McLaughlin Siblings Sydney and Taylor Have a Good Day
Sydney McLaughlin ran her second-fastest career effort in the 400m hurdles to win the event with a time of 54.51.
The national high school record holder -- whose 54.42 PR ranks No. 5 in the world this year, regardless of age -- says she will take a down week this week and relax before the Olympic Trials.
McLaughlin, a junior at Union Catholic High School in N.J., will enjoy a vacation with her family in Los Angeles.
Her older brother, Taylor, also competed on Saturday.
The freshman All-American from Michigan ran the fastest time in qualifying: 51.04. The second-fastest qualifier was Cory Poole in 52.13.
After his race, Taylor said the college season feels long and he's a lot more tired in June than he usually is, but still motivated to snag a spot to Poland.
