South Dakota freshman Chris Nilsen won the pole vault with the highest clearance in the nation this season, with his vault of 18-8.25 (5.70m), while SIU-Edwardsville’s Julian Harvey took the national lead and beat former list-leader Holloway in the long jump, 26-5.5 to 25-8.75.

Texas A&M’s Fred Kerley won the 400 meters in a nation-leading 45.02, which ranks fourth all-time on the collegiate list, and aided the Aggies' 4x400 relay team to the second-fastest time in the country this season with their 3:03.50 performance at the Clemson Tiger Paw meet.
