By the end of the Outdoor season, Siilats had faded out of the NCAA picture, but Gyorffy was blowing the nation away. Her outdoor personal-best leap of 1.96 meters was the second-best jump in the world at the time. At NCAA Outdoors last Sunday, she was looking to achieve a longtime goal of clearing two meters.

Although she is better known for her high jump proficiency, Gyorffy also finished ranked among the nation's top 20 in the triple jump during the spring. Along with sophomore Helena Ronner-who placed fifth at Outdoor ECACs in May-the Crimson had the best triple jump contingent in the Ivies.

Among the Crimson underclassmen, junior Nicky Grant made the greatest breakthroughs this season, soaring to the top of the league in the weight throw during the indoor season and the hammer during the spring. A school-record, second-place 18.20-meter performance at Indoor ECACs highlighted her season.

Grant led a strong contingent of throwers, which included several promising freshmen-namely Breeanna Gibson, Johanna Doyle, and Alexandra Petrone-who all scored at Heps.

In the longer distances, the Crimson did not fare nearly as well. The cross-country team-captained by Senta Burton-placed eighth out of nine teams at Heps, led by junior Leann Hymas. During the indoor and outdoor seasons, sophomore Melissa Tanner was the only cross-country runner to score at Heps.

Harvard will be hard-pressed to finish at the top of the Heptagonal tally next season with record-breaking athletes like Schutte, Taylor and Gyorffy departing at the end of the season. The achievements of these 2001 Crimson seniors will be the benchmark of Harvard teams for years to come.
