St Mary’s U16 relay team broke the U16 4 x100m record set by the school in 2010 in a time of 51.69 seconds.

Unfortunately, owing to Covid-19, the girls were unable to compete last year but this did not negate the fact that it was the 13th time in 14 years that St Mary’s has won the inter-high athletics shield.
