What a special weekend for the program. The guys stepped up huge and put together an incredible meet. Check http://www.gophersports.com/ for pretty solid coverage of the meet (pictures, results, etc). As you probably know already - the team won the Big Ten team title going away... we put down 160.50 points. Ohio State was second with 112.50.
Individual Big Ten Champs include Aaron Studt in both weight and shot put, Ben Peterson in pole vault, Harun Abda in the 600m, Ben Blankenship in the mile and RJ McGinnis in the heptathlon.
--Ben Peterson won the vault on his final attempt.
--Aaron Studt won both the shot and weight on his final attempts.
--RJ trailed going into the final event.
--Blankenship took the lead with 200m to go.
GAMERS!
--Harun on the other hand just kicked the hell out of everyone. SO BORING! :)
There were too many outstanding performance to mention! I will put up video of the individual Big Ten Champions as they become available. Here are a few...
