2005 USA champion Kristin Heaston won her second national title in the women’s shot put with a personal-best throw of 18.74m/61-5.75. Jillian Camarena was second with 18.50m/60-8.5, and Sarah Stevens third in 18.02m/59-1.5.

USA indoor men’s triple jump champion Aarik Wilson added the outdoor title to his career highlights, jumping 17.06m/55-11.75 (+1.7mps). Lawrence Willis was second with 16.97m/55-8.25, and 2004 Olympian Kenta Bell was third with 16.87m/55-4.25. Wilson and Bell both have the A standard, and Walter Davis has a bye as the defending World Champion.

NCAA runner-up Michael Robertson of Stanford was a surprise winner in the men’s discus with a best throw of 64.04m/210-1. Although he does not have the IAAF “A” standard, the next three finishers do. Ian Waltz was second with 63.60m/208-8, Jarred Rome was third with 63.56m/208-6, and Adam Kuehl was fourth with 59.52m/195-3.

In the lone junior event of the day, Pan Am Race Walk Cup bronze medalist Lauren Forgues of Maine Racewalkers easily won the women’s 10,000m race walk in 51:49.96. Le’erin Voss was second in 53:46.42
