Three years ago, rookie runner Mary Serdakowski stood atop the podium at the Ivy League championships after winning the 60-meter hurdles at the indoor Heptagonals. This past February, Serdakowski returned to the top with a victory that helped propel the Harvard women’s track and field team to a fourth-place finish at the meet.
In 2003, she won the event as a freshman, and this year, she beat out two runners from Cornell. Her qualifying time had been the fastest in the event, and her 8.85 in the finals proved as good. The two Big Red runners on her heels finished with times of 8.86 and 8.87, respectively.
With the points from her victory, the Crimson finished fourth at the Ivy Championship meet with 60 points as a team.
In the spring, Serdakowski won the 100-meter hurdles at the Yale dual meet to cap an impressive last season and follow through on the promise of her rookie campaign three years ago.
