Amherst Women Repeat NESCAC Title - October 29, 2007
The Amherst Lady Jeffs claimed their second consecutive NESCAC cross country crown on Saturday, October 27 at Mount Greylock High School in Williamstown, MA. Amherst finished with a score of 37 points to runner-up Williams College’s 77.
Finishing third was Bowdoin College with 109. It was a tight battle for the next team spot; only a single point separated the fourth, fifth, and sixth squads. Middlebury took fourth with 124, Colby fifth with 125, and Tufts sixth with 126.
Light rain and moderate-to-heavy winds plagued the runners over the 6 kilometer course. Puddles and muddy conditions resulted in slow times across the board. Amherst’s squad packed up in victorious fashion, placing all seven Jeffs in the top 20.
Amherst’s Heather Wilson was the individual champion, clocking in 21:57, an impressive time considering the inclement conditions. Rounding out the top five were Catherine Beck of Tufts University (22:15), Yasmine White of Bowdoin College (22:19), Katy O’Brien of Tufts University (22:22), and Alexandra Krieg of Middlebury College (22:27). |
