Vermont freshman Sydney Greenidge from Riverside opened her college career with an impressive 60-meter dash Saturday.
Greenidge ran 7.93 and placed 3rd at Boston University’s Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener.
That’s the fastest time by a Vermont freshman since at least 2010, which is as far back as TFRRS goes. Vermont doesn’t have any top-10 lists on its web site.
Greenidged’s high school PR was a 7.62 for 55 meters in a meet this past January at Ursinus. That converts to an 8.31 for 60 meters, so you can see what a big-time performance this was. A 7.93 converts to 7.39 for 55 meters.
Greenidge is not listed on Vermont’s roster, so but it’s not the most common name so I’m assuming it’s the same one.
