I’ve been good on here this year...until now.
I know conditions were perfect, but give me a break. That was a 10.70, maybe even a 10.68-10.69, had she run through.
Yes she could be clean, and if she is, she is the fastest ever. Of course the odds are overwhelmingly against that.
She looks insanely solid, no imbalance, timing perfect, footstrike perfectly positioned, low contact time.
Wow, wow, wow.

it wouldn't be a miracle, she's probably ranked 3rd considering all the conditions. I think she will push for win but Kelati or jones will squeek it out.
It would be a miracle. Kelati and Jones are way better. Werner is very good but not a favorite to win.
Jones is still there. She will win
Werner is frash, Kelati looked vulnerable and is doubling back, Jones has only run 15:46
that's not a miracle, it's an upset.
That was clutch for Werner but USC has got to feel good about their chances in the 4x4 to take home the trophy.
Great race by werner. Jones is too good of a finisher.
It would also be a huge upset for arkansas to beat usc in the 4x4 :-)
Steelman only steeple to run well in 8th....Coen, Clark DNF, Ostrand prouse 15th, 16th.
kinda doubt they don't repeat that double next year, just not feasible in Austin
Kelati, Jones, Ostrander, Werner all back, could be great 5k
Comes down to the 4x400. Doesn't get any better than this.

kinda doubt they DO repeat that double, i meant
I feel like the 200 may well be the difference maker in the team race: both Annelus and Brown were in photo finishes for their respective places with Annelus getting the win but Brown getting beat out for 3rd by 0.002. If those leans go differently that's a 3 point swing for Arkansas
10.75 is not just the performance of the meet, it is up there for performance of the year so far, up there with Norman’s 400m
better yet, the NCAA should go back to the traditional 4 day format!
WOW!!! That’s a bad time to drop the stick....

usc would need to be DQd or drop the baton in the 4x400 for Arkansas to have a shot. Werner is not going to win the 5000. She will be lucky to get 4th or 5th. 3rd place tops. that means arkansas will be trailing going into the 4x4. usc is the favorite there.
welp
wow. looks like we might have to wait to see the team victor, if there's a protest. i hope they won't cut off the broadcast not knowing who won again
There was the dropped baton!
Woo Pig Sooie!!!
Wow. Gonna be interesting to see the protests here.
You can hit hurdles in your own lanes, not hurdles in another lane.
ARTICLE 2. The referee, after consulting with the appropriate officials, shall disqualify a competitor who:
a. Advances or trails a leg or foot outside the hurdle width and below the top horizontal plane or plane extended of the hurdle;
Hitting a hurdle outside your lane would require you to "advance or trail a leg or foot outside the hurdle width and below the top horizontal plane or plane extended of the hurdle".
As stated, it was a slight contact and did not impede the runner. I would assume that was the protest- denied, but still worth protesting.
Doesn't look like it'll matter, can't see how Arkansas would've been DQ'd.
(They may well have beaten USC without the dropped baton, anyways)
