GROTON - The weather was far from ideal, but track and field athletes were just happy to be outdoors competing during the Rob Luecke Invitational on Tuesday. While the sun was out, a strong breeze and below normal temps did not supply optimal conditions. Still, athletes enjoyed having an opportunity to continue their seasons. "We’re just grateful to be here. There’s so many (meets) getting canceled and rescheduled and postponed," said Roncalli senior Ella Ulmer. "It might be a little chilly, but it’s nice to be able to get out and get going." The weather did impact Ulmer on her way to winning the 100-meter hurdles, one of the first events of the afternoon. "It is still cold. I was having a hard time getting my steps right today," Ulmer said. "I was trying to three-step and it was just not working. And I’m like, 'Yep, I’m a little cold today.' I just had to stick to four-stepping, but it worked out all right." Ulmer also ran on the winning 800-meter relay squad
