After a successful showing in Indoor competitions, Track and Field prepares for the Outdoor season.
The men and women’s track and field teams competed in the Deneault Invitational as a final tune-up before the 2022 Ivy League Indoor Heptagonal Track and Field Championships this coming weekend.
“Our goal has been pretty consistent over the past year or so,” Durant said. “We want to win.”
Representing the Red this weekend in the upcoming NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships are Brooke Overholt ’22 and Beatrice Juskeviciute ’22, who will be looking to polish their resumes with a national title.
After turning in a wide range of impressive performances, Cornell looks to repeat its success at the ECAC/IC4 Championships next weekend.
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.
Women’s track and field delivered impressive performances as it toured southern California to compete in three meets, including the Pomona-Pitzer Invite where the team won four events.
This weekend, Cornell looks to come out on top of the competition at the Kane Invitational, flipping the focus to individual performances.
“All of our event groups have been putting in great work all fall and they are excited to see the fruits of their labor.”
