RALEIGH, N.C., June 14, 2002 --- Kelly Willie
dethroned defending champion Brendan Christian with a convincing
10.35 triumph. After two false starts due to flash photography,
Willie (Houston) and Christian (Austin) were running side-by-side
in lanes five and six. Willie pulled in front a lttle past the midway
mark, and put daylight between himself and Christian in the final
20 meters.
Christian, looking for his third career AOC title, was second in
10:44, with sophomore Ivory Williams (Beaumont, Texas) third in
10.56. Christian had won the 200 in 2000 and this race last year.
He came to Raleigh fresh from a 100-200 double at the Golden West
meet. His 10.20 in Sacramento is the national leader.
“I was running for a little faster time, but I’ll take
them as they come,” said Willie, one of the nation’s
best in the 100, 200 and 400. “You just have to stay focused
and run your race. I felt some pressure because this was a good
group of guys.”
Willie and Christian, Texas state champs this year in different
classes, are expected to hook up again in Saturday’s 200.
Willie Hordge (Houston), a 10.3 performer this year, scratched from
the final due to injury. Hordge’s departure opened a spot
in the final for Kevin Merion (St. Petersburg, Fla.). Marion, fourth
in the first heat, had the tenth-fastest qualifying time at 10.85
There was no wind for the final, which took place at dusk in warm,
muggy weather.
