XC:
The men’s and women’s cross country teams competed in the University of Delaware Blue & Gold Invitational on Oct. 8. Four out of the five Hawks that ran placed in the top five including junior Danielle Leavitt, who finished second with a time of 23:49.89, which was the fourth best in school history at the University of Delaware’s White Clay Creek State Park course. Seniors Abby Baker (24:42.27) and Matt Nelson (27:41.50) and freshman Henry Sappey (27:50.55) also placed in the top five.
“The Delaware course is hilly and very challenging, and it was the perfect test for our team members who needed a race this week,” Head Coach Joe Compagni said. “Danielle, Matt and Henry were all right near the front the entire race, which is great experience for them.”
The blue and white will next run at the Princeton Invitational on Oct. 15.
M Golf:
The men’s golf team carded a 298 in the first round of Binghamton’s Matthews Auto Collegiate Invitational on Oct. 2. Freshman Andy Stock shot a 148 in his second career event to lead the Hawks, with junior Kyle Burke carding a 150. The Hawks next hit the course on Thursday in the Hawk Invitational. The event was originally scheduled for Sept. 29, but was postponed due to rain.
