Kilgore Smashes Record to Highlight Regis Classic Success

 WESTON, Mass.—Junior Damon Kilgore (Londonderry, N.H.) obliterated the program record in the men's 5,000 to highlight the Fighting Scot effort at the inaugural Regis Spring Classic on Friday evening. Gordon put together eight podium performances between the two programs and saw many personal highs scattered throughout the lineup in the first outdoor event for the teams.
 
The usual suspects were up to their standout performances on the women's side as well as Corrine Previte (Danvers, Mass.) won the 200m race to begin the day with a time of 26.64. She followed up the showing with a bronze finish in the 400m at 1:01.59. In the same race, newcomer Mackenzie Hinds (Higganum, Conn.) turned in fifth place.
 
Gordon's top distance runners grabbed second in each of the mile and two-mile races. Kayla Kroning (Tuxedo Park, N.Y.) finished the mile just a bit above five minutes, while Julia Drewicke (San Francisco, Calif.) barely lost to Sarah Halabe from Wellesley in by a second in the two-mile. Angie Epplett  (Uxbridge, Mass.) concluded a successful distance day with third in the 5,000m at 19:26.
 
Men's senior Dan Simonds (Bristol, R.I.) led the pace in the 1,500m first heat, but it was good enough to edge teammate Jack Gilbert (Potomac, Md.) for third overall in the event.
 
Kilgore kept the distance them alive with a dominant showing in the 5,000m, beating the previous Gordon record by 21 seconds at 15:26.58. The record had stood for eight spring seasons.
 
Gordon will head to New London, Connecticut next weekend for the Silfen Invitational put on by Connecticut College.
