NECTC Westchester Triathlon - Team Summary

By: Aaron Perelman

The second Triathlon of the NECTC season kicked off in Rye, New York, on September 25th, 2011. Stevens came into the triathlon with the number one ranked team in the overall men and women categories. The dominant placement is thanks to the ducks owning three of the top four individual places for men and the number one spot for individual women. Eleven athletes competed for Stevens, determined to tighten the strangle hold on the rest of the conference.

The men competed with nine athletes, led by Joe Huyett. Joe finished 2^nd of NECTC competitors. His time of 2:04:26 blew away his previous time by over six minutes. The dominant showing was aided by his number one swim and number seven run out of all 1011 competitors. The other Stevens men, Mathew Smith, Nick Walulik, and Evan Wilson, followed with top 20 finishes. The day’s excellent performances rewarded the men with a second place team finish behind Army. The Second place finish strengthens Stevens position at the top of the leader board.

Two women competed in the Westchester Triathlon for Stevens and carved out two of the top four places for NECTC women. Amanda Nauman assumed her usual position on the podium with a 3^rd place finish and a time of 2:19:53. Upon last report, Amanda has had to rent separate storage space to stockpile all of her trophies. Jamie Brabston finished 4^th out of all the NECTC Women. Jamie and Amanda are making a strong push for best female team in the conference.

The Stevens Triathlon Team came away from the Westchester Triathlon with hardened hopes for finishing top in the conference by season’s end. Next week’s triathlon, MightyMan, is the conference championships, which brings double points. Stevens trains for competition and prepares for glory. GO DUCKS
