Oregon Track & Field held their final home meet of the season on Friday, as a variety of local schools and former Oregon athletes such as Devon Allen, Raevyn Rogers, Kyree King, Jasmine Todd, Marcus Chambers and a hoist of other alumni came to compete. The alumni stole the show in this meet; Devon Allen won the 110m hurdles and the 100m, Raevyn Rogers won the womens 400m and Mike Berry won the mens 400m, Marcus Chambers won the 200m, just to name a few. For the Oregon men's squad, notable performances included Sam Prakel winning the 800m, Myles Webb taking second in the 100m, Max Lydum taking the hammer throw, and Reed Brown winning the 1500m. For the women's side, Keera Stephen took the 100m hurdles, Maddie Rabing won the shot put, Madi Greenleaf won the 400m hurdles and Lilli Burdon won the 1500m. The Oregon Twilight meet also marked the last home meet at Historic Hayward Field, after plans to renovate the entire complex were announced last month. While Hayward Field will be hosting several meets over the next month such as the Prefontaine Classic and the NCAA Championships, this meet will be remembered as the last Oregon Track meet in the historic history of the complex.
