NEW HAVEN, CT — For the third time overall, but first since 2020, Glastonbury captured team honors in the CIAC girls indoor track State Open, cruising to victory Saturday at the Floyd Little Athletic Center.

The Guardians racked up 52 points to easily outdistance the 36 put up by E.O. Smith. Conard and Hall, crosstown rivals from West Hartford, tied for third.
