NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- The Cornell men and women continued their stranglehold on the outdoor Heps, as both squads claimed the team championships at Yale this weekend. The women took home their seventh-straight outdoor Heps title (and 13 of the last 14 Heps track titles overall) and the men won their sixth-straight outdoor Heps title (and 10 of the last 12 Heps track titles overall).  It was an unbelievable weekend with the Cornell men putting together a meet of historical proportions, setting a meet record for most points (199) and the second-largest margin of victory ever, with a 75 point cushion over a very good Princeton team. On the women's side, the team showed remarkable poise in staging a tremendous comeback on Sunday afternoon, overcoming a deficit that had ballooned to as much as 51 points early in Sunday's program, before rolling to to a 165-141 victory over a strong Princeton squad.

With the win, the women's seventh consecutive outdoor Heps title matches the longest streak in men's or women's Heps history (indoor or outdoor), joining the outdoor men's teams from Penn of 1971-1977. It is the longest women's streak in league history.  The men's run of six straight outdoor Heps titles is the second most in men's Heps history, behind only the aforementioned Penn dynasty of the 1970s.
