I also like the chances of Alex Anderson and Shalonda Solomon for the women .. For the men, it's possible to see a new face or two .. If someone like Jeff Demps, Maurice Mitchell, or Mookie Salaam gets hot they could get in there ... <br /><br />Jamaica has gotten a lot of publicity on their sprinting, but you're right it's mostly the 100 that they are deep ... I think there are going to be some surprises at Jamaica Trials this year .. Will elaborate later after a few more races are in the books ...Conway Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133670136098939453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181733805244715468.post-84155705717961078402011-05-22T18:52:42.871-07:002011-05-22T18:52:42.871-07:00Great article. Right now jamaica is "sufferin...Great article. Right now jamaica is "suffering" from an over supply of 100m sprinters. There need to be more balance in their short sprints. While the USA is very deep both in women and men ( hurdles and 400m flats) the jamaicans especially the men are coming up seriously short in these events.Back in the days the 400m and the 4x4 use to be jamaica's men bread and butter event but now they seemed to be struggling to find a quality 4x4 quartet.<br /><br />Hopefully they get more quality yougsters like the Bahamas to do the one-lap event. I can't wait to see the showdown at their natonal trials next month.My prediction for the USA trials are as follows:<br /><br />Mens 100m:<br /><br />Gaye, Dixe, Rogers, and Bailey.<br /><br />200m:<br />Gaye, Dix, Spearman,Bailey.<br /><br />Wome's 100m:<br /><br />Jeter, Myers, A. Williams and L.Williams.<br /><br />200m.<br /><br />Felix, Myers, Richards and Knight.zion1971https://www.blogger.com/profile/09683243702819252520noreply@blogger.com
