USATF meet -- random thoughts

[crubb]

Just about all the big names are entered.

Would have liked to have seen what Walter Dix would do in the sprints.

Xavier Carter entered in 100, 200, 400. Will he compete at all? If so, what will he run?

Wariner only entered in 200. Wonder what he'll do? Wonder who'll win 400?

Anthony Famiglietti entered in 1500, 10000, 3000 steeplechase. That'd make quite a triple!

Women's 100 hurdles loaded. Perry vs Ginny Powell, who appeared to be superhuman in NCAA meet. Field amazingly deep.

Tom Pappas returns to challenge Bryan Clay in the decathlon. Hardee might also challenge after his NCAA disaster.

Richards entered in women's 200 and 400. Will she run both?

Can NCAA champ Jesse Williams win the high jump.

Can't wait to see this meet!

Re the Juniors, is Jordan Hasay running the 1500 or the 5000 ? I'd assume it's the 1500 as the 5000 is longer than the 3200's she's been running in HS competition.

3000 and 5000

Both distances are run in the junior meet. She's entered in both.

Re the Juniors, is Jordan Hasay running the 1500 or the 5000 ?

USATF has her entered in the 3k and 5k, not the 15. My guess is she picks one - the 3k. Although all the DyeStat posters want to see a showdown between Hasay and Megan O'Reilly, who is entered in the 5k. But latest rumors over there have O’Reilly injured, so who knows.

MY bad ! I forgot there's a 3000 for the Juniors.
