Track To Compete at Outdoor Heps

"Yale's a tougher team outdoors," Taylor said. "They have a girl who wasn't winning much before who's now winning everything. It's amazing how one good person can get you so many points."

While Yale and Brown will be tough, with Taylor, Schutte, and Gyorffy capable of scoring as many as 70 points by themselves, the Crimson has a good chance of winning its first Outdoor Heptagonal Championship since 1990. But the stars will need other teammates to come up big.

"Depth will make your team win," Taylor said.

Harvard Men

While the men likely will not be able to compete for the Heptagonal championship, a number of athletes are capable of winning individual titles.

Captain Darren Dinneen had a breakthrough meet against Yale, winning the 800-meter and 1500-meter events. Dinneen was an NCAA qualifier last season, and he may be as healthy right now as he has been all year.

Junior Arthur Fergusson will be looking for a title in the triple jump, after finishing third in the event at last year's Outdoor Heps and fifth at this year's Indoors.

Junior John Kraay has had a spectacular season this year for the Harvard throwers. Kraay has been winning the shot put all year for Harvard. He should be able to beat or match his third-place finish in the event at Indoor Heps.
