Martin also finished third in the mile run. Harvard junior Edward Baker won the event with a time of 4:14.4.
In the 3,000-meter run, Baker raced to victory once again (8:35.76). Harvard, in fact, claimed the top three places in that event, as senior co-captain Darren Dinneen (8:43.55) and John Friedman (8:45.21) finished second and third respectively.
For Dinneen, who mostly specializes in the 800-meter run, the 3,000-meter event was somewhat of a new experience.
"Darren is trying to build up a lot of distance strength," Martin said.
The Crimson received victories in the 400 and 500 meter runs from sophomores Kobie Fuller and Osahon Omoregie, respectively.
Junior John Kraay captured the Harvard men's lone victory in the field events, triumphing in the shot put with a throw of 14.45 meters.
The Crimson clinched its winning performance with a close victory in the one-mile relay, defeating the Huskies' team by a mere six-tenths of a second.
"The relays really show who is the stronger team," said Martin. "They show who has the depth."
