Vrountas wins UMass Dartmouth Invitational
September 20, 2008
Dartmouth, MA
Redshirt freshman Teddy Vrountas was the overall champion as Northeastern placed eighth as a team at the UMass Dartmouth Invitational on Saturday in Dartmouth, Mass. Keene State won the meet with 85 points, Coast Guard was second with 115 and Amherst College came in third with 121.
"It was a good improvement since we raced at Central Connecticut State two weeks ago," said distance coach Renny Waldron. "I was happy with our performance and particularly impressed with our top three runners."
Vrountas ran a time of 25:04 for the win in just his second collegiate cross country race. He was among the leaders for the entire race and surged in the third and fourth miles to take the lead. Over the final mile, Southern Maine's Tyler Jasud closed in but Vrountas kicked in the final stretch to pull away for a two-second win.
The Huskies had two more runners break 26 minutes on the fast course - sophomore Andy Cazeau and freshman Sebastian Putzeys. Cazeau placed 38th in 25:52 and Putzeys was right behind in 39th at 25:54. Senior Bryan Brunelli was the fourth Husky across the line, taking 61st in 26:25 and senior Ryan Miling rounded out the Huskies' top five in 63rd with a time of 26:27. Junior Dan Clayton placed 75th in 26:42 and sophomore Matt Webber tok 95th in 27:06.
In the sub-varsity race, Northeastern freshman Mat Ridley took 75th in 28:22 and sophomore Evan Whetsell placed 100th in 28:55.
Northeastern is back in action Oct. 4 at the George Mason Invitational in Fairfax, Va. It will be a preview for the CAA Championship, which will be held on the same course.
