Anna Cockrell of USC finished second in the 400-meter hurdles to win a silver medal at the Paris Olympics.
It is USC’s second medal at the Olympics in track and field.
Jasmine Jones of USC, who won the NCAA title this season, finished fourth.
Her time of 52.29 is the fastest-ever time by a collegian on an all-dates basis.
It can be argued that the 400-meter race (not to mention 400-meter hurdles) is the most exacting of all track races because it requires the participant to be ‘putting out’ all the way, and the best women are pretty fast too only trailing the men by 7-seconds

Scooter,
Have you heard anything about practice? Is the offense rolling, Is Moss ahead of the other qb, has the oline been coming together, has defense stopped the run, any information at all?

Always nice when that happens. Would be even nicer if it happened instantaneously.
