Matanzas freshman Peyton Cerasi has broken the school track records in both the 1,600- and 3,200-meter races. She currently ranks fourth in the state among Class 3A runners in the 3,200 with a time of 11:04.34 and ninth in the 1,600 with a 5:10.35.
At the Craig Speziale Memorial Invitational on March 1 at Ponte Vedra High, she placed second in both events, breaking the Pirates' school record in both in 5:10.35 in the 1,600 and 11:26.16 in the 3,200. A week later at the River City Relays at UNF, she shattered her own 3,200 mark by 22 seconds with a winning time of 11:04.34. She also won the 1,600 in 5:14.04.
Cerasi, who transferred from FPC after the fall semester, now owns school records at two different high schools. She set the FPC girls cross country record with a 5K time of 18:19.2 to finish seventh at the Class 4A state championships.
