What Happened Day 4 – Day 5 (Aug. 25 - Aug. 26 Morning): Bowerman Trophy finalist Jenna Prandini had her first taste of international competition with her opening round heat of the 200 meters, Wednesday morning. Having not competed since the U.S. Championships two months ago, Prandini was content to use a conservative start and a strong finish to place second in her heat, running even with heat winner Marie-Josee Ta Lou of the Ivory Coast over the final 100 meters. Prandini’s runner-up finish in 22.95 automatically qualified her to Thursday’s semifinals, where all three Americans advanced.
