Results
"This might be the most points we have ever scored at this meet even if we finished fourth," said head coach Kevin Donner. "I was pleased with all our event groups and we showed great balance. Going back-to-back days in a team-oriented atmosphere is a great performance for the Patriot League Championships. I thought we handled the adverse weather well. It was great to end the meet with a school record in the 4x400-meter relay."
