Here at Coe, we have a friendly rivalry with the school across the river, Cornell College. Unfortunately, last season was Cornell's last season in our athletic conference, which means that we do not get to face them at the conference meet at the end of our season. Instead, Coe and Cornell's athletic departments decided to create this athletic cup, named after Baron Bremner, who was a legendary coach and athletic director at both Coe and Cornell. This is the first year that the Cup is being competed for, so of course, here at Coe, we really want to win it. This past weekend, our track teams competed against Cornells for the Bremner cup points in track, and it was nice to have such a competitiveness at such an early season meet. It was nice to see our leaders step up, run their best, and be able to contribute to a victory over Cornell on the men's side. Great performances came from all across the board, with senior Andrew Dewar winning the 5k, junior Shea Devine winning the Mile, and Eric Ritter winning the Shot Put and Weight Throw. Our women ran great as well, improving on their times from Dubuque, and competing all the way with Cornell. I am so excited to keep watching this team grow, and hopefully be able to return from injury soon!
Until the Next Adventure, Ryan Rey
