Killer DQ for the Bowdoin women. Natalie Garre has the fastest lead off in the field and second fastest split overall. Their time was right with Amherst and on the bubble but I would have said qualifying for NCAAs
7:33 was the invite time last year. I think they would have made it easily. Will have to use composite times. I agree this was a bummer.
