    BOSTON, Mass. — The Endicott women's track and field team broke three school records at the NCAA Division III New England Championships on Sunday evening, hosted by the TRACK at new balance. 

    Julia Maclaine (North Easton, Mass.), Kaylee Whitney (Milford, Mass.), Brianna am Ende (Coventry, R.I.), and Hannah Shepard (Keene, N.H.) highlighted the Gulls' efforts by smashing the school record in the 4x400-meter relay.

    The group ran a time of 4:14.47 (15th overall/23 entrants) to break the previous record by 5.21 seconds (4:19.68, 2/25/23).

    Maclaine opened the relay with a team-best leg of 1:02.43, while Whitney, am Ende, and Shepard followed with splits of 1:04.37, 1:04.16, and 1:03.11. 

    ADDITIONAL SCHOOL RECORDS

    In the distance medley relay (DMR), Whitney and am Ende combined with Allie Devoe (Ridgefield, Conn.) and Alexa Suchy (Guilford, Conn.) to run a school record time of 13:15.38 (17th overall/22 teams).

    Splits for the Gulls' DMR included: Devoe (1200m, 4:02.52), Whitney (400m, 1:04.40), am Ende (800m, 2:34.44), Suchy (1600m, 5:33.22).

    The quartet bettered the previous record by 10.55 seconds (13:25.93, 2023 New England's). 

    Devoe and am Ende were members of last season's DMR school record group.

    Meanwhile, Shepard rounded out the list of school record performances in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:26.10 (banked track record).
