Women's Shot Put - 5:00pm ET
Oklahoma's Tia Brooks launches a new collegiate record of 63-00.75 to win her third NCAA title. Pictures and results to come.
Women's Mile - 7:00pm ET
It was the battle and result that we expected as Colorado's Emma Coburn lead to wire to wire to take yet another NCAA title. Coburn's biggest threat, FSU's Amanda Winslow, sat on the Buff the entire way until the eventual champion pulled away with 150m to go.
Florida's other mile, Agata Strausa, hung tough and ran a solid last 200m to take third. One of Flotrack's biggest surprise of the indoor season, Georgia's Carly Hamilton, finished in fourth. She was once a "mystery" girl on our NCAA cross country highlight banner, but now she's fourth in the NCAA Indoor mile.

Men's Mile - 7:10pm ET
What just happened?!
Arizona's Lawi Lalang gets the win, but was only challenged in the final meters. In a very odd series of events, Lalang (who was already leading), threw in a surge and gapped the field at roughly the 700m mark.
Rather than cover the move, the field was content to sit back and work together. The chase pack may have underestimated Lalang as he was "only" running at 3:58 pace. The pre-race favorite and defending NCAA champion, Tulsa's Chris O'Hare, started to run backwards as NC State's Ryan Hill pulled a "Diego Estrada" and made a huge move to try and catch Lalang.
Hill was rolling (take a look at the splits below) and it looked like he was going to run out of room. Lalang then took a peak back, shifted gears, and repeatedly yelled "YES" on the homestretch as he pulled away in the final 50m to set a new NCAA meet record of 3:54.74.

Women's 60m Hurdles - 7:20pm ET
It was always going to be Clemson's Brianna Rollins. She looked strong out of the blocks, but wasn't alone as Baylor's Tiffani McReynolds was a half step behind the NCAA 60mH record holder.
By the time Rollins passed the penultimate hurdle, the race was hers for the taking. Her winning time of 7.79 improve on her meet record of 7.82, which she set in yesterday's prelims.

Florida's Eddie Lovett ran a strong second half to pull away from Texas A&M's Wayne Davis III. In his post-race interview, Lovett was full of confidence moving forward.
Eddie Lovett is the 2013 #NCAA Champion in the men's 60-meter hurdles in 7.50, a new PR. No. 4 all-time in NCAA history. NCAA meet record.

Section 1
Regina George gets a personal best, but it was all Shaunae Miller. Miller had control of the race the entire time and despite the home crowd finally coming to a roar as George made a move on the final turn, Miller had enough on the tank to hold her off.
We'll have to wait for the second section to decide the winner, but Miller should be safe.

Men's 400m - 7:50pm ET
Section 1
Oregon's Mike Berry ran a fantastic race to give him a new indoor 400m personal best. Arkansas' Anton Kokorin may have lead at the break (and the bell), but Berry made one perfect move on the backstretch to overtake Kokorin before the turn.
However, this second section is what everyone is waiting for... they just announced that Leondore could take a shot at the world record. We'll see - the record is no joke.
Section 2
STUNNER!!! A&M's Deon Lendore is upset by Houston's Errol Nolan. The backstory was all Lendore, but the final 50m was all Nolan. Lendore looked so calm at the bell, but when he started to clench his teeth coming off the final turn, we knew he was in trouble.
If you're the national champion, then it's totally fine to wear sunglasses indoors.
Women's 60m - 8:00pm ET
One heat in the 60m, two heats in the 200m ain't nothing for UCF's Aurieyall Scott. Lined up next to Oregon's English Gardner, Scott executed a near perfect race to take the title after being denied yesterday.
The 200m specialist, LSU's Kimberlyn Duncan, quickly faded as the rounds from yesterday may have taken their toll on her.

The U.S. Indoor 60m champion is now the NCAA 60m champion. Mississippi State's D'Angelo Cherry had no one beside him after VT's Darrell Wesh false started, but that didn't matter.
Cherry is legit, but we wish we could have seen him go up against the duo from Florida State.

Women's 800m - 8:20pm ET
We've followed this story the entire indoor season. LSU had the well-established Charlene Lipsey, but she was joined this year by our dark horse pick, Natoya Goule. Goule pulled a "Lawi Lalang" as she took the race by the jugular and never let go. The splits and picture (below) tell the story of a frontrunner who was able to hang on in the final 50m.
We also said to watch out for Oregon's Laura Roesler, who looked fantastic in her semifinal. Roesler would power past Lipsey in the final few meter to take second place and earn valuable points for the Ducks.

Men's 800m - 8:30pm ET
Elijah Greer shifted gears at a bell and then put it into overdrive in the final steps. PSU's Cas Loxsom lead the field through 200m (25.73) and 400m (53.15), but it would be Greer who would take the bell.
Loxsom hesitated a bit before covering the move and looked like we had a chance to finally get that NCAA 800m title. Also moving well on the turn was Loyola's (Ill.) Declan Murray, but it was all Greer up front.
Coming off the turn, Greer turned it up a notch and even though Loxsom was still fighting, Greer would hold him off.
The 800m also had big implications for the team race. Florida's Sean Obinwa picked up HUGE points for the Gators (5) while Arkansas, who originally had four entries in this race, "only" picked up 5 points through Rono and Squella.

Women's 3000m - 8:40pm ET
It's Abbey D at the double! The 5000m/3000m indoor double had only been done by Kim Smith (Providence) and Sally Kipyego (Texas Tech), but now there's a third name on the list.
Similar to her 5000m the night before, D'Agostino won it from a long way out; her splits from 1600m to the finish were all faster than the last.

Men's 3000m - 8:55pm ET
This may be the most impressive, ever. That's three races (one mile semifinal, the mile final, and the 3000m final) and two meet records.
When we were filming Driven, we saw Lawi Lalang drop Bernard Lagat on a hard long run. We knew he was fit (you have to be to drop Kip), but we didn't know how fit.
Speaking of which, Tom Lewis of USTFCCCA informed us that the last time the mile/3k was back in 1999. The man to do it? Bernard Lagat.
The 3000m not only showed us than Lalang is not from this world, but Kennedy Kithuka is human. Kithuka lead for the initial stages, but it was all Lalang from a mile out.
Though he never lost the lead, it doesn't mean it was all Lalang. The Wildcat fended off moves from OSU's Kirubel Erassa, but the biggest threat came from Flotrack's Under the Radar pick, Northeastern's Eric Jenkins.
More on the history of Lalang's double later tonight.
Update: Eric Jenkins has been DQ'd.
