Husky track and field had its field day Sunday as the women's side won the Dartmouth Invitational in Hanover, N.H., while the men's side took second, coming in behind Dartmouth.

"Everyone contributed to Dartmouth," said head coach Sherman Hart. "We went up and did what we were supposed to do and the winning took care of itself."

On the women's side, sophomore Consandria Walker and junior Olivia Kalinowska won the triple jump and pole vault events, respectively. Senior Tramaine Shaw came out strong and placed second in the 60-meter hurdles and in the pentathlon.

NU then won both the 4 x 200-meter and 4 x 400-meter relay events and placed second in the distance medley.

The men's side featured a pair of notable performances, as sophomore Jordan Thull won the pole vault while fellow sophomore Adrian Li won the high jump event.

Friday, the Huskies will compete in the Reebok Boston Indoor Games, which will take place at the Reggie Lewis Center in Roxbury starting at 4 p.m.
