...Stephens the bronze had to be a light disappointment, since his 52.8 time was a second off the personal record he set last weekend at the GBC's. Had he matched that 51.8 time, set at B.C., he would have eclipsed Princetonian Peter Arduino, who copped the event...

Perhaps the most memorable of all the thinclad performances at the GBC did not, however, win any gold. Still plagued with the Achilles tendon problems that have prevented him from competing for months, team co-captain John Murphy ran the 10,000 meters in the drizzle Saturday and the 5000 meters Sunday. Murphy, who asked to run the 10,000 since otherwise the Crimson would go unrepresented in the event, took fourth place with a time of 30:57.9 and thereby added two points to the Crimson tally. The performance appeared all the more incredible because the only training Murphy...
