Jim Steacy - Men’s Hammer Throw Gold

“It’s unbelievable, this is a dream come true to finish off the season. It has been a long time coming; just amazing. I won the 2007 Pan Am Games so it has been a long time.”

“The crowd noise is a major part, the atmosphere is fantastic, and it was just so much fun. It is something I thrive on, the noise, the atmosphere when the fans get engaged like that, it’s hard not to do well and as soon as you get a throw out you are just going for broke and see what happens.”

Damian Warner - Decathlon Gold

"It was my first international victory. Last year at worlds I was able to stand on the podium and do the victory lap with the flag. This time it will be the same thing but I'll be on top of the podium, which is always an awesome feeling."

Kate Van Buskirk - Women’s 1500m Bronze

“Coming into the stadium seeing it packed like that, I mean it was packed for the heats never mind the final and you really can thrive off that crowd. This was the first time in my life that I wasn’t nervous, I wasn’t nervous last night, I wasn’t nervous today and I think I was just so amped up and excited and grateful for the opportunity to be here I am just really happy with how it all played out.”
