Sha'Carri Richardson is a national champion.
The 23-year-old sprinter from Dallas cruised to her first title at the 2023 United States Track and Field Championships on Friday with a time of 10.82 seconds in the 100-meter. It's Richardson's first major win since she was disqualified from competing individually in the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 for a positive marijuana test.
