Andre De Grasse anchored the men's 4x100-metre relay team to a stunning gold, decathlete Pierce LePage and hammer thrower Camryn Rogers took silvers and 800m runner Marco Arop grabbed bronze.
Those athletes will all contend for the podium again as this year's world championships get going Saturday in Budapest, Hungary.
With the 2024 Olympics now less than a year away, this meet will show us who we might see on the medal stand next summer in Paris.
