It's a shame the two best collegiate 110 hurdlers won't even be running in the Championships with Shamar Sands and Craddock both out.

And, don't forget Richardson of South Carolina, who got injured just before the outdoor season began.

one notable loss

[D.O.]

It's a shame the two best collegiate 110 hurdlers won't even be running in the Championships with Shamar Sands and Craddock both out.

And, don't forget Richardson of South Carolina, who got injured just before the outdoor season began.

Him as well, but I was mainly speaking of people who actually ran this season.
