A few Shockers will be competing in Eugene, Oregon this week as the USA Championships and the USA Junior Nationals will be going on concurrently in historic Hayward Field.
Kellyn Johnson will be running against the big girls in the 1500 meters - haven't heard if she has signed a professional contract yet but I'm sure this will be interesting to see how she fares at the highest level on the national stage.
Brett Trudo qualified for the USA's in the javelin but I heard will not compete to rest a sore arm. Coach John Hetzendorf will attempt to make the World Championships in the javelin, as he is a regular at this meet.
Three Shockers will compete in the Junior Nationals (under 20 years old).
Audacia Moore (100, 200), Todd McKown (110h, 400h), and Justin Hickey (Decathlon). Interesting all these athletes are local products: Moore from Wichita Heights, McKown from Valley Center, and Hickey from Cheney.
The meet will be on ESPN Friday and Saturday night and NBC on Sunday afternoon. Good luck Shockers!!!
