BRONX, N.Y. — The women's race has finished and Princeton senior Liz Costello has won her third straight Heps championship by a wide margin, finishing more than 17 seconds ahead of the competition. The Stafford, Pa., native becomes the first three-time women's champion since Harvard's Kate Wiley won in 1982, 1983 and 1984.

Remarkably, Princeton runners took the top five places, becoming the first League team — men's or women's — to score a perfect 15 points as sophomore Alex Banfich, junior Sarah Cummings, junior Ashley Higginson and senior Reilly Kiernan followed Costello in.

Harvard, led by junior Claire Richardson's sixth-place showing, was second, just ahead of host Columbia. Brown senior Ariel Wright finished seventh and joined the five Tigers runners and Richardson on the Ivy League first team this year.
