Battle in Beantown was today.
In a bit of a surprise for me, Harvard women was the top Ivy squad (7th place) as Harvard's #1, Courtney Smith, was the top Ivy finisher over Dartmouth's Dana Giordano by over 12 seconds. Brown's Natalie Schrudowitz made it 3 Ivy women in the top 10. Dartmouth was one of four nationally ranked teams in the field, so I wonder how their ranking will be after this week as the Big Green team finished 8th in the team standings.

In the men's race, Cornell's Ben Rainero was the top Ivy with a 5th place finish, and from what I've seen in pictures, he was running near the front with the Syracuse and Purdue front runners. He's really having a good start to the season. Curtis King also finished in the top 10 (8th overall), helping Dartmouth to a 2nd place team finish. The only national ranked teams in the men's field were #3 Syracuse and #26 Florida State.
