Eight Tufts track athletes — seven men and one woman — competed at the NCAA Division III Championships on March 8 and 9 after qualifying for the meet earlier in the season. The Jumbos held their own against a selective group of talent.
Last weekend, the men’s and women’s track and field teams took on the New England Division III Championships at The Track at New Balance. The three day championships were the culmination of an impressive indoor season for the Jumbos. Both teams sported top ten finishes, with the men’s team placing second out of 26 teams with 106.5 points and the women’s team placing tenth out of 27 teams with 30 points.
The Tufts women’s and men’s track competed in the Boston University David Hemery Valentine Invitational and Massachusetts Institute of Technology Gordon Kelly Invitational last Friday and Saturday, respectively. The Jumbos proved themselves a force to be reckoned with, as they recorded strong finishes and held their own against D1 competition.
