PRINCETON, N.J. – As Andie Murray crossed the finish line at Weaver Stadium, her arms flew into the air before her hands met her face in excitement and shock. In that moment, she closed out her final Ivy League Championship with a title in the 800m.

Surrounded by her teammates and the Dartmouth track and field staff, she explained to ESPN that she has always believed in herself despite past results.

"I have a whole team of girls that have always believed in me. This win is just as much theirs as it is mine. I'm so happy." Murray said. "My coaches, they have always believed in me, and it's hard to find, so I'm really lucky."

Racing in lane five, Murray kept a steady pace before becoming neck and neck with Columbia's Lucy Henkel in the back stretch. In the home stretch, Murray surged past Henkel and Princeton's Olivia Martin to become the Ivy League Champion of the 800m with a final time of 2:04.23.

I'm proud of this team and the heart they have shown," Mike Nelson, the Marjorie & Herbert Chase '30 Director of Dartmouth Track & Field and Cross Country, said.
