By Gregory O'Sullivan | May 16, 2007Jennie Post / The Dartmouth Staff The good weather over the weekend brought out the best in the Dartmouth track and field squads, as the men's team took second place and the women's team finished third at the New England Track and Field Championships, held from Thursday to Saturday, at Memorial Field in Hanover. On the men's side, the University of Rhode Island distanced itself from the 36-team field, winning the overall team event with 155.5 points to capture the New England outdoor title for the fifth consecutive year. The Big Green men garnered 111.75 points, marking the third year in a row that they have finished in second place behind URI. The women finished with 98.5 points for third place out of 33 teams, but were only 4.5 points behind runner-up Boston College and 9.5 points behind the champions, Williams. "Just about everyone who competed achieved personal records, which was a great way to finish the season," Natalie Todd-Zebell '09 said.
