CANTON, N.Y. - Both the Rensselaer men's and women's indoor track & field team came away with four-point victories at the Liberty League Championships, as a number of student-athletes turned in strong performances. 

Both sides beat out St. Lawrence for the title, with the men winning with 178 points and the women totaling 182. Leading the way on the women's side was sophomore Morgan Danner (McLean, VA/Langley) who was named Most Outstanding Field Performer. She won the pole vault at a height of 3.05 meters, the long jump (5.22 m), finished third in the triple jump (10.22 m) and helped the 4x200 relay team to second place. Sophomore Stephanie Bardon (Olney, MD/Our Lady of Good Counsel) finished first in the 800-meter run in 2:25.23 and aided the Engineers' distance medley relay team to a victory.

On the men's side, senior Kyle Barden (Poughkeepsie, NY/Spackenkill) had a strong meet, winning both the 400 and 200-meter dash events. He also anchored the Engineers victorious 4x200 relay team that set a Liberty League record time of 1;32.43. Junior Alec Marshall (Wayne, NJ/Wayne Valley) took first place in the 55-meter hurdles

Rensselaer is back in action next Saturday when both squads take part in the Cornell Invitational.
