Molly Huddle dominated the Faxon Law New Haven 20k and Jared Ward won a five way sprint finish over Sam Chelanga, Dathan Ritzenhein, Luke Puskedra, and Tyler Pennel. This was Chelanga’s first USA championships as he became a US citizen last month.  (Read a nice profile on Chelanga’s amazing journey to US citizenship and being a star runner here)
