The fifth meet of the PVIAC indoor track season took place at Smith College on Sunday. All of Hampshire County’s indoor track teams except for South Hadley, which had its bye week, were in action during either the early or late meets.

Frontier, Hampshire and Northampton participated in the early meet while Amherst was the lone squad to compete in the late one as the sun set on a chilly Sunday in western Massachusetts.

Here’s how each team fared in its individual matchups:
