Harvard's excellent two-mile relay team is in a position that also reflects the bind. In the Boston K of C Meet that opened the Eastern indoor season, the quartet of Jeff Huvelle, Jim Baker, Dave McKelvey and Trey Burns obliterated the Harvard record by 7 seconds with a 7:33.6 time that stood up for a time as the second best in the country.
