Freshmen Nicole Cochran and Kailyn Kuzmuk, along with sophomores Hilary May and Jamie Olson, rounded out the scoring for the young team, maintaining a tight pack between 50th and 60th en route to Harvard’s best team finish since 1997. “[The race] went really well,” Richardson said. “People were ready to come back and race hard after Heps, and we just wanted...
