WILLIAMSBURG, VA – Freshman Deborah Boerke continued her record-breaking 2016, leading the Marist College women's track team at the Colonial Relays, held at the College of William and Mary.

Boerke broke her week-old school record in the 400-meter hurdles, placing fourth in the event in 1:02.60. This betters her school record by 0.02, which she set a week earlier at Raleigh Relays. She was the highest individual finisher on the weekend. In addition, her mark is an ECAC qualifier and is currently the fastest time posted by any athlete in the MAAC.

The weekend was filled with personal-best times for the women's track team at the early season meet. Among them: Christine Coughlin (10:29.73 in the 3,000-meter run), Kerry Gaye and Roxy Novo (4:57.91 and 4:58.54 in the 1,500 run), Shea Bohan (2:21.20 in the 800 run), Bianca Luparello, Lizzy Peper, Kerri-Anne Flynn (19:17.44, 19:30.66 and 19:33.24 in the 5,000 run) and Mara Schiffhauer and Janelle Solviletti (4:44.6, and 4:41.8 in the 6,000-meter relay).

The women's track team returns to action on Saturday at the Metropolitan Championships at Rutgers University.
