Medford, Mass. - The Colby Men's and Women's Track & Field teams collided with the NESCAC's best this past weekend at Tufts University for the NESCAC Championships, coming away with four event winners and seven All-Conference awards en route to a sixth place team finish for the women and seventh place for the men.
