Abbey D’Agostino ’14 joined several fellow Olympians from New England in throwing a ceremonial first pitch at Fenway Park in Boston August 28. The distance runner, who
suffered injuries at the Rio games when she and New Zealand’s Nikki Hamblin tripped each other during a 5,000-meter race, tweeted, “Had such a…ball.” Both runners earned Fair Play awards from the International Olympic Committee after they helped each other up to finish the race. “I hope to be back to elite running in the spring,” says D’Agostino, who is now recuperating. “Right now, I’m living in the present, and it will be a long road to recovery.”
