The women's 5K varsity race at the Collegiate New England Championships yesterday looked like a Bay State reunion there for a moment. Wellesley's Brielle Chabot (17:56) and Alexandra Krieg (18:02) finished 5th and 7th, respectively, while Newton North's Jess Barton was 18th in 18:25, a Franklin Park PR. Other Bay Staters included Natick's Anya Price (Tufts '12) in 19:47, and North's Anna Schindler (Wesleyan '09) in 20:11. There might have been others in the 300-person field, but if so, I missed 'em.
In the men's varsity 8K race, Dedham's Rex Radloff (UMass Lowell) placed 3rd in 24:43, ten seconds ahead of former Brockton standout Kevin Gill. Brookline's Elliot Lehane (Boston University) finished 44th (25:33), ahead of former rival, current teammate David Polgar (PR 25:49). Although I watched the entire race, I never saw David. At one point, I even joked to Colin McArdle that if David was in the race, I would certainly see him because he's so hard to miss. Well, apparently married life has not only improved his times, but given him the power of invisibility.
Moving right along, Seb Putzeys (Newton North '08, Northeastern '12) ran 26:34, ten seconds ahead of Jerzy Eisenberg-Guyot (Brookline '07, Tufts '11). Former Braintree speedsters Kyle Higgins and Chris O'Day, represented Assumption, running 27:32 and 27:40, respectively. Ben Chebot (Newton North '08, Bates '12) ran 28:43.
In the men's sub-varsity race, Wesleyan's Scott Cole (Newton North '05) continued his efforts to rebound from injury, running 33:17.
If I missed anyone, let me know.

I was actually at 28:46 I beleive....
the jv results are about as wrong as they could possibly be
Former Weymouth athletes Kristen Mahoney of Stonehill (20:21) and Sam Sacchetti of Umass (21:20) each ran well considering that they are on the road back from illness.
Erynn Sweeney (21:11) for Assumption.
While official results aren't yet available for the JV race, Sam Miller formerly of Needham, currently running for Middlebury ran somewhere in the 27:20 range.
