2009 Season Preview


2009 Pomona-Pitzer Women's Track & Field

Pomona-Pitzer's women's track and field team is in the starting blocks for the 2009 season. "We're looking forward to starting practices in mid-January, and then starting our competitive season in mid-February," said Head Coach Kirk Reynolds. "Our coaching staff has a season's worth of great
workouts planned. It's going to be a terrific season."

The Sagehens look to improve on their fifth place finish in SCIAC last season. The squad will be led by All-SCIAC returnees Connie Cheng (100, 200, Long Jump, Triple Jump) and Ellie Chestnut (Hammer and Javelin).

"We have some strong veterans returning to the team," continued Coach Reynolds. "And we're excited about some newcomers to the team who will really make an immediate impact at the conference level and beyond."

Pomona-Pitzer begins practices January 20, and will host its season opening College All-Comers meet on the blue Strehle Track on February 21.
