Jaiah Hopf secured the triple jump title, breaking her own school record with a leap of 12.76m. Darius Brown extended his success in the 60m hurdles, winning the event in 7.65. Alex Bernstein topped the weight throw field with a mark of 19.76m to take first place.
At last year's Blue Demon Alumni Classic, DePaul secured 13 first-place finishes across the competition. Brown won the men's 60m hurdles for the third straight year, while Claire Dunn led a DePaul sweep in the women's 400m. Damian Rodriguez took first in the 800m, and Meghan Dieball claimed victory in the mile. Nina Amicon finished first in the 3,000m, while Hopf won the triple jump and Kash Allen took the top spot in the women's shot put.
