For the Cougar men, Bernard Lagat (senior, Kenya) won both the 800m (1:49.46) and the 1500m (3:51.90) and Demetrius Murray (junior, Tacoma) won both the long jump (23-9) and the triple jump (51-3 3/4).

Chris Charles (senior, Bainbridge Island) won the men's steeplechase in career-best and Pac-10 qualifying time of 9:04.21.

WSU won both hurdles races with Arend Watkins (sophomore, San Jose, Calif.) taking the 110m hurdles (14.03) and freshman Eric Dudley (Bellingham) winning the 400m hurdles (52.63).

Other Cougar men taking first Saturday included Chris Rushing (junior, Redmond) in the high jump (6-8 3/4), Lex Katich (junior, Keller) in the pole vault (16-0 3/4), and B.J. Schade (RS-junior, Sequim) in the hammer (200-8).

Washington thrower Ben Lindsey and sprinter Ja'Warren Hooker each won two events. Lindsey threw an NCAA PQ of 60-4 1/2 in wining the shot put. Husky javelin thrower Justin St. Clair improved his NCAA PQ with a heave of 231-3. UW's women had two NCAA PQ efforts - Anna Aoki won the women's 3,000m race (9:36.86) and Keisha Griffis claimed the 400m hurdles in 58.05.
