After setting personal-records and shattering the Princeton record book yesterday in the 60m hurdles preliminaries, Ellie Randolph (8.513) and Isabella Hilditch (8.516), again, ran fantastic again. Randolph's time matched her personal-best from yesterday while Hilditch broke her personal-best. The two finished fifth and sixth respectively to pick up three points for the Tigers.Check out the Women's DMR group had to say about winning the #IvyHeps title ...
