Head coach Buck Green says “It was a nice day but windy.  Several good performances in spite of being a bit snakebit.  Emma Seibert a seemingly secured third place only to trip on last hurdle.  Losing Morgan Grubb to recurring injury led to last minute relay changes.  Tyler Grimes had big day with win in the 800 and 50.8 leg of the 4×400 relay to get second with Anthony Shivers, Davantae Frame, and Charlie Fisher. Thomas Peuster champion in the 3200, and Dante Kelley with a very improved jump in the triple were also stand outs. Maggie Ramsey was second in 3200 with PR . ALEX ROWAN WITH BIG PR IN 200 ALTHOUGH PLACING 4^TH.”
