Three Scarsdale Raider Sprinters Take Home Westchester County Championships

Scarsdale runners broke a century old school record at the Westchester County Championships for track and field on May 15-16, 2026. It was a successful performance for the Raiders overall, with the boys finishing in second place in the county and the girls taking home third. In addition to great team results, three Scarsdale Raider sprinters took home county championships for being the fastest in their individual events.

Labrowne Brown became the Westchester County champion in the boys 100 meter run. After running 10.87 seconds in the preliminary round, Brown calmly advanced to finals where he ran 10.83 seconds in the 100 meter dash. This mark was fast enough for first overall in the county as Brown won the race. The results broke a school record which has not been topped since 1940. Brown's time of 10.83 seconds made him 17th in New York State.

If one 100 meter champion was not good enough, Alice Nicassio followed up Labrowne Brown’s impressive victory with a county championship of her own. After Nicassio ran 12.52 seconds in the prelims, coming in with the second fastest time in the race, Nicassio successfully earned her spot in the 100 meter finals. Then, after finishing second in the finals, Nicassio flipped the script and came in first, finishing with a time of 12.39 seconds to become Scarsdale's second county champion of the day. This time was 0.12 seconds faster than the second place finisher, who in the prelims defeated Nicassio. Alice’s personal record in this event, which is 12.28 seconds, is second fastest in Scarsdale history for this event.

Finally, senior Jake Saxon was Scarsdale’s final county champion as an individual in the 110 meter hurdle event on Friday. After smashing the preliminary round; with a time of 14.99 Saxon earned his spot in the championship race. After finishing first in the prelims, Saxon also finished first overall in the finals and earned a personal record with an overall time of 14.65 seconds, making him 11th in NY State.

It was an amazing couple days for the Scarsdale sprinters as well as an extraordinary two days for the track and field team as a whole. Much of the team earned personal records and these performances are indicative of where the team is headed. This season's Westchester County Championships marked the best that Scarsdale has ever performed at a county championship in track.
