In the 1,500, Ayanleh Souleiman and Matthew Centrowitz will battle as Robby Andrews makes a rare DL appearance. Brenda Martinez, Molly Ludlow and Chanelle Price are all in the 800 and is there any way Andy Bayer can win the steeple?

One interviewed spectator said he came by after he had a terrible "Tinder" date at a nearby cafe. "Even with the rain, this can't be worse than the date I was on, so I decided to watch and it was a great event. ... I don't know anything about athletics, maybe Usain Bolt. But I like what they did with the music and everything.”July 31, 2015
