Quimes finishes in top third of field in steeplechase at Princeton

Sorry for the delay in posting this result from Friday night: Senior Arquimedes DelaCruz place 11th out of 34 competitors in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the Larry Ellis Invitational at Princeton University. His time of 9:12.16 was six seconds slower than his school record that he set earlier this season. Quimes’ next crack at lowering his school record will come at the MAAC Championships in two weeks. This time was still well faster the IC4A qualifying mark. Quimes has set the bar high for himself: When a substandard race still qualifies him for ICs, that shows you how far he has come.
