This year, Lesley University and Lasell College have come together to create the President's Cup. This annual event will take place at the beginning of the cross country season and will always be a dual meet at Fresh Pond in Cambridge, MA.
In its first year, the Lesley women took the cup as did the Lasell men. The individual winners were both from Lesley (Francis Cusick and Noa Kupfer). Noa is our young freshman who has emerged as our lead runner. She ran 16:35 for 2.5 miles and won the race with ease. Franny did the same with 27:33 for the 5 mile race.
Sarah Chafe, Merrie Rothstein, and Brian Axelrod all ran their personal bests at Fresh Pond. They have clearly come into pre-season in shape.
Danielle Kelly and Jess Arnold continue to surprise everyone with their fast times. Whereas, Elissa May is proving why she was one of top runners in our recruiting class this year.
Saturday was a tune up race as both Lesley and Lasell will meet again next weekend at Colt State Park in Bristol, RI.

Dan, I don't know how much clearer I can make this: my name is spelled with an "ie" not a "y"...other than that, solid blogging.
