Union freshman Noemie Bechu broke a school record in the 200 meter dash at the RIT Track and Field Invitational on Saturday January 18. Bechu captured first place in the event with a time of 27.07. She broke the record previously set by Bridget Duffy (2008 graduate) in 2006. Her time qualifies her for the New York State Championships (NYSCTC) that will take place on February 28 in Canton. Her time is also just barely shy of the ECAC mark of 26.90. Bechu will look to improve on this time to qualify for the ECAC Championships to be held in Boston on March 7-8.
