‘Cac Track

This past weekend our very own NESCAC schools represented us well at the NCAA Divison III Indoor Track and Field Championships. I was fortunate to catch the action on the live feed:

But for those of you that missed it, here’s the rundown (pun intended):

Overall, the women’s side saw two teams crack the top 10: Tufts came in 9th with Middlebury right behind in 10th place. On the men’s side, Bates also found itself in the scoring mix in 10th place.

The ‘Cac is also proud to announce its new All-Americans (8th place or better in an event):
