Sophomore Andrew Knieper had a career-best weight throw toss of 12.68m, good for eighth place.

The women also went first-and-second in an event, with sophomore Chloie Musta (Mesick, Mich.-Cadillac) and graduate student Tabatha Walford (Northamptonshire, England-Bishop Stopford-Nevada) meeting that mark in the 800m. In addition to the distance runners, the Eagle sprinters and hurdlers had strong outings.
