Ty Anderson ran a pair of provisional qualifying times on Friday.  He was clocked at 6.77 in the prelims and improved to 6.76 in the finals of the men's 60m to place fifth. He also placed fourth with a lead of 6.98m (22-10.75) in the men's long jump.
 
Trenden Collins and Jaxon Russell both cleared 1.94m (6-4.50) to tie for fourth in the men's high jump.
