I assume Ngonidzashe Makusha injured in the 60m prelims.
13 Ngonidzashe MAKUSHA SO Florida State 8.44 1(7)

If so, any idea as to the severity of the injury?

Bio says he has a 100m pr of 11flat. I somehow doubt that but if that is close he must be getting a great launch angle.

[DentyCracker]

Pretty sure he's a lot faster than that. that was probably when he was in HS
One of 4 Jamaicans in the field along with Julian Reid, Tarik Batchelor and Alain Bailey.
