BOSTON -- Five time cross country and track All-American
Jesse Faller (Burlington, MA) was the lone Jumbo
to compete at the Carisella Invitational at Northeastern University
on Saturday afternoon, but he certainly represented the team
well.
Running in the 5,000 meters, Faller's 14:30.47 time was a new
school record and a provisional qualifying mark for the NCAA
Championships. Faller, who was fourth out of 53 entrants in
the race, removed Nate Brigham's five-year old time of 14:33.34
from the record book. He now holds three Tufts records, including
the 1,500 meters outdoors (3:51.08) and with the distance medley
relay indoors (9:59.33).
Just two weeks ago, Faller finished eighth at the 2009 NCAA
Division III Cross Country National Championship Race.
The rest of the Tufts team participated in the annual Alumni
Meet at the Gantcher Center on Saturday.
