As the lone Cal Poly jumper at the meet, junior Melody Nwagwu made sure to represent, capturing first in the women's triple jump with a season best (40-0.5). She is currently No. 7 all-time at Cal Poly in the event.
Freshman Taylor Hofland tossed a personal best in the women's shot put (41-7.25), while junior Corban Payne grabbed fourth in the elite division of the men's shot put (55-7.75). Sophomore Rory Devaney earned sixth in the men's discus (166-11).
