Quotes from head track & field coach Rick McGuire
On the men's team
"I thought that we maxed on the number of points we could have scored today. Every point we could have scored, we did."
On the men's weight throw
"I think it went the way we thought it would go. We had four of the top throwers in the nation there, including the collegiate record holder in the weight (Kansas senior Scott Russell). For us to go two-three-four is pretty awesome. I am thrilled with it. I am thrilled that Russ (Bell) automatically qualified. The throwers did their job today."
On Adam MacDowell's fifth place finish in the 5000m run
