"We don't have a large roster but everyone who competed did a great job today. I am super proud of the entire group. It was awesome to lead off the day by placing four runners in the Top 6 of the 3000m. All four guys ran PR times in a terrific team run. Bobby Harris just continued to shine in the high jump picking up another conference title. I was really proud of our DMR as freshman Sem Sultanov ran a swift opening leg and handed off to another freshman George Escobar. Cristian Acuna did well in the third leg and then Fynn Timm brought it home with a great anchor leg in the Mile." -- Head coach Jeff Pigg
