LONDON – Two San Francisco Dons will toe the line on the world stage in the upcoming IAAF World Championships, which commences from London Stadium tomorrow and runs through Aug. 13. Reigning NCAA 10,000 meter champion, Charlotte Taylor, competes for Great Britain in her specialty event on the track, and alumna and 2016 Olympian Maor Tiyouri '14 will again represent Israel in the marathon.
Taylor, a native of Spalding, England, stands as USF's first-ever USF woman to win a national championship, and her school-record and NCAA-best 10,000 meter time on the season (32:11.80) earned her a qualifying mark and eventual team selection for the World Championships field.
