Ed Brennen The night before the biggest race of her life â the final of the womenâs mile at the 2021 NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships in Fayetteville, Arkansas â UMass Lowellâs Kaley Richards spelled out her goal in her journal.
âI wrote that I wanted to finish in the top eight and be an All-American,â says Richards, a Lowell native and Manning School of Business graduate student who had already become the first River Hawk to ever qualify for the Division I indoor championships.Â
Competing against runners from big-time programs such as Arkansas, Ohio State and Colorado, Richards achieved her goal by finishing fourth with a personal best time and new school record of 4 minutes, 36.26 seconds â becoming UMLâs first-ever indoor Division I All-American.
