I was looking at the NCAA Division 1 results where they listed the All-Americans. Most events listed 8 athletes as all american but some like women’s LJ listed like 10. What is the story on this? I thought it was top8.

Lewis almost certainly has his hands on a 3rd consecutive gold medal…Powell good sprinting speed….oh that is huge!

It’s top 8. I believe if their are foreign athletes in the event, they either don’t get All-American status or they add on to additional spots.

Hm. Must be a common occurrence then?

The path to mastery will have many bumps in the road. Never lose sight of the goal. 8 metres.
