Alba Viñals Calixto (Arinsal, Andorra/Escola Andorrana de Segona Ensenyança d'Ordino) posted personal bests in the 400m (55.93) and 400m hurdles (59.98), breaking the one-minute barrier and moving into EMU's all-time top 10 No. 8 spot in the hurdles, after earning her spot in the top 10 at spot No. 10 earlier this season with a time of 1:00.23.
On the men's side Jake McEachern (Lloydminster, Alberta/Lloydminster Comprehensive) won the hammer throw with a personal-best 64.29m (210-11), climbing to No. 6 in school history and earning a No. 51 DI national rank.
