The list includes Kevin Cunningham, Gavan Bass, Thomas Dimitri, Corey Altenburg, Terry Smith, Marcus Thompson, and Kolby Barnhill for the men while Holly Rollins will compete in the pole vault for the women's team.

Cunningham ran a season-best 48.86 seconds earlier this season in the 400-meter race and was picked up for nationals with the third-best time in the nation. He, along with Smith, Thompson and Barnhill automatically qualified Saturday in Ames, Iowa in the 4X400-meter relay with a time of 3:16.85, which is the second best time in the nation entering into the national championships.
