MAAC Championships, Day 2: Men's results -- 4x800 relay wins in photo finish!

Like the rain that kept pelting down, the suspense built with each leg of the men's 4x800 relay. Brian Henderson put us out front and in position in the leadoff leg, as he has done sooooo many times. James Moehringer ran an MVP caliber second leg, Drew Burns put us in command, and Chris Tibbetts battled every step to the finish -- a photo finish vs. Rider! The finish line photo was flashed on the scoreboard. No one knew who won. The suspense built ... until ... the scoreboard flashed ... a Marist win! By the slimmest of margins. Pretty cool, great way for our seniors to go out. Speaking of seniors ... Mike Kennedy ran a gutsy scoring effort in the 5km, taking control of the chase pack when no one else would, and made us all proud. Elias Platanias and Patrick Kutch got impressive PRs in the terrible conditions as well. Very good stuff.
