In Division 2, the Mount Greylock girls notched the best team finish among Berkshire County teams, and the Lenox girls and Monument Mountain boys ran off with titles in the mile relay.
At Westfield State, Nda was two-tenths better than the 11.22 seconds Putnam Voc's Lamont Gooden ran in 2013 -- in Nda's qualifying round.
Then he lowered the bar to even further with a 10.80 in the finals to win the event and 10 team points for Pittsfield.
Nda placed second in the 200 to Westfield's Shea Drugan (22.13). The Pittsfield senior's 22.38 also would have been a meet record. the fastest time in meet history before Drugan and Nda's assault on the record books: a 22.49 recorded by Tahanto's Bryan Hayes in 2014.
Nda notched 18 points with his stellar sprints to contribute to Pittsfield's 39-point team total, good for sixth place among 26 teams recording points.
Westborough's boys won the team title with a score of 90.33.
Also on Saturday, Pittsfield got a second-place from Kieran Coscia in the discus (135-10) and another second from Sincere Moorer in the triple jump (42-7).
Pittsfield's girls earned a pair of fifth-place finishes in the relays. The 4-by-400 quartet as Lyndsay Vosburgh, Sydney Ferris, Ava Telladira and Meredith McCandless clocked a time of 4:29.54. In the 4-by-100, Tess Tierney, Cece Supranowicz, Jamie Duquette and Randi Duquette finished in 52.78.
At Lunenburg High School, Berkshire County rolled up the points in the final track event of boys' D2 morning meet and the girls' afternoon meet.
In the boys 4-by-400, Monument Mountain's Gavin Santos, Colin Kinne, Quinn Redpath and Lucien Firth ran a time of 3:32.44 to place first by 1.41 seconds ahead of runner-up Bromfield.
Third place in the mile relay went to Lenox's Harry Touloukian, Ely Carroll, Ted Yee and Andre Collins.
That performance added six points to Lenox's team total and helped the Millionaires place 11th overall with 24 points, the best boys finish by a Berkshire County team. Quabbin won the boys' title with 82 points; Mount Greylock placed 15th, Monument was 19th, Wahconah was 32nd, Taconic was 37th and Hoosac Valley's boys placed 39th.
The girls 4-by-400 relay was won by Lenox's Solia Schmid, Elyssa Scrimo, Savannah Reber and Mary Elliot in 4:15.92 -- nearly 10 seconds ahead of runner-up Mount Greylock (Sophia Mele, Lily McDermott, Chase Hoey and Maggie Nichols), which finished in 4:25.78.
Lenox's girls placed ninth out of 36 teams with 33 team points -- 10 from the 4-by-800 relay and four from the 4-by-800 relay that placed fifth when the meet began on Thursday.
"I think it just speaks to how much, as a team, we support each other and work hard to push each other every single day in workouts," Elliot said of the Millionaires' success in the relays. "We're such a small team, but we find the talent within each other and within ourselves."
Schmid indicated the best may still be to come.
"This season, we've broken like four or five school records," Schmid said. "[Scrimo] is in seventh grade, [Reber] is in eighth grade. And we just PR'd, and we won. It's just incredible."
Elliot, who placed second in the 400 meters with a time of 57.97 on Saturday, and Shmid are both juniors.
Mount Greylock's girls matched their finish from 2019 -- the last time there was high school track and field in Massachusetts -- by finishing second with 58.33 points, just behind team titlist Littleton, which collected 61.50 points.
Elizabeth Dupras, who placed second in the pentathlon on Thursday, contributed more points on Saturday with a second in the 100 hurdles (16.39) and a fourth in the long jump (17-3).
Mount Greylock freshman Nichols contributed both in the 4-by-400 and by finishing third in the 100 with a time of 13.16.
Mounties senior Jacqueline Wells provided 10 points on Saturday (and 14 points in the meet) by placing third in the 400 (1:02.17) and fifth in the triple jump (33-5-1/2).
The Wahconah girls placed 21st in the team standings. Pentathlete Aryianna Garceau, who placed sixth fourth on Thursday, came back and placed seventh in the 100 on Saturday.
Hoosac Valley's girls placed 25th behind a third-place finish by Lilly Boudreau on Saturday in the 400-meter hurdles (1:07.74). Monument Mountain and Taconic placed 31st and 36th, respectively.
In the boys meet, Mount Greylock Saturday got a third-place finish in the discus from Ryan Goss (128-9) and a fifth-place showing from Daniel Warren (111-02).
Wahconah Saturday got sixth-place finishes in the 400 hurdles from Brennan Andersen (1:01.81) and in the long jump from Brodie Calvert (20-5-1/4). Taconic's Sean Harrigan placed sixth in the triple jump (39-3-3/4).
