W. Track using Cornell to prepare for Relays

In the final meet before Penn Relays, Cornell comes to Franklin Field tomorrow for a dual meet with the Penn women's track team. Cornell is the defending indoor track season champions. "You have to be good in everything to be a champ," assistant coach Tony Tenisci said. "They don't have any weak spots." With such a formidable opponent and the many injuries, coach Betty Costanza is not optimistic about Penn's chances. "I don't think we're deep enough in the throwing areas. But we won't allow them to roll over us," she said. Penn and Cornell compete once a year during the outdoor season, alternating sites. Cornell has been victorious for the last four years. According to Tenisci, Penn's priority is for its injured athletes to get better. Anyone who is not 100 percent, he said, will not compete. Belsley, one of the injured athletes, will return for Penn Relays and is confident that most other people will soon return. "We're coping well. We're being a little careful. But when the big meets come around we'll be there. We'll be ready," she said. Costanza added that co-captain Maggie Morrow, who won has four consecutive meets in either the 3,000 meters or the 5,000, will not compete in either of those events. Instead, she will participate in the half mile and 1,500 meters in order to practice her speed.
