In the men's high jump, Tyus Wilson cleared 2.29 meters for a personal best to become champion. Scottie Vines followed with 2.26, and Shelby McEwen with 2.20.
In the women's triple jump, Yovine Andre took first with a personal best leap of 13.94 meters. Kayla Woods placed second with 13.75, and Kayla Pinkard third with 13.48.
In the hammer throw, Annette Echikunwoke won gold with a best mark of 75.47 meters on her first attempt. Rachel Richson (73.02) and Erin Reese (72.94) completed the podium.
In the half-marathon race walks, Nick Christie won the men's event in 1:31:57.11, while Lauren Harris took the women's title in 1:38:35.56. The championships are being held in New York for the first time since 1991, celebrating their 150th anniversary.
