With Ward's 10 points, the Cougars finished tied for 19th place. He qualified for All-American status in both the 5000 and 3000 meters.
Braydon Bringhurst competed in the pole vault for BYU and finished in 10th place, clearing 5.40 meters (17 feet, 8.5 inches). Chase Dalton took 14th place in the heptathlon with 5401 points.
