Men's and Women's Track & Field Athletes Compete at Boston University Meet

The Wheaton College men's and women's track & field teams competed at Boston University for the second time this season, as the two-day, non-scoring Valentine Invitational came to an end on Saturday. Senior Natana Jules (Brooklyn, NY/Boys and Girls), junior Renee Thompson (Hartford, CT/Weaver) and freshmen Lauren Cardarelli (Cranston, RI/La Salle Academy) and Didine Jusme (Providence, RI/Classical) surpassed an NCAA Championship provisional time in the 4×400-meter relay. The quartet took seventh out of 35 teams in 3:55.65, as three of the top six foursomes hailed from Division I schools. In the high jump, sophomore Erin Neville (North Providence, RI/La Salle Academy) tied for ninth place. On the men's side, freshman Cailean Robinson (Newton, MA/Phillips Exeter Academy) and senior Michael Wright (Baldwin, NY/Uniondale) were 10th and 14th, respectively, in the 200M, junior Michael Latner (Torrance, CA/West) finished 15th in the pole vault, and freshman Marcus Dennis (Hyde Park, MA/Thayer Academy) placed 17th in the triple jump.
