What happened to Kevin Craddock?? Did he Trip over a hurdle or pull up with an injury ?? I really wanted to see a renewal of the Craddock-Richardson rivalry from their HS days.

Found the answer to my own question from the UCLA site:

Craddock came into the meet with the No. 4 mark in the nation (13.46), but injured his groin last week during practice, and was also diagnosed with strep throat earlier in the week. Craddock looked good in the beginning of the race, but started having issues with his groin midway through the race and eased up across the finish line, finishing 24th overall in a time of 14.31.

Fourie was a dnf, as he crashed after about the 6th hurdle.

I'm impressed with Richardson. His times have really come down the past two years. With Craddock out, this is his race to lose.

The 100H is sooooooo deep this year! (internationally...not so much collegiately)
