Toms River North Breaks meet the record to defend the 4×400 relay title at 2025 Indoor Meet of Champions

After he was occupied last year both in the indoor and in the Outdoor Meet of Champions' 4×400, it must certainly be said that the expectations for the Toms River North Relay Team were high.

The Mariners delivered again by overcoming an impressive Winslow team to repeat themselves as a 4×400 master at the 2025 Indoor Meet of Champions at Ocean Breeze in Staten Island.

“To be honest, it feels really good,” said Moredcai Ford in the first leg, shortly after he had received his gold medal. . “Not even to bring another medal, but also to make our trainers and the whole program proud. You know that this is talked about. Like this run, we will be spoken for a long time. I'm just happy to be part of it. “

The Mariners, which consist of Ford, Camryn Thomas, Taysaun Wilson and Mmadi Diawara, earned the gold with a time of 3: 15.70. Winslow took second place with 3: 15.97, while St. Peter's Prep took third place with a time of 3:21.

As you could expect from a team that is as dominant as Toms River North, the Mariners were not entirely satisfied with their destination. TRN was 3: 14.91 to take first place in the 117th millrosis games at the beginning of this season.

“To be honest, I'm not as impressed as we did,” said Thomas, the team's second leg. “We could have done it so much better.”

The team was happy to receive the meeting record because they have been keeping an eye on the tricks for some time.

“It really shows how much work we have put and how all the work we invest (pays off),” said Diawara, the team's anchor leg. “It is now shown on the route and shows up as a team how strong we are. I think relay is definitely one of our strong suits and shows that we can all be strong individually, but as a team we are even better. “
