TOP PERFORMANCES

Paige Sommers and Gemma Tutton opened the day's slate in the women's pole vault, which was moved to Friday morning due to inclement weather conditions on Thursday. Sommers finished the event with a final clearance of 3.80m (12-5.50 feet).
Over in the men's high jump, Allen registered a mark of 2.04m (6-8.25 feet). He passed on the first height before clearing the next one on his first attempt.
Keehan, the Blue Devils' final competitor of the day, ran 9:02.85 in the men's 3000m steeplechase.
