Men's 400 m prelims on the track. Will Wariner advance from heat 5? Top 2 in each heat + 6 fastest losers

Wow 44.95 by Merritt. Pretty solid for a heat

Will he go on though?

Wariner makes it to the semi's as a fastest loser.

They keep talking about Burrell's big jump and all the wind, but never put the two together.

Potentially a wonderful story with Bryshon Nellum the second fastest qualifier.

From getting shot up by gang violence to running in the World Championships? He clearly has a shot at it.

Haney, Hunter & Fisher all thru.

Top 2 qualify for Pan Am Jrs.

3 monster kickers going at it in Saturday afternoon's finals.

Clever pun.

USATF has re-drawn the men's 1500 heats. I talked about how they had screwed up this afternoon in another thread (They just seeded everyone using their entry time, but failed to conver the 3 guys' mile times to 1500).

Your welcome.

Not sure how they did it however as the heats didn't come out like I thought they should.

Wow it rewinds! This is neat.

Junior men's 1500 prelims @ 4:55 on the video.

Rojo, thank you for promoting fairness in the sport of track and field. Anyone who says you are a bad journalist does not know what they are talking about

Wow 3 under 10 in the 2nd heat of the 100

Ryan Bailey DQ'ed in the heats!

Bromell 9.84 (+1.3)!!!!!

Beejay Lee doesn't make the finals in NCAAs and scores 0 points for USC outside the 4X100. Then he goes up against pros and makes the semis in a wind-legal PR (9.99) by 0.10.

It's not supposed to work like that.
