NCAA wSprint Trivia

Muna Lee just became the fifth woman ever to score 8-for-8 in NCAA dashes. Who were the other 4?

For bonus credits which 3 of the 4 (like Lee) also scored in the 4x1s to get 12-for-12 scores?

Angela Williams, So Cal?

Re: NCAA wSprint Trivia

I don't think Angela scored often in 200. Could be wrong. I have no concise reference (and I assume that AIWA doesn't count) and I'm not sure I want to dredge through the old T&FNs. I'll think on it.

Esther Jones-LSU,Carlette Guidry-UT ? If I get one right, i might venture another guess.

<EDIT> and possibly Merlene Ottey-Neb

Re: NCAA wSprint Trivia

Williams never made it to an NCAA 200 final; Ottey was a junior before the NCAA came around; Guidry scored 3 times in each (and made a fourth final before FSing in the 100).

Esther Jones is one of the correct answers; so who are the other four?

Debbie Ferguson?

Re: NCAA wSprint Trivia

(1) Muna Lee + relay
(2) Esther Jones + relay
(3) Debbie Ferguson + relay
(4) Mary Onyali - almost relay
That leaves 1. hummmm. I'll think on it.

Cheryl Taplin

Re: NCAA wSprint Trivia

Hey GH, was the fifth person to your trivia question Cheryl Taplin? I checked a NCAA historical results webb site, and assuming the site had correct listings, Taplin was 7 of 8. I found quite a few women that were 7-8 but not 8-8. I was just curious about the fifth person. You gonna tell us, or do I need to keep looking? :-)

EDIT: <G> that's website not "webb site"

The NCAA site (http://web1.ncaa.org/ncaa/mainsearch.do) is incorrect - the "missing" race for Taplin appears to be the 1993 200m - the NCAA site doesn't show her as scoring. However, she did, finishing eighth. Looking at the pdf version, which is a copy of the printed results of the meet, it looks like Taplin's result fell off the end of the page, as seventh place was right at the bottom.
