Sam Howell Invitational: Emily Burns, strong steeple race

Sophomore Emily Burns had a solid 2017 steeplechase debut in pretty challenging conditions on Friday night in Princeton. The wind was gusting pretty strong and it was quite chilly. She was just a few ticks off her personal-best time and had a solid overall effort, placing fifth out of 16 competitors. Definitely worth the trip down to New Jersey, as she prepares for bigger and better things in this event in the coming weeks. Nicely done.
