The Wheaton-and-Babson-hosted event took place in Suffolk, with the women’s course being 3000 meters and the men’s course being 5000 meters.

For the women’s team, Kyra Au ’25 ran a 12:04.75 which netted her 17th place, Sadie Harrow ’27 ran a 12:18.39 and earned 25th place, Ella Warkentine ’26 ran an 11:58.79 which was good for 8th place, Anna Batelli ’25 ran a 12:14.56 to grab 20th place and Zada Forde ’25 followed closely with a 12:14.70 for 21st place. The Brandeis team took 3rd overall at the meet, behind Suffolk University and College of the Holy Cross.

For the men’s team, Henry Nguyen ’25 PR’d with a 16:29.95, putting him in 17th place. Rob King ’26 PR’d too, with a time of 16:41.57 and 20th place.
