NEW 08/23/08

In the finals on 8/20/08, Spearmon finished 3rd in what seemed to be a Bronze Medal but minutes later was disqualified for stepping on the lane marker coming out of the curve into the homestretch. Spearmon, uncharacteristically, sped out of the blocks in hot pursuit of Usain Bolt and was being swept along in the world record pace race but took the curve too close. Spearmon is now 9-7 in races against Bolt. Although unofficial due to the DQ, Spearmon's time was something less than 19.96, well off his PR of 19.65 set at Daegu on 9/28/06.

Spearmon, Hicks excel at US Olympic Trials, Hayward Field, Eugene, Oregon, 6/27-7/6/08 .... NEW 08/08/08
Wallace Spearmon (Fayetteville/Arkansas) led the contingent of former Arkansas high schoolers at the US Trials by securing the 3rd spot on the USA 200m squad and just missed making the finals in the 100m. Antwon Hicks (Hot Springs/Ole MIss) barely missed making the USA team after a superb run through the qualifying rounds. Lauren Hagans (LR Christian/Baylor) made a strong statement in the W1500m missing out on the finals by one spot with strange finish. Katie Stripling (Jonesboro/Arkansas) competed in the WPV. Spearmon started his quest on 6/28 with a 2nd place in Heat 3 of the M100m prelims at 10.117 and improved to 10.069 to take 6th in Heat 1 of the quarterfinals. On 6/29, Spearmon was 5th in Heat 2 of the semis at 10.179, just .001 from making the finals. His run for the 200m team stated on 7/4 with a win in Heat 5 of the prelims at 20.81 with the 5th best overall time. On 7/5 he improved to 20.59 to take 2nd in Heat 3 of the quarterfinals and came back later that day in Heat 1 of the semis to place 2nd at a strong 20.05. In the finals on 7/6, Spearmon improved yet again to a speedy 19.90 for 3rd overall and good enough to make the USA team. Hicks, after a stellar career at Ole Miss as one of the nation's elite college high hurdlers, won Heat 1 in the opening round on 7/5 in the M110H at a pedestrian 13.40 and later advanced to the semis with a win at a quicker 13.28 in Heat 1 of the quartefinals. On 7/6, he tore up the track with a 2nd place in the semis at 13.09 but could only manage a 13.33 in the finals later that day for a still excellent 5th place finish. Lauren Hagans has run in near obscurity at sprint power Baylor but announced loudly at the Trials how far she has come with two PRs and a near miss in the W1500m at the finals. In the prelims, Hagans ran a very credible 4:17.94 in Heat 2 on 7/3 to advance to the finals. Looking like she belonged at the starting line on 7/4, Hagans found herself minutes later boxed in down the back stretch of the gun lap but put on a fabulous last 200m to pass runners in the curve and seemingly moving into position to advance when the runner in front fell causing Hagans to nearly halt before crossing the finish at 4:15.01 in a terrific time (4:32 pace for 1600m). Hagans splits were a very solid 69.54-68.63-66.79 with a 50.06 for the last 300m even with the mishap. Her last 400m was a strong 66.19. Katie Stripling ran into a buzz saw of competitors and could only clear 4.10m (13' 5.25") on her 3rd attempt and miss all three attempts at 4.20. Congratulations are in order to all of these alumni and best wishes to Wallace Spearmon as he pursues a medal in Beijing starting with qualifying rounds in the 200m on Monday, 8/18.

Meanwhile, Hagans concluded a college career of steady improvement with a 7th place finish in the W1500m at a very fine 4:15.43 clocking. Hagans was qualified in the prelims with a 4:15.69 time. Hagans time is a 4:35 mile pace. Senior B. J. Parish (Magnet Cove/Arkansas State) tallied 7033 points to place a solid 14th in the Decathlon.
