COLLEGE WOMEN'S INDOOR TRACK & FIELD RESULTS
Tufts Invitational III

Meet Results

MEDFORD -- Sophomore Logan Crane (Portland, ME) and senior co-captain Cat Beck (Brookline, NH) both ran NCAA provisionally qualifying times on Saturday at the third Tufts home invitational of the season at the Gantcher Center. The meet was the last prior to the start of the championship season.

Crane ran the preliminaries of the 55 meters in 7.31 seconds, getting her within the 7.32 provisional mark for the NCAA. She then won the final in 7.35 seconds. Beck, the versatile All-American, ran the 800 in a 2:14.36 time that was well within the 2:16.90 provisional mark. She has also qualified for Nationals in the mile and in the 5K, events in which she has the second-fastest times in the country to date. In the 800 at Tufts on Saturday, Boston College's Caitlin Bailey ran 2:07.65 to win the race ahead of Beck.

Stephanie McNamara (North Attleborough, MA) continued her fine first campaign for Tufts with a second-place finish of 2:57.95 in the 1,000 meters.

Tufts will travel to Smith College next weekend for the New England Division III Indoor Championships.
