Nathan Fields (Westminster, Md.) joined his teammate by sporting a pair of medals to bring home to Kings Point, grabbing the silver plus a PR in the shot put (14.11m) and bronze for the discus (35.13m).
 
Isaac Clark (Weddington, N.C.) torched the competition en route to winning the 1,500m run, speeding around the track in an even four minutes (4:00.00).
 
The third to land in first place was Lance Clemons (Westlake, Ohio), doing so in the 800m at a clip of 1:58.33.
 
The 800m run itself scored the Blue and Gray a total of 24 points as Silas Glynn (Folsom, Calif.) was the runner-up with a 1:59.18 while Alex Burita (Annandale, Va.) ended up in the top-five registering a 2:04.86.
 
Corey Haney (Medina, Ohio) put a nice bow on a highly successful field day, taking the last podium spot by tallying third in the pole vault (3.75m).
 
One final medalist came off the legs of Isaiah Sims (Sunnyvale, Texas), whose 49.28-second 400m gave him a silver medal while Jason Healey King George, Va.) crossed the tape two spots behind him in fourth for his 52.02, both personal-record times.
