        Kyle Rose (Kankakee) set the school record at 200 meters with a time of 22.30 breaking the old record of 22.61 set by Ryan Gold in 1999.
        Brian Taghon (East Moline) won both the mile and the 3,000-meter run. Taghon finished with a time of 8:31.68 in the 3000 and 4:15.70 the mile.
        Rose also was a double winner, placing first at 400 meters with a time of 49.18 and right. SIUE's Jonathan Bannister (Plano, Texas) was second at 49.28.
        Jeff Fearday (Teutopolis) placed first in the 600 meters with a time of 1:22.59. Cody Ellermeyer (DuQuoin) came in first in the 800 meters at 1:58.50.
