SARATOGA SPRINGS —Saratoga Springs’ Emily Bush won the girls’ 3000-meter run at the New York State Public High School Athletic Association’s (NYSPHSAA) indoor track and field championships in Staten Island last weekend. Bush had been heavily favored to win.
“It was such a surreal moment,” Bush said in an interview posted by the NYSPHSAA. “This year, I’ve been going to every race just wanting to have fun and just really get on the track and leave it all out there, regardless of whatever time I run, regardless of whatever place I get.”
Bush is bound for Providence College, where she will continue to compete in cross-country and track.
