Looking ahead: A very strong rising senior class will look to lead the Fords back up the conference ranks as each of the Haverford's All-Centennial Conference performers with the exception of Elizabeth Reikowski return for at least one more track & field season. Katie Sullivan, Claire Sargent, and Nicole Giannetti are all a part of that talented class which also features All-American Amelia Keyser-Gibson. Rising juniors Taylor Murphy and Emily Anderson also add all-conference accolades to the team while Unique Tuberville broke a school record during her rookie campaign.
