Bangor's Anna Connors moved up in distance this winter to have the chance to compete. A year ago Connors finished third in the Class A 200m running 26.34, and 59.61 as a freshman. On Saturday Connors let Orono's Eleanor Tyne set the pace before using her speed to nab the victory in 2:29.45 while Tyne was second in 2:30.33.

Connors spoke to MileSplit about the season and final race, "This season has definitely been a different experience. I was glad to be able to compete even though it was an unfamiliar distance. As for the meet last Saturday it was a challenge with the snow and masks but everyone has adapted well."
