 IU junior sprinter Vronique
Wilson (Ft. Lauderdale/Boyd Anderson) held true to form
late Saturday, after finishing ninth in preliminary heats Wednesday,
she finished ninth in the finals of the women's 200-meter dash
at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Baton
Rouge, La.
USC's Natasha Mayers won the national championship
in that event with a time of 22.93. Wilson, running her first-ever
NCAA Championship heat, crossed the finish line in 23.61.
With the top eight finishers gaining All-America honors, Wilson's
time was just one-hundredths of a second behind eighth-place's
Kinshasa Davis of USC who recorded a 23.60. |
