EUGENE — The USA Track & Field Outdoor Championships conclude Sunday at Hayward Field with a bevy of finals.
On the track, there are finals in the women’s 5,000 meters, men’s 5,000, women’s 3,000 steeplechase, men’s 800, men’s 400 hurdles, women’s 800, men’s 200, women’s 200 and men’s 110 hurdles. Field finals are the men’s triple jump, men’s high jump, men’s javelin and women’s shot put.
In the women’s 5,000 final, Elise Cranny of the Portland-based Bowerman Track Club showed off a powerful kick on the final lap to move to the front and win it in 15 minutes, 49.15 seconds. BTC teammate Karissa Schweizer was second in 15:49.32, and Emily Infeld took third in 15:49.42.
Bowerman Track Club athletes also went 1-2 in the men’s 5,000. Grant Fisher pulled away from the rest of the field and cruised to victory in a meet-record time of 13:03.86. Woody Kincaid moved up to second with a 54-second final lap, finishing in 13:06.70. Abdihamid Nur placed third in 13:08.63.
In the women’s 200 semifinals, Gabby Thomas sneaked through to the final but Sha’Carri Richardson did not. Abby Steiner posted a world-lead-tying time of 21.80 to win her heat, while former Ducks star Jenna Prandini ran a season-best 22.19 to place third and move through to the final.
There is plenty of star power left in Sunday’s remaining races. With so many stars in the men’s 200, who will emerge to make Team USA for the World Athletics Championships next month at Hayward? And Devon Allen and Grant Holloway figure to bring a great head-to-head matchup in the 110 hurdles.
With temperatures in Eugene expected to creep up to the low 90s on Sunday afternoon, USATF tweaked the Day 4 schedule to shift events earlier and wrap up the meet sooner. The competition window now runs from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., starting with the 5,000 finals.

10:53 a.m.: Men’s 5,000 meters, final
Results: Evan Jager sets the pace early in the race, but then drops out midway through. Bowerman Track Club’s Grant Fisher moves to the front and opens up a big lead, with Abdihamid Nur and Emmanuel Bor second and third. Woody Kincaid of the BTC is trying to reel in the leaders, though. And he does. Fisher wins the race in a meet record of 13 minutes, 3.86 seconds. Kincaid kicks to second place in a time of 13:06.70. And Nur is third in 13:08.63. The men’s 5,000 team for the World Athletics Championships will be Fisher, Kincaid and Nur. Former Oregon Ducks runners Cole Hocker, Cooper Teare and Eric Jenkins all scratched out of the 5,000.
