GREAT BARRINGTON -- The Monument Mountain track and field team took care of business at home Tuesday afternoon, sweeping a dual meet against Mount Everett.
The Spartan girls racked up 120 points, while the boys polished off a 95-36 victory with a couple of the county's top marks thus far.
The Monument girls got two wins apiece from Amelia Desilets, Arabella Calautti, and Caroline Becker. Desilets added her name to the 2026 Berkshire County Honor Roll in a third event by winning the 800. Calautti won the 100 hurdles and high jump, while Becker was the top long and triple jumper.
On the boys' side, Oliver Curtis was a double winner in the sprints for the Spartans. Mount Everett got two wins from senior Ben Vella, who won the day's most thrilling event in the 1 Mile.
Vella was matched against Spartan distance upstart Sean Collins, and the Eagle veteran was able to hold Collins off by .02 seconds, winning in 5:10.54. Vella also won the 2 Mile.
Perhaps the bigger stories of the day were Monument's Jade Pelletier and the Spartan boys' 4x400 relay team.
Pelletier climbed into the county's top spot in javelin with a second throw of 153 feet, 1 inch. That supplanted Greylock's Ward Bianchi -- set to compete Wednesday -- by a foot, and qualifies Pelletier for the MIAA D-VI State Championships.
Monument distance star Everett Pacheco won a, for him relatively ho-hum, 800-meter race, but did not compete in either long-distance event. Instead, he linked up and served as anchor for Collins, Curtis and Quon Meyers in the 4x400. That quartet’s result of 3:47.58 edges underneath the 3:47.65 mark set earlier this season by Pittsfield.
The D-VI qualifying standard for the 4x400 is 3:40.94.
