Coral Gables, FL & Newport News, Va. - The University of Richmond Track and Field program wrapped up their weekend at the Miami Hurricanes Alumni Invitational and the CNU Captain's Classic with many successful results.
Madison Trippett, Kyra Keurentjes, Kayla O'Connell and Kate McAndrew all produced positive results as they finished their time in Florida.
Madison Trippett soared in the 1500m, taking the first place finish with a time of 4:21.41. Using a strong last lap and quick final 120m she closed the final 400m in 67.72 to claim victory over a deep field. Her mark and new personal best in the 1500m now sits at No. 1 in the A-10, No. 11 in the ECAC and No. 20 in the NCAA East.
