Northwestern kicked off its indoor track season on a high note, nabbing a flurry of individual accolades at Friday’s Aurora Grand Prix. Junior Ava Earl and sophomore Skye Ellis led their squad from the front, as the pair earned first-place finishes in the one-mile and 3000-meter races, respectively.
