    Places 4-8 in the women's 1500m are all in the top 25 in the world this year and none of them qualified.

    For most surprising I think it's hard to beat Laulauga Tausaga-Collins throwing the discus onto the track. Twice!

    I’ll have to go with this… was gonna say KC Lightfoot till I read this. At least no one got hurt.

    Coleman should've made it. 9.93 and 19.89 not getting you in is nasty. US and Jamaica should be allowed 5 spots each at the Olympics for the sprints

    Not distance related, and more positive than negative, but Tarik Robinson- O'Hagen got 6th in the Hammer and 8th in the Shot Put at 20 years old, and having competed all indoors and outdoors. 4 years from now, he should have a good shot at hammering in at least one event for the Olympics
