BU Valentine Invitational: Men's results

The magic strikes again at Boston University. Top to bottom, it was a superb day for the men’s track team (after a good start with the women’s DMR in the morning). Makes the “rust” of two weeks ago at Ocean Breeze seem like two months ago, doesn’t it? From top to bottom, here are some quick highlights, along with the results:

--As noted in previous post, sprinter Jeremy Mooney shattered the school record in the 200-meter dash. Prior to that, he had a strong 12^th place finish in the 60-meter dash.

--Senior captain Santosh Krishnan notched indoor personal-best times in the 200 and 400 dashes, and finished the day with a strong split on the 4x400 relay.

--CSG and Ropes had strong races, with Zachary Ropes returning to the track for his first race in two years! We sorely missed our long and lean racing machine.

--Freshman Paul Sandford notched a strong PR in 1000.

--Moe and Sweeney had strong PRs in mile.

--Czop and Kutch had solid PRs in 3km.

--Along with the new sub-15 guys in the 5km, all four entrants ran personal-best times in the event, working together for most of the race. See picture above.

--And finally, there were some strong splits in the 4x400 and 4x800 relays.

We love this place and we are eager to return for the Valentine Invitational in three weeks.
