By Sarah Hood | February 6, 1996

The men's track team stepped back into competition last Saturday hosting the University of Vermont and the University of Connecticut at home. The members of the men's team have reason to be pleased with their performances as they not only stepped up individually, but also won the meet, something they were not expected to do. Two weeks ago at the championship round of the New England Cup, the men finished third behind Brown and the same strong UConn team who visited Dartmouth's Leverone Fieldhouse this past weekend. Not this time.
