New York City, N.Y.- Trinity College senior tri-captain Ryan Bak (Suffield, Conn.) set a new College record in the  800-meter runs to lead the Trinity College Bantams to a fifth-place finish in the Collegiate Track Conference Men's Indoor Track and Field Championships at the New York City Armory this weekend. Senior tri-captain Kate Klein (Huntington, Vt.) finished second in the 800-meter run with a personal0-best time of 2:20.00 to help the Bantam women finish fourth in the Women's Championships.

Bak broke his own school record with a time of 1:52.98 in the 800, while classmate Ryan Lerner (Manchester, Conn.) won the 5,000 meters with a time of 15:38.16.  Sophomore Christina Kane (Springfield, Mass.) finished second in the mile run at 5:09.50 for the Trinity women.
