The Syracuse Orange indoor track teams were in action over the weekend to start the season.
The team split between two meets with the sprint/hurdle group at Cornell and the distance group at Boston University.

Amanda Vestri made her return to action with a new Syracuse school record in the 5000 with a 15:42.48. This broke the existing record by Paige Stoner, who was busy this weekend winning the US Marathon Championships in a course record time of 2:26:01 (Congrats to Paige and fellow Orange alum Maegan Krifchin who was 7th in 2:29.
