Rothwell was once again a double winner as she claimed the top spot in both the 60m hurdles and the 200 Saturday in Dartmouth’s home tri-meet with Yale and Columbia at Leverone Field House. Rothwell just missed her own school record in winning the hurdles, crossing the line in 8.39, beating her competition by an astounding 36-hundredths of a second to pick up five team points in the final. Rothwell wasn’t done winning just one event either, as she would later go on to take the top spot in the 200m. The second-year standout ran a 24.38 to win by half a secondhttp://www.dartmouthsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=11600&ATCLID=211693947
