Day 1 of nationals kicked off with Jesse Muntz working his way into eight place after day 1 of the Heptathlon.  Muntz set personal bests in the Shot put (13.12m) and High Jump (1.93m) to crawl his way out of 14th place early in the competition.  The Heptathlon will conclude today with the 60m Hurdles, Pole Vault and 1000m run.      The Mens 4x400m relay team also competed yesterday in the preliminary rounds.  The team of Nick O'Loughlin, Hugo Escobar, Tomas Ortiz, and Milton Collins ran a time of 3:25.05,  but that time was not enough to advance them to the finals. 

Today's highlights will be Nick O'Loughlin in the prelims of the 600m and Jackie Rogers in the weight throw and Muntz finishing the Heptathlon.
