Men led by outstanding performances from RdShrt Fr Marshall Kambestad in the 3,000 meter race and Jr. Nick Schanaman in the 60-meter hurdles.

Women led by Soph (transfer from Colorado State) Jennie Mack and a school-record-setting in the 20-lb weight throw (Mack was the top collegiate performer in the event which was won by an unattached athlete). The SDSU sprinters looked very strong, too.

I had a fun time up there and even saw chad greenway at the meet. I did not think there track was anything special (not even close to being as nice as mankato's) and consession food was way too expensive ($2.50 for a bag of m&m's).
