Barthelmes Snags State Champ Title in Track

Alyssa Barthelmes - a senior at Lindenhurst High School and a member of the Varsity Girls Track team - just won the NYSPHSAA Boys and Girls Indoor Track Championships this past weekend.

"She was in the 200-meter leg of the Section XI intersectional relay this March 2 at Cornell University. She can now add State Champion to her already impressive resume," Steve Gosline, head coach of the LHS Varsity Girls Track team, shared with Lindenhurst Patch in an e-mail earlier this week.

"Last year she was Suffolk County champion in the 300-meter. She holds four school records, [and is] five-time All-League, County Champ and State Champ," noted Gosline.

Barthelmes will continue her running career at Bloomsburg University next year.

"I'm so proud of Alyssa. I'm happy to see her hard work paid off, and she received this great honor of earning a gold medal at the State championships," Gosline told Patch.
