Forde Reaches World Finals in 60 Meters

 

NANJING, China — UNT sprinter Julian Forde placed seventh against a world-class field in the finals of the 60-meter dash on the first day of the World Indoor Track & Field Championships in Nanjing, China.

 

Representing his home country of Barbados, Forde clocked a 6.57 in the preliminary round, recording a career best time in the event. After a 6.59 got him through the semifinals, he wrapped up his competition placing seventh against some of the fastest sprinters in the world with a time of 6.64.

 

A junior at North Texas, Forde is coming off an indoor season that saw him earn all-conference honors as the American Athletic Conference runner-up in the 60 meters.

      Remaining Eligibility

      Jossell is in his fifth season now...1 at KU, 3 at SFU, 1 at UNT...so I don't think he'd qualify unless his 10 games at KU didn't burn his shirt. I'll be happy if Floyd gets a bonus year and we can hang on to B-Lo, Newell, Vice, Mason and Smith...that'd leave 7 ships, 4-5 I'd love to see go to some baller guards/wings transfers and maybe 1 space eating big

      I'm so tired of watching a 15 seed like Robert Morris get blown out by a 2 seed like Alabama

      If we defend the 3 this can be a comfortable win. That's how much they lean on it. Also, if this is in the 20s at the break then we have them in the grinder and will chew em up in the 2nd half.
