ECAC Championships: Women's University Division results

A few thoughts and highlights on a memorable finish for our seniors and just an all-around great day for the entire team:

--This was our second-ever ECAC University Division Championship for the women. The other was in 2009. The men won the University Division way back in 2000.

--We had four (4!) All-East (top-25 finishers) runners.

--Our women overcame the loss of varsity runners Kristen Traub and Janelle Solviletti, both of whom did not race due to injury.

--Our women were fourth last year, so this is a three-place improvement.

--Our women in the Coaches Race (JV) really set the tone with strong performances and a first-place team standing in that race.
