While Jones was qualifying for bigger and better meets, Captain Elizabeth Ross finished her career this weekend, finishing fourth in the semifinal heat of the 400-meter hurdles race, crossing the finish line in 63.50.
Junior Romney Resney, Harvard's only other scorer in the meet besides Jones, placed third in the 10,000-meter run in 36 minutes flat.
Other competitors for the Crimson included freshman Rita Raju, who finished 10th in the triple jump with a distance of 37-ft., 10 1/2-in., and freshman Kathy Griffin. Griffin placed seventh in the shotput with a toss of 13.06 meters and seventh in the hammerthrow with a distance of 44.60 meters.
