I am sure you have sprinted 200m dash more than I have. Many elite 200m dash gals & guys as you know sprint first 100m about 15/16 effort then go for it from 100m to (175 to 190)m then manage deacceleration over the final (25 to 10)m.
2022 USAs, I watched the 200m several times. I also studied 10m segments for all in 200m dash final from 100m to 200m.
I came up with three possibilities for M Boling & 200m, summer, 2022:
* Deaccelerated worse than some of the others over final 25m due to long N.C.A.A. indoor & outdoor, T&F seasons.
* Maybe Matt B is an inferior 300m man compared to most of the other men at USAs, 2022? I do not know?
* Maybe Matt B gets too tight psychologically in big races? Is it possible for him to relax his face and upper body in order to allow the speed to come out?
If I recall, Matt B's issues at USA was not the first 100m. Wasn't he in top 4 or 5 at 100m mark? If I recall Matt B was sprinting fairly well from 100m to 150m. If I recall, some of the guys went to another level from 150 to 175 or so and Matt B's deacceleration. I see a lot of room for improvement.
