Ted Nelson said in a press
release that the event has
matured into one of the nation’s
premier meets for decathletes
and heptathletes.
“Our multi-event competition
has grown into, traditionally, one
of the best meets in the country,"
Nelson said. “Some of the best
decathletes and heptathletes in
the nation will be here.”
All-American senior Kendall
Madden and junior Chad Meyer
will lead the men’s decathlon
team. Senior Toby Ware and
freshmen Jake Boone and John
Bloom will add depth to the
Aggies’ roster.
The women will be led by
sophomore 1998 NCAA qualifi
er Desi Hudson and freshman
Kendra Reimer, who owns the
national high-school heptathlon
record and was rated the top
recruit in the nation by Track
and Field News. Freshmen
Kelsey Cox and Lindsay Meyer
could give the heptathlon crew
a boost.
Coach Nelson said the meet
will give the athletes a look at
where they will need to be in
order to advance to the NCAA
meet.

Such is the state of the aptly
