Cornell had two first-place finishes, coming from freshman Beatrice Juskeviciute in the heptathlon and senior Briar Brumley in the 3000-meter steeplechase. Along with these finishes, the Red had eleven top-three finishes, which led to its ultimate third place finish.
The Red dominated the 800-meter event with eight members finishing in the top ten.
“I came out of the weekend really fired up. I cannot say I was surprised, I was very pleased. People were competitive and beat some very good people and put up great times.”
“One of the hallmarks of this team is that whether in the throws, the field events or on the track, we have very good people in all areas of the sport.”
Ian Moritz ’22 and Rogelio Gordon sprang into action when they saw a near-naked man attack two women on North Campus.
Cornell police arrested the Cornell freshman after witnesses said he attacked two women while wearing only a green T-shirt and told them he was going to rape them.
After turning in a wide range of impressive performances, Cornell looks to repeat its success at the ECAC/IC4 Championships next weekend.
The Red has had three meets thus far at which it competed against its Ivy League rivals.
Cornell track — which was recently ranked eighth in the Northeast — turned in strong performances at the Penn Relays, building optimism as the team readies for the postseason.
Cementing the team’s standing ahead of the postseason, at the Larry Ellis Invitational — one of the several meets Cornell competed in last week — men’s finished with 21 top-15 finishes, while women’s ended the day with 20 top-10 performances.
