Track Half-Full at Columbia

Like the men, the Harvard women brought only a fraction of its team, constrained by training and injuries.

Junior Marna Schutte won the 400 meter event with a time of 55.58 seconds and placed second in the 200 meter.

Sophomore Carrie McGraw won the 400 meter hurdles, and freshman Amanda Shanklin placed second.

Schutte and McGraw--along with freshman teammates Alayna Miller and Jennifer Leath--won the 4 by 100 meter relay for the Crimson.

"I think it's fair to say that Harvard was dominant in almost every event in which we entered people," Schutte said.

In the 3,000 meter, junior Senta Burton came up with an impressive second place finish.

In the field events, freshman Jill Kornestsky won the hammer throw, and three other Crimson throwers--freshman Donielle Colich, sophomore Nicky Grant and Kristy Johnson--all placed in the top six.

Sophomore Carrie Haberstroh put in a strong performance in the discus throw as well.
