Also, for the NCAA, the Pac-12 & the Mountain West Division 1 Regionals are also FTA.

 

Mountain West is on all app stores, Pac-12 is on YT, just rewind on this 12-hour running feed to see it.

write down this name...

 

 Kelly Ann Doualla Edimo

 

she's born in Pavia (ITA) from  parents on November 20th, 2009 and she's rewriting the history of the Italian women's sprinting and long jumping

 

earlier Today, in a school meet, she ran the 100m in 11.46 (-0.9 wind), which is obviously a new age group record (the previous one was held by Alessia Cappabianca since 1997 with 11.97) and close to the Junior National record (11.40)

 

the U-15 world record is held by  Tina Clayton with 11.27

Jamaica Athletics Invitational secures title for meeting with most incompetent organisation - competition gets underway tomorrow and they still haven't released the start lists despite being constant bragging about all the big names that they have signed up.

Freshman Angelos Mantzouranis  of Minnesota won the Big 10 Championships today in the men's hammer throw with 75.15, a new CR, after the previous one was from Konstantinos Zaltos  last year with 74.93. Zaltos is graduating this year but didn't compete as he is already in Greece fighting for an Olympic spot.

 

We will see tomorrow Nikolaos Polychroniou  of USC in the Pac 12 Championships, hopefully for another gold medal, he has a SB of 75.24 from two weeks ago.

 

The race for the third and final spot on the Greek Olympic team for the men's hammer throw is really heating up, as Frantzeskakis and Anastasakis are most likely taking the first two spots.

Just a small correction to stress how impressive the time is: the wind was actually -0.9, according to multiple Italian websites

Quite a lot of meets round Europe today, mainly designed for people looking for Euro Qs.

 

Lots of  &  athletes in action in Belfast.

Julia tunks apparently fouled a 67 meter throw by falling out of a circle at a highschool meet.
