Top 7 Races At New Balance Nationals Outdoor


Girls 100m

When: Sunday

Who: Karimah Davis (Fl.), Sophia Falco (Fl.), Kaylor Harris (Tx.), Halle Hazzard (NY), Lynna Irby (IN), Diaja Lampkin (DE), Symone Mason (Fl.), Abby Steiner (Oh.), Kylia Wright (NC)

Skinny: Unquestionably, this is a star-studded race that could go a number of different ways. The favorite could be Mason, who owns the nation's best time of 11.24, but don't be surprised if she's given a run for her money from Irby (11.41), Harris (11.35), Steiner (11.59), or Lampkin (11.59). While seamless preliminaries and semifinal races will, the final will ultimately be all about the block start and top end speed. Can Mason grab the win here? A year ago, this race went to Harris, who won in 11.34 seconds. The meet record of 11.27 seconds is within reach here, too, and that was last accomplished by Octavius Freeman back in 2010.
