Bunde also brought home gold in the high jump. Gavin Sloss took bronze in the 800-meter run. Andrew Mahaffey added another gold medal in the 1600-meter run. Treyton Schneider placed third for bronze in the 110-meter hurdles. Tate Fever earned gold and Jathan South bronze in the 400-meter hurdles. Preston Kent earned a silver medal in the 3200-meter run. Mike Fuller also tossed his way to two bronze medals, one in the shot put and the other in discus.
