BOSTON – Graduate
student Hayley Collins concluded her indoor track career in brilliant fashion
at the ECAC Championships over the weekend, with two personal-best times and an
All-ECAC scoring place in the 5,000-meter run, as the Marist women’s track team
concluded it indoor track season at the ECAC Championships.
On Saturday,
Collins placed seventh in the 5,000-meter run with a personal-best time of
16:55.59. It is the fourth time this winter that she has cracked the 17-minute
barrier. On Sunday, she ran a personal-best time in the 3,000-meter run,
placing 19th in 9:53.65.
“Hayley completed
probably the greatest season of indoor racing for a long-distance runner in
school history this year,’’ women’s head coach Chuck Williams said. “Before the
season, only once was sub-17:00 achieved in the 5km. After Hayley’s season that
number now stands at five! In addition, she ran the very hard 5k/3k double in
the last two championship meets and ran three straight personal-best races
starting with the MAAC 3k. No better way to cap an indoor career and I couldn’t
be prouder.”
