On the men's side, five Rams competed in the hammer throw including Adam Hellbom and Cameron Kalaf who made the final heat.

Bigley led the shot put for the Rams recording a fourth-place finish; his mark of 17.60/57-9 was just four inches off the top throw of the day. Jensen continued to make his presence known on leaderboards, finishing eighth place in the shot put and recording a personal best 16.71/54-10.
