Columbia College sophomore Kyle Merber opened his indoor track season later than most—just three weeks ago, Feb. 6, at the New Balance Collegiate Invitational—and has competed only twice. But those outings alone were sufficient to grab the attention of the Ivy League and the larger NCAA. His 8:09.01 3k debut currently tops the league, as does his 4:02.60 mile from the Virginia Duals on Feb. 13.

Records abounded this weekend at the Armory, as the Columbia track and field team completed a successful dry run for the Heptagonal Championships. The Lions will abstain from any further competition until that meet, which will take place at Dartmouth’s Nathaniel Leverone Fieldhouse, Feb. 27-28.
