07.26 in the 3,200 which was clocked over the winter and she’s running more 1,600s with her best being a 5:21.68.
