Junior Men's Pole Vault winner - Scott Roth
"I was kind of in a rut, I was not jumping well. This might be my best meet of the season.
I was happy, even though I did not make the record. I was ready for good solid
competition and a good performance, and I got it."


Junior Women's Triple Jump winner - Ke'Nyia Richardson
"I was not jumping well early on and it kind of scared me. But, I came back
on my last jump and I was relieved. I've done better, and I can do better, luckily it was
good enough to win today."

Junior women's pole vault winner - Tori Anthony
"I wasn't expecting to have to compete twice (with the rain delay). I just treated it like
prelims and everything was good. I'm very excited to go to China (for the
World Junior Championships)."

Wood had only two weeks of training in preparation for the age

positive attitude in each event.’’

Bo Taylor - Diego Mercado


Shana Woods

Bo Taylor - junior men's discus champion
"It feels awesome. There was pretty good wind, it kept changing direction.
Any wind is good wind."

Natasha LaBeaud - junior women's 5,000 meter champion
I have been planning for this, and when I didn't make it to nationals (NCAA),
I needed to do something. Sometimes the heat overtakes me, I am surprised
how hot it can get. I keep thinking 'How bad so you want this?' and just keep
going.

Diego Mercado - junior men's 10,000 meter champion
The humdity played a part, it made it feel like we were running 66-68 seconds.
It was my first 10,000 meters ever. It was phenomenal, I felt great. These are
the meets that I look forward to every year. I had to play it cool and be patient.
Now I know patience is a virtue.
