Neel Chittur and track coach Steven Gallagher at the New York State meet.

Congratulations to Neel Chittur!

On Saturday the junior placed 21st in the 3200m at the New York State Indoor Track and Field Championship meet.

Chittur also ran a new personal best of 9:33:48 and holds the new Albany High School record which was previously set by him during this indoor track season. The last record, held by a different student-athlete in the 3200m, was Alfie Woodard in 1982.

Chittur is the sixth-ranked junior in the state in the 3200m.

We're proud of you Neel and thank you to head coach Steve Gallagher!
