Buy PhotoEUGENE, Ore. - In every 100-meter hurdles race leading up to Saturday's finals at the NCAA Track and Field Championships, Tobi Amusan hit the tape all alone, then looked to the scoreboard to see what her time was.
Everything about the end of Saturday's race was completely different. This time, she was not alone, she was side-by-side with her rival Jasmine Camacho-Quinn of Kentucky.
This time, she didn't look at the scoreboard to see what her time was, though it (a wind-legal 12.57 seconds that is .01 off this year's world lead) was a school record.
