The Deerfield squad came out in force for their first scored meet of the season, with 35 DA runners at the line when the gun went off. Many members of the team ran their first ever 5k today, and the coaches are extremely proud of them. Every athlete raced hard over the rolling hills, with Nicole Lefavour ‘27 coming in fifth overall and getting a season best time, despite the more challenging terrain. Just behind Nicole was Jane Bannon ‘26, followed closely by the formidable pack of Margot Harris ‘29, Stella Frankel ‘27, Maura Glynn ‘28, Liesel Stitch ‘28, and Tatum Glynn ‘27. Hotchkiss were just a little quicker off the line, and so DAGXC closely lost out on first place, but our runners handily beat Miss. Porter’s and Berkshire. We’re looking forward to taking what we learned from this race to St. Paul’s next weekend!
