The Syracuse Orange track and field teams headed for warmer climates over the weekend. While the sprint and hurdle group went to Texas, the distance squad went to Stanford to face some tough competition early in the season.
Senior Amanda Vestri turned in the top performance of the weekend in the 10k at Stanford. Her time of 32:08.6 was good for 3rd place and was just a second off Paige Stoner’s school record. Vestri’s time is the 16th-best in NCAA history in the event and she’s marked herself as an athlete to watch as we move through the outdoor season.
