COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Justin Robinson, Gamali Felix, Kaleb Simpson and Jayden Davis were less than .4 seconds away from holding the fastest Men's 4x400 relay time in the nation this year, as their time of 3:05.54 was the highlight from a productive Ted Nelson Invitational on Saturday.

Outside of this relay team that took home gold, the Sun Devils left with two more individual titles, as well, courtesy of Danielle Sloley in the Women's shot put and Simpson in the Men's 200m.

The Sun Devils saw a total of 10 top-three finishes across a packed field alongside Texas A&M, Clemson, Houston, Tennessee and USC.
