Nike Indoor Classic - 3/11-12/2000 at Bloomington IN
Girls 200 Meters
Erica Whipple 23.99
Erica Whipple doubles with a terrific 23.99 time, No. 2 in the US this season.
Running in lane 5 against Tracee Thomas in lane 6, Whipple caught
Thomas at the top of the stretch
the finish
Analysis by Mike Byrnes
In both the 200m and 400m, trials are held and the fastest six advance. This makes for a tension-filled arena as the slightest distraction can mean the difference between moving on to the finals or a long trip home. 40 states were represented in Bloomington and in most of the events 5-6 states were represented. Such was the case in all four of these fields.
Young women representing Florida, California, a pair from Michigan, a Texan and a Tarheel moved to the blocks all well aware of ERICA WHIPPLE's brilliance. In the trials the powerful Floridian, a recent transfer to Palm Beach Lakes, breezed to a seemingly effortless 24.79 and stamping her indelibly as "THE FAVORITE." Golden Stater TRACEE THOMAS was close, 24.97.
These two proved indomitable in the final with Whipple easily taking
her second Jostens NIC ring in 23.99.
