NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Southern Connecticut State University women's indoor track and field team continues to be well-represented among the NCAA Division II leaders through meets completed this past weekend.

The distance medley relay team of Jaclyn Sullivan (Lisbon, Conn.), Sarah Hill (Rockville, Conn.), Titlayo Vanriel (Hartford, Conn.) and Alasia Griebel (Bristol, Conn.) is now fifth in their event thanks to a finish two weeks ago at the Albany Great Dane Classic.

Senior Courtni Walker (Uniondale, N.Y.), sophomore Kimberly Johnson (Lisbon, Conn.) and freshman Brittany Brown (Mount Vernon, N.Y.) also rank among the NCAA Division II leaders in their respective events. Johnson ranks seventh in the pole vault, Brown currently ranks seventh in the high jump and Walker is 11th in the 60 meter dash.
