Now for the dullest event in this meet, the 4x 400s.

Four sections to run 13 teams! Time-trialling to the max because lead-off runners can't run in lanes 1 or 2, even though their three teammates manage it.

Section I: North Carolina, Seton Hall, Oregon

Seton Hall passes UNC on back of first lap, third leg. UNC takes it back on 2nd lap.

anchor: UNC/SH, Ore. Or to 2nd on back of 2nd lap and challenges UNC in homestretch,

UNC 3:37.01; Oregon 3:37.08; Seton Hall 3:38.87

Section II: Penn State, Arizona State, Texas A&M

leg 1: TAM, PSU, ASU 1-2-3 until ASU barely passes in 2nd

leg 2: PSU catches ASU at 200, challenges TAM around last curve, hand of is TAM, PSU, ASU

leg 3: PSU to lead on 1st back, ASU to 2nd at 190m,
