SAINT PAUL, Minn. – The Gustavus women’s track & field team Friday claimed first place at Macalester’s Vanessa Seljeskog Classic, totaling 83 points. Bethel took second, Macalester placed third, and St. Catherine finished fourth. The Gusties took home eight first place finishes along with six second place finishes.

“Any time you can do that it shows that you not only have quality but depth as well,” Head Coach Dale Bahr said. “We’ve been working on that the last few years and its starting to pay off.
