track teams run with the ’hounds

The Muhlenberg track and field teams took advantage of their first meet with nice weather to combine for seven ECAC qualifiers at the Greyhound Invitational. The large meet hosted by Moravian featured Division I athletes from schools such as Temple, Lafayette and Lehigh as well as non-collegiate competitors.

Seniors Stuart Udis and David Chorney won the 800 and 1,500 meters, respectively. Udis’ time of 1:53.08 just missed the NCAA provisional mark of 1:53.00 and wasn’t far off the meet record of 1:52.84.

The women also enjoyed success in the relays, with the 4x100 running the second-fastest time in school program. At right, freshman Jenna Schaffer hands off to senior Lucy Brock.

Junior Jennifer Lynch placed second in the 1,500 with an ECAC-qualifying time.
