The women's track team's second-place finish at the Ivy League Heptagonal Championships at Cornell on Sunday was a culmination of the indoor season, and a number of individuals were awarded for the part they played in the team's success.

Natasha Smith '11 claimed First Team All-Ivy honors for winning the pentathlon at Heps. Smith was spurred on by victories in the high jump and shot put and a second-place finish in the 60-meter hurdles.

Nicole Burns' '09 time of 55.78 seconds in the 400-meter dash was good for first place and the corresponding First Team All-Ivy award, while she received Second Team All-Ivy for her second-place finish in the 200-meter dash.

The only other victory and subsequent First Team All-Ivy award was on the men's side, as David Howard '09 triumphed in the shot put. Howard has been one of the top performers all season for the men's side, which struggled to a seventh-place finish at Heps. Howard also picked up fifth for the Bears in the weight throw.

The women were aided by four other second-place finishes. On the track, Samantha Adelberg '11 received Second Team All-Ivy honors for the 800-meter run and Smita Gupta '08 received the same in the 3,000-meter run. In the field, Danielle Grunloh '10 and Grace Watson '11 both finished second as well.
