 And Vermonter Ellie St. Pierre returned to track and field last night looking to continue her run at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials. St. Pierre took first place in her heat in the opening round of the women's 1500 meter with New Balance teammate Emily Mackay finishing right behind her. St. Pierre advanced to tonight's semifinal with the heat win. The Montgomery native has already booked her spot in this summer's Paris Olympics after running the fastest quality time in meet history.
