While a number of individuals took home championships from a variety of schools, the Arkansas women deserve special recognition. They were able to accomplish something that no women's team in the history of the school has in the past, as WholeHogSports passed along:

Arkansas' women made history, but Oregon's men did what they do best and won yet another track and field championship. Oregon Track and Field noted that it was the second consecutive year the budding dynasty took home the title:

Texas Tech got the afternoon started with a dominant performance in the men's high jump. JaCorian Duffield took home the title, while teammate Brad Adkins finished right behind him in second place. 

Texas Tech coach Mark Scott was certainly fired up, as was Athletics Director Kirby Hocutt:

Southern Illinois freshman Raven Saunders then stole the show with an incredible performance in the women's shot put. National Throws noted that she set some records in the process:

After that, the runners started up with the mile races. Michigan State's Leah O'Connor and Oregon's Edward Cheserek turned in blazing times to win the women's and men's races, respectively. Cheserek proved that it isn't just the Oregon football players who are fast, while O'Connor earned the respect of Evan Jager, who is the American record holder in the 3,000-meter steeplechase:

Oregon Track and Field pointed out that it was business as usual for Cheserek: 

Kendra Harrison of Kentucky and Omar McLeod of Arkansas each captured a 60-meter hurdles title. Kentucky  Track and Field captured a highlight of Harrison’s impressive run, while FloTrack pointed out how ridiculous McLeod’s time was on the track:

LSU’s Vernon Norwood added to the SEC’s stretch of individual victories with the 400-meter race, although Texas’ Courtney Okolo gave another conference a title in the women’s 400 meters. Jacob Hamilton pointed out that Norwood came through when it mattered most, and The Longhorn Network passed along highlights of Okolo’s run:

It was business as usual for Alabama’s Remona Burchell in the women’s 60-meter race, as BamaOnline noted:

It was also a big day for the Florida Gators. Ciarra Brewer took home the title in women’s triple jump, Kyra Jefferson captured the women’s 200 meters, Marquis Dendy won the men’s triple jump and Stipe Zunic finished in first place in the men’s shot put. Scott Carter of GatorZone.com pointed out that it was quite the performance for the Gators:

Florida coach Mike Holloway discussed his jumper Dendy, via Chip Souza of NCAA.com: “He had some adversity last year, but he said he wanted to try and help the team. He’s had a phenomenal year. He may be the best jumper to ever come out of Florida, which is saying a lot...I’m glad he’s on my team.”

Elsewhere, Trayvon Bromell took home the title in the men’s 200 meters, and Baylor Track passed along the highlights:

The women's champions, Arkansas, received a major boost when Sandi Morris took home the women's pole vault championship. Andrew Hutchinson of WholeHogSports described how it happened:

Dominique Scott also came through in the clutch for the Razorbacks with her victory in the women's 3,000-meter race. A Runner's Eye described the action:

Oregon's Eric Jenkins captured the men's 3,000 meters, while his teammates Cheserek and Will Geoghegan in second and third right behind him. Track and field writer Kevin Liao pointed out that it was yet another incredible performance for Jenkins:

The clean sweep in the 3,000 meters was only fitting considering the Ducks took home the men's team title.

As Liao noted, Jenkins still has the outdoor season to add to his resume.

This victory will only give him more momentum moving forward into that season as he tries to give Oregon some more individual titles outdoors after an impressive showing at the indoor championships. 

While Jenkins and the Ducks will certainly have a formidable outdoor season to look forward to, Saturday was all about celebrating their indoor national championship.
