Those who qualified took their skills to College Station, Texas, for the NCAA West Region First Round meet.

The change in competition did not affect Peter Visser. With his 12th-place performance, Visser sneaked into the national semifinals of the 3,000-meter steeplechase.

At the semifinals in Eugene, Oregon, Visser finished 17th.

Visser needed a top-12 performance to qualify for the finals, but he was still selected as an All-American Honorable Mention.
