HEPTATHLON/DECATHLON... ARIZONA’s Pau Tonnessen maintained yesterday’s lead to claim the decathlon crown at the Pac-12 Men’s and Women’s Track & Field Championships on Sunday at Drake Stadium on the campus of UCLA. Meanwhile, WASHINGTON STATE’s Alissa Brooks-Johnson came from behind to win the heptathlon crown. Tonnessen scored 7,823 points, while Brooks-Johnson collected 5,803 points to claim the individual titles. A sophomore, Brooks-Johnson fought her way to the top by day’s end, defeating ninth-ranked Tatum Souza of UCLA (5,636), who had the lead going into today’s action, and USC sophomore Amalie Iuel (5,610), who was the defending champion. OREGON freshman Ashlee Moore was fourth in the heptathlon with 5,512 points and Torres rounded out the top-five with 5,455 points.

The top two spots in the decathlon standings did not change with Tonnessen staying ahead of STANFORD freshman Harrison Williams to claim the title, the fifth all-time for the Wildcats. Tonnessen, ranked No. 3 in the country, led a strong field which featured six of the top-15 decathletes in the country, including four in the top 10. Williams scored 7,679 points to place second, followed by UCLA’s Marcus Nilsson (7,663), OREGON’s Mitch Modin (7,417) and WSU’s Dino Dodig (7,416) who came in fifth place. Tonnessen’s win was an upset as UO’s Dakota Keys, who went into the weekend ranked No. 2, was going for his fourth-straight Pac-12 individual title.

THE RANKINGS... Here’s where the Pac-12 ranks in the USTFCCCA Top-25 as of May 11:

TOP MARKS... The Pac-12 Track & Field Championships have featured many of the nation’s top-collegiate teams and athletes on an annual basis. And this season is not any different. Four different athletes have posted the nation’s top times or marks, including the top sprinters on both the men’s and women’s side. OREGON’s Jenna Prandini and USC’s Andre De Grasse have recorded the fastest times in the 100 and 200 meters this season, which are also some of the fastest times in Pac-12 history. Prandini’s 10.92 in the 100 meters is a Conference record and the 22.42 she ran in the 200 meters is a top-three performance. De Grasse’s 9.87 in the 100 meters would have been a league record if it was wind legal, and his 20.16 clocked in the 200 meters is third-best all-time.

STANFORD’s Jessica Tonn ran 15:18.85 in the 5000 meters this year, which is the second-fastest time in the event in Pac-12 history. USC’s Conor McCullough threw a 248-11/75.88m in the hammer throw, tops in the nation and fourth-best in league history.
