ITHACA, N.Y. – Highlighted by nine event titles, Harvard track & field wrapped up its time at the 2025 Ivy League Heptagonal Indoor Track & Field championships with a stellar Sunday afternoon at Barton Hall.

The women's team finished in second place with 160 points, just 8 points behind first place Princeton. The men finished in fifth place with 62 points.

In the sprint finals, Harvard shined. The women's 60m hurdles saw the Crimson claim the top-two spots, as junior Fabiola Belibi won her first Ivy League title in the event. A native of Englewood, Colorado, Belibi posted a time of 8.34, a new lifetime best.

Moments later, first-year LeRoy Horton stunned the crowd at Barton Hall, winning the men's 60m Ivy League title with a time of 6.76, just a hair off of matching his collegiate-best 6.75 from earlier this season.

Harvard found more success on the track in the women's 400m. A native of Suwanee, Georgia, senior Chloe Fair won her second Ivy League title in the event, doing so with a time of 53.53 in the final.

History was made in the women's 500m, as senior Victoria Bossong became the first student-athlete in Ivy League history to win the event four years in a row. Running in the second heat, Bossong posted a time of 1:09.39, a new facility record. A native of Cumberland Foreside, Maine, Bossong holds the Ivy League record in the women's 500m.

Moving over to the distance events, junior Molly Malague reached a career milestone in the women's 5000m, winning her first Ivy League individual title. Malague was dominant in her run to gold, posting a time of 16:10.32, beating out second place by a staggering 13 seconds.

Two women's relays took home first place, each setting new facility records in the process. Bossong, joined by sophomore Sophia Gorriaran, first-year Ella Cooper, and junior Penelope Salmon, pushed the women's distance medley relay to an Ivy League title with a time of 11:16.49. Bossong, Fair, sophomore Marta Amani, and junior Mfoniso Andrew combined to win the women's 4x400m relay with a time of 3:39.44.

Individually, senior Kenneth Ikeji is the Men's Most Outstanding Field Athlete, while senior Izzy Goudros won the Women's Most Outstanding Track Athlete award.
