Lambert runs for the Belgrave Harriers, a British club which also lists rising sophomore Alasdair McLean-Foreman among its members. McLean-Foreman—the men’s team’s most decorated freshman this past year—was the Indoor Heps champion in the 800-meter run.

Even though Lambert has been distant from Harvard track thus far, he is still under the impression that reconciliation is possible. But Lambert cannot train under a private coach of his personal choice during the school year if he expects to run collegiate track.

“He’s a nice enough fellow,” said Harvard Coach Frank Haggerty ’68. “But we try to be a little more than caretakers here.”

Taylor and Gyorffy have each managed to succeed at both the collegiate level and the international level despite the extended season, under the tutelage of Associate Head Coach Walter Johnson ’71 and Paul Turner, respectively. Taylor earned several Heptagonal titles and an NCAA title during the college season preceding her personal best time during the summer. Gyorffy won four Heptagonal titles and an NCAA title during the school year and has since placed highly in several international competitions.

Taylor and Gyorffy have each been active in recent competition. Gyorffy placed sixth in an IAAF Golden League meet in Monaco last Friday with a 1.95-meter height—her best of the summer—and then jumped 1.89 meters to place fourth at a Grand Prix meet in London two days later. Taylor most recently placed seventh at a Grand Prix meet in Stockholm with a time of 57.95 seconds, well off of her personal best of 55.46 seconds, which she ran in Zagreb on July 2.

The World Championships will begin in Edmonton one week from today.
