Re: 2009 USATF: wSP

Carter
Wanless
Stevens

Stevens may not have won NCAA's but she gets something better, a trip to Berlin

[26mi235]

It is great that there are six competitors that I see making the team here.

My pick:

Wanless
Carter
Camarena

Wanless was disapointing, for Berlin maybe a place in final for Carter or Camarena.

Carter has now won two-consecutive national championships after placing fifth, fifth and second in the three previous ones, respectively. Prior to last evening, Seilala Sua's 17.97m in 2001 was the last time the shot has been won with less than 18.33m.

Women SP, together with TJ and JT are the most pitiful US events and have been for some time.
