Drummond, NY Robeson, US leader at 600 and 800 meters, tours an unpressed
trial heat in 1:59.86 to advance to the seeded section in the finals.

 A
stellar final in the girls 200 meters was set up when US leader Aisha Margain,
CA Berkelkey, (right) ran 24.82 and Natasha Staten, PA Philadelphia,
24.87, the two fastest times of the 2000 indoor season except for Margain's
24.6h at Reno 2 weeks ago. A new US season best seems likely
Saturday. All this without Lashinda Demus, who suffered airline flight
delays in LA and missed the trials.

impressive heat winner in the prelim's fastest time of 2:16.56. Evelyn
Dwyer, PA Philadelplhia, (right) won her heat in 2:17.88.

US leader Alexis Joyce, CO Denver jr's 7.68 was the
fastest 60 meter qualifying time, but some competition may come in the finals
from Amandi Rhett, NJ Moorestown, 7.70 (left) and Karina
Francis, PA Philadelphia fr, 7.74 (right)

US leading hurdler Jake Garlick, UT W. Jordan sr, had an
easy qualifier in the 60 meter hurdles at 8.29
