Boston Marathon scene in Wellesley

Wellesley's downtown is the race's halfway point -- a significant psychological mark for runners. But before they get there they pass one of the highlights of the course, the so-called 'Scream Tunnel,' a wall of sound kept up all race long by the students and faculty at Wellesley College. Click through this gallery to see scenes from the last 15 years of the tunnel. Left: Wellesley College student Lee Ung waits for kisses from runners as she cheers them on.
