The dominance in the event continued on the men’s side, as freshman Tyler Spear finished in just under nine minutes to claim the title. In shorter distance events, freshman Ben Huffman finished second on the men’s side while the women had a troika of top-10 finishes between freshmen Annika Gompers, Sarah Angell, and Lizzy Thomas.

“I think the schedule has really allowed us to catch our breath and the team is fired up and excited for the outdoor season,” Saretsky said. “We certainly have a lot of work to do to get to where we want to be overall but still the transition to outdoors has gone relatively smoothly.”

Saretsky further noted that the team has enjoyed a run of good health at the right time of the year, with the squad almost complete as it heads to the stretch run.

“I feel now the team is at a good spot,” Saretsky said. “We have great medical people behind us and keeping us in one piece.”

CORRECTIONS: March 30, 2015

An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated that senior Danielle Barbian's finish in the 100-meter dash was an Ivy League record. In fact, it is not a record time. An earlier version of this article also miscontextualized a quote from coach Kebba Tolbert. In fact, he was referring to Autumne Franklin's finish in the 400-meter hurdles, not Barbian. Finally, an earlier version of this article misquoted Tolbert as saying that his team "expects to be at the very top" at nationals. In fact, he said they "have" to be at the very top.
