  • Indoor Track and Field DIVISION I Women’S
    Indoor Track and Field DIVISION I WOMEN’S Highlights Lady Vols show world-class distance dominance: Tennessee dominated Division I women’s indoor track March 13-14 – and dominated the world for more than 10 minutes. The Lady Vols captured the school’s second team title in five years at the Division I Women’s Indoor Track and Field Championships and won two events during competition at Texas A&M – including a victory in world-record time in the distance medley relay. Tennessee’s time of 10 minutes, 50.98 seconds, in that event sliced more than three seconds off Villanova’s 21-year-old world mark in the 1,200-/400-/800-/1,600-meter medley, and eight seconds off UCLA’s 2002 meet record. The relay squad was anchored for the second straight year by Sarah Bowman, who figured in both Lady Vols’ event titles and collected a second meet record when she out- leaned Texas Tech’s Sally Kipyego to win the mile run. “Oh, my gosh, look at what we’ve done this weekend,” said Bowman, who also was a member of the 2005 indoor championship team. “I couldn’t ask for a sweeter weekend my senior year. I can’t even put it into words. It’s so amazing. “The heart that this team has, I could actually tear up just talking about them. Just to be out here with these girls who are putting their hearts on the line for the team, and it makes you want to do it all the more. It’s awesome to be part of a team like that.” Tennessee coach J.J.

  • The First IAAF World Relays
    Fun Times In Nassau 6 — August 2014 Track & Field News It was party central in the stands in the Baha- mas, but all was serious VU[OL[YHJRHZ[OLÄYZ[ World Relays meet was highlighted by multiple World Records by Sieg Lindstrom What if they gave a track meet and everyone in town came? Or at least knew and cared? What, holy-moley, if a sellout broke out? Sounds like the Pre Classic, you might say. Or the Penn Relays, or the London Olympics. It sounds too—”sound,” uproarious, jubi- lant, brassy and infectiously rhythmic, being entirely relevant—like the first IAAF World Relays, which stepped out with inventive spirit in Nassau, the third weekend in May. Three World Records—by Jamaica in the men’s 4 x 200 and a pair by Kenyan squads in the 4 x 1500s—brightened the meet’s two days at Thomas A. Robinson Stadium, but not entirely unexpectedly since the sport of baton passing outside the traditional 4x1/4x4 realms has historically been practiced assiduously only in the USA. Logic more or less orchestrated the records aspect. Did it not seem likely 4 fellows from Eldoret or the Nandi Hills could average sub- 3:39 with a baton—when 9 Kenyans dipped below 3:33.3 last year? Might 4 Jamaicans with a PR average of 19.88 have had a bettor’s bead on the Santa Monica TC’s 20-year-old 4x2 mark? Seemed reasonable—as was the prospect that watching them try would be a ready-made hook for the new show.
