The 2016 Glenn D. Loucks Games Preview Blowout - A Viewer's Guide




Girls 400m

Event Info: Saturday - 1:50pm

State of the Action

Despite some more recent forays into the higher profile MIle, the 400m was always Sammy Watson's first love.  One that she happened to throw down a still-standing US #11 back in the first weekend of April.  The fact that Watson could be capable of reaching close to sub-51secs is astounding, and Loucks is the perfect place to do it.  Amanda Crawford is ample competition, splitting a 52-second split of her own.  The two will most likely see eachother at States, where they will battle for a Fed title in the event.  Jinjer Pearce and Paris Peoples would be clear favorites in any other meet, but Loucks always likes to up the ante.
