In the 800m run, senior Scott Bradley (Battle Creek, Mich. – Lakeview) posted a top-10 finish, taking eighth after crossing the finish line in 1:50.69. Moving to the 1500m run, redshirt sophomore Kieran Reilly (Dover, Great Britain - Dover Grammar School for Boys) finished 12th, clocking in with a personal-best time of 3:51.95, while fellow redshirt sophomore Mitch Lenneman (River Falls, Wis. – River Falls) turned in a time of 3:54.55
Senior Jeff Elam (Latrobe, Pa. – Grater Latrobe Senior) continued his fantastic trip, taking the silver in the 400m hurdles with a time of 52.26. Also running in the race was sophomore Mark Cooke (Edison, N.J. – John P. Stevens), who finished the race in 54.57.
Freshman Cameron Hart (Columbus, Ohio – Bishop Hartley) represented EMU in both the high jump and the long jump, placing ninth and 14th. The Columbus, Ohio native posted marks of 2.05 meters/ 6 feet 8.75-inches, which was a personal-best, and 7.05 meters/ 23 feet 1.75-inches, respectively. Finally, junior Quinn Levering (Caledonia, Ohio – River Valley) took part in the shot put and the discus.
