PASSING THE BATON: TRACK SUPERSTAR MARION JONES' DUTY AND LIABILITY TO HER OLYMPIC RELAY TEAMMATES I. INTRODUCTION In October of 2007, millions of avid sports fanatics, track and field aficionados, and Marion Jones enthusiasts felt the pain of their hearts breaking as the gold medal track star admitted to taking performance enhancing drugs.' The Olympian confessed to ingesting the steroid tetrahydrogestrinone (THG or "the clear") before the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. 2 After seven years of denial, Marion Jones pled guilty to lying to federal investigators about using the ster- oids and was subsequently punished by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and the International Olympic Com- mittee (IOC).3 The question then remains:

    Next TLARGI Dinner Meeting—April 6, 2010 “Going for Gold” Going For Gold: Al Joyner A star athlete at Lincoln High School in East St. Louis, Illinois, Alfredrick "Al" Joyner went on to attend Arkansas State University. He competed with their track and field team throughout his college career, and by the time he graduated Al was a three-time NCAA All-American indoor champion, a three-time NCAA All-American outdoor cham- pion, a four-time Southland Conference champ and had placed 8th in the triple jump at the World Championships in Helsinki, Finland. In 1984, Al traveled to Los Angeles for the Summer Games to compete with the U.S. Olympic track and field team. With a leap of 56'-7.5", he became the first American in 80 years to win a gold medal in the triple jump. Al was also honored with the Jim Thorpe Award, which is given every four years to the best American competitor in an Olympic Field Event. That same year, Al cheered his sister Jackie Joyner Kersee as she competed in the heptathlon. When she captured a silver in the event, they be- came the first sibling teammates in U.S. history to medal during the same Olympics. On October 10, 1987 Al married track legend Florence Griffith, later known as Flo Jo. The two met in 1980 at the Olympic trials registration and felt an instant connection. Al later assisted his brother-in-law, Bob Kersee, in coaching Florence to gold medals in the 100, 200 and 400-meter relay.

  • 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.

  • 2017 Annual Meeting Committee Reports
    2017 USATF ANNUAL MEETING COMMITTEE REPORTS 2017 Athletes Advisory Committee Annual Report Submitted October 30, 2017 Purpose: The purpose of this report is to summarize the strategic goals and progress towards such of the USATF Athletes Advisory Committee in 2017. Strategic Goal #1: Athlete Funding & Support Increase athlete funding through prize money, stipends, Revenue Distribution Plan The RDP contract is being finalized between the national office and the AAC to ensure fair treatment and no room for interpretation. A plan for the 2018 RDP money (since there is no team to make and be paid for) is being presented to the national office. Athletes need to be paid on time, in a predictable manner. A schedule is being put together detailing when each type of payment can be expected (Tier payments, prize money, RDP), to which the national office will be held accountable. The Emergency Relief Fund was finalized in 2016 to provide emergency financial assistance to current or recently retired athletes facing a catastrophic event causing financial distress. In 2017, the fund was first used to help athletes in dire situations. USATF has funded the account initially, with the AAC being responsible for future fundraising. Strategic Goal #2: Domestic Competitive Opportunities It is important to the AAC that we continue to seek out opportunities for domestic competitions to reduce the dependency on the European circuit. 2019 will be an especially important year, as the World Championships will take place much later than usual (late Sept/early Oct). We will need domestic competitive opportunities in June, July and August of 2019.

    Volume 12, Number 2 {coverage from July 1 Æ December 31, 2010} AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION DECISIONS United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) v. LaShawn Merritt, AAA No. 771900029310 (Oct., 2010). Merritt tested positive for the prohibited substance DHEA and pregnenolone three separate times. Merritt claims that he ingested the substance by accident, but he does admit that he tested positive as a result of ingesting ExtenZe, a product used for enhanced sexual performance. USADA agreed that the positive results were caused by ExtenZe, and as such represent an accidental ingestion. The panel found that Merritt was not significantly negligent and reduced the required two-year ineligibility status to twenty-one months, starting October 28, 2009 and ending July 27, 2011. He is also prohibited from participating in and accessing the U.S. Olympic Training Facilities during this period. United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) v. Kirk O’Bee, AAA No. 771900051509JENF (Oct., 2010). Cyclist O’Bee committed his second anti-doping violation when he tested positive for recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO), eight years after testing positive for testosterone. USADA was also able to prove that O’Bee either used or possessed HGH as early as September 2005, and used testosterone after his first suspension. The panel imposed a lifetime suspension and disqualified his cycling results from October 3, 2005 through July 29, 2009, the date of his suspension from the sport.
