Justin Lewis picked up a victory in the men’s 400-meter dash with a converted time of 47.67, which puts him third all-time in the history of the program.
Dual sport athlete Isaiah Diego-Williams, who is coming off a Big Sky Championship football season, finished the 60-meter dash in a converted time of 6.90. That mark puts him sixth all-time in the history of SUU.
Erik Ostrom set a personal best in the men’s heptathlon, finishing in second place with a score of 4,755. That score puts him fifth all-time in the SUU record book.
