The men’s and women’s track and field teams competed at the North Coast Athletic Conference Combined Events Championships last Saturday. The day saw several athletes put together impressive showings, headlined by College third-year Adriano Atallah and College fourth-year Christine Impara setting new school records in the heptathlon and pentathlon, respectively. Impara, whose 2,995-point day broke the previous school record of 2,984, felt that it was a culmination of all the hard work she has put into the sport.
“It’s been a long time coming for me,” Impara said. “To see the improvement that I have seen [since my first year] is very rewarding. I have had my eye on the school record for a while now and it is so gratifying and surreal in a way to have achieved that.”
Impara, Atallah, and the rest of the track and field teams will compete in the NCAC Conference Championships today and tomorrow at Denison University to conclude their indoor season. The teams will have about a month after that to prepare for their outdoor season, which will begin March 28 at The College of Wooster. For Impara, the rest of her senior year will be focused on helping the team and cherishing her final moments.
“My goal for myself is to score as many points as possible for our team and give everything I can to the competition,” said Impara. “I really want to appreciate every moment with this team and this sport.”

After setting the school record in her first ever collegiate meet with a time of 9.5960 seconds in the 60-meter hurdles, College first-year Chilly Wallace is at it again. At the Dr. William Taraschke Team Challenge at Baldwin Wallace University on Saturday, Wallace broke yet another school record when she ran a time of 8.92 seconds in the 55-meter hurdles. “After breaking two school records, I’m happy to know that this is only the beginning, and I’ll only continue to get better,” said Wallace. Students can see the team in action at Oberlin today at 5 p.m. at the Heisman Club Field House, or on April 4.
