EUGENE, Ore. – Chrisann Gordon
Gordon crossed the finish line in 51.09 seconds, just off her personal best of 51.03, to finish in sixth place at her country's Olympic Trials. She was .67 behind third place.
With her finish in sixth place she could still make Team Jamaica for the Olympics as a member of the 4x400 meter relay. The Jamaican Athletics Administrative Association will announce the six runners in the relay pools for the 4x400 and 4x100 at a later date.
"Chrisann put it all on the line tonight," said Assistant Coach Seth Henson who is in Jamaica for the Trials.
