Here's what head coach Jakin Anderson had to say about the event.

Anderson: "Great finish to the meet and the conference season for this group. We exceeded our point total from indoor, which is always a goal. We also had a few great performances in the hurdle final with Will Kaesermann placing fifth. We had a really solid day at jumps with Ben Halvorson getting third and round off his great weekend. There were plenty of PR's to go around, which was encouraging to see. Overall, it's been great to work with this group and see them grow over the year. I'm really proud of how everyone has handled things and been able to make adjustments as they come. Excited for the last few meets here to round out the season."
