Westfield State women's track and field won their second straight Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference outdoor track and field championship at the 2025 meet at the Swenson Athletic Complex in Bridgewater, Mass. on Friday, April 25.
The Owls won six events on the afternoon to out-point the rest of the league.
Westfield finished with 213 points to take the team title, 64 ahead of host Bridgewater State. Worcester State was third at 106, followed by Framingham (90) , Fitchburg (57) and Mass Maritime (8).
Eliza Lee won 800 hurdles 1:06.89. Lee won the triple jump with a mark of 11.27 meters and was second in the long jump with a personal best mark of 5.62 meters 18'-5.25"
Julianne Kelly topped the 3000 steeplechase, breaking the tape in 12:27.31.
Westfield won the 4x800 relay in a time of 10:11.87 for the quartet of Molly Lenehan, Molly Kennedy, Tealei Chandonnet and Reese Stevens
Emily Ottomaniello won the pole vault, as the lone contestant entered. She also scored points with a third-place finish in the triple jump.
Bronwyn Pinsly won the discus with a personal best mark of 38.83 meters, over four meters clear of her closest competition. Pinsly placed second in the shot put with a season outdoor best of 11.11 meters.
Westfield stacked up points in the 5000 meters, where Bridgewater's Naomi Cass won, but the Owls took places 2-6 to register 21 points in the event to the Bears' 10. The Owls were almost as present in the 1500, where the Owls claimed four of the six scoring finishes to tack on another 17 points.
Other strong scoring performances for the Owls included Delaney Parker's second in the 100 meters, Lee second in both the 200 and 400, and Stevens was second in the 800. Chandonnet took seconds in both the 1500 and 5000, and Devin Whalen was second in the 100 hurdles.
The Owls have won five straight titles in the running sports, sweeping cross country, indoor and outdoor track in '23-24 and cross country and outdoor track in '24-25 as this year's indoor championship was scuttled by a snowstorm and facility conflicts that prevented it being re-scheduled.
