School Records, Qualifying Times at Indoor Track New England's
BOSTON, Mass. - A pair of school records fell as the Bowdoin
College indoor track and field teams competed at the Open New
England Championship this weekend at Boston University. Elsa
Millett and Christine Head both bested their own program records
while Millett and Thompson Ogilvie both reached NCAA provisional
qualifying standards.
Millett posted a time of 58.08 in her 400 meter dash trial to break
her own school mark, and finished in 10th place overall in the
event in 58.87. Her time qualified provisionally for the NCAA
Championship. Head's pole vault height of 10-11.75 also shattered
her own program record and earned her an eighth-place showing
overall.
On the men's side, Ogilvie's time of 4:12.34 in the mile was good
enough for eighth place individually and reached the NCAA
provisional qualifying standard. Colman Hatton posted the best
finish in the Division-I loaded field by placing fourth in the 5000
meter race (14:48.56). Matt Hillard earned a fifth-place showing in
the 1000 meters (2:30.27).
