The Oregon Ducks team performed well on Wednesday on the opening day of the Men’s Competition led by Devon Allen, who finished first in his heat of the 110 Meter Hurdles and will look to duplicate his 2014 performance later this afternoon on the track at Hayward Field. For the Oregon Ducks Men, Marcus Chambers made his way to the final finishing second in his heat for the 800 Meters, but the story of the day was Edward Cheserek who won the 10,000 Meter Final. He will also be participating in the 5000 Meter Final this evening.
By the end of the evening a Men’s Champion will be crowned. As it stands, the Oregon Ducks have a one point lead entering the competition this afternoon. Autzen Zoo will have Live Coverage from Hayward Field starting at Noon. Heptathalon events begin at 12:30 and Track events begin at 5pm.
