We're unpacking all the biggest moments from Day 2 of Grand Slam Track: Philadelphia at Franklin Field. Tune in as Chris Chavez, Eric Jenkins, Anderson Emerole, and Aisha Praught-Leer dive into the standout performances, surprises, and highlights from the day.

Some of the weekend's highlights:

— Melissa Jefferson threw down a dominant sprint double, clocking 21.99 in the 200m and a world-leading 10.73 in the 100m to capture another short sprints title in commanding fashion.

— Marco Arop ran a lifetime best of 3:35.38 in the 1500m to finish fourth, which was just enough to edge out Josh Kerr in the overall standings and claim the Slam title.

— Trevor Bassitt surged to a big win in the 400m hurdles, running 45.47 to defeat Alison dos Santos and earn his first Slam victory of the season—after finishing fifth in Miami.

— Jasmine Jones became the first athlete to win a Grand Slam Track title without winning an individual race, taking second in both the 400m hurdles (54.65) and 400m flat (52.73) in her first meet as a Racer this year.

— Diribe Welteji returned to Slam competition after skipping Miami and showed no signs of rust, sweeping the 800m (1:58.94) and 1500m (3:58.04) to earn her second title of the season.
