Texas sprinter Julien Alfred won the women's 100m in 10.72 seconds at the 2023 NCAA outdoor track and field championships. Watch the full race here. Subscribe to the NCAA Championship RU-vid channel: www.youtube.co...
Wow, here she is in 2023 running exactly her Olympic championship in 2024 in Paris! Surreal, the same time that would give her the gold medal won on July 3, 2024. Brutal, she started building the gold a year before. 🚀🚀
@Stay Curious she's definitely on their Saint Lucia's worlds team and has been for years. Not that she doesn't have a great shot at making any world team, Saint Lucia doesn't exactly have much depth.
@@vernonfrance2974She’s looked the same since she was a 16 year old high schooler in Jamaica, she has rare genetics for musculature. Would you say this for the American athletes affiliated with drug users like Dennis Mitchell?
She’s the real deal, her start is already phenomenal, on the first leg in the 4x100 she looked to have almost as good a start as Alfred. Her poise has impressed me, she looked good indoors as well. Georgia has another freshman that’s pretty good at the 200m so they should be in good shape for the upcoming years.
@@BakangSerameWhat is the meaning of that comment? We host other nation's athletes at full expenses paid during college while failing to support local talents' development . Is that foolishness what you are referring to?
@Vernon France aren't, these student atheles paying back by running for the schools? That's the agreement though. I understand local talents should be given attention as well, if not more. However, coaches at these schools are more worried about their reputation and want the best atheles they can find. It's not the atheles' (international) fault. There is a problem with the system. Maybe there should be a quota imposed on the schools to limit the percentage of international student athletes a school can recruit, thus selecting more local talents. Just my opinion.
@@_CMm I don't blame the foreign athletes. They are wonderful and talented individuals but I just feel bad for the way we are neglecting our own and so many end up desperate, homeless, drug dependent and even sometimes incarcerated.
early lean again for Alfred. She got into a great top end stride until the last 6 steps or so. Then she did her normal. I guess they just started working on it.
Alfred is on the verge of being a superstar! She could one day challenge for the Olympic 100m and 200m double. She has the fastest wind legal 200m time in 2023!
@ladyjaz6817 Yes, I was, but anyone who follows track could have seen that Alfred was a star in the making from her college days at the University of Texas. Winning the 100m gold yesterday at the Olympics was something she was fully capable of doing!
Also thank you Texas for helping in the training of Alfred and making Saint Lucia proud and Texans to yell "Hook 'em Horns," despite her not being a native Texas Longhorn.
The whytè Boi commentator: 1.Looked like Alfred false started 2. I think Alfred did something with her head.. 3. False start, Alfred steps right up... Man lay tf off of Alfred u weirdo 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
I’m trying to figure out what is missing from her 100M race that she’s not yet on the level of ShaCarri or the Jamaicans. She has the second fastest 60M in history and she’s great over the distance. I think her extra gear kicks in more at the 80M line, instead of somewhere around 65M. If she changes a little bit of her execution, she’s got 10.6 in the bag.
Nothing, her race model is great it’s not like everyone is running 10.6 at the top. She’s up there with all the best women in the world. Alas her 10.7 runs are wind assisted so it would be nice for her to replicate it in legal conditions.
@@NextGenJay there is always room for improvement in any athlete. I’m not saying she is flawed…I’m saying she can be better in the 100M than a 10.8. Her first 60 is tied for second fastest person alive, her 200M is up there with the best alive, so, I feel she has more than 10.8 in her, which means the 100M needs to be executed differently to reach her full potential.
All season long I've been hoping Alfred could take down that Collegiate record and take it down she did. I would give her the Bowerman honestly. Britton has been superb but in my opinion Alfred has been even more so. If she can maintain this kinda shape into August she might hit on a 10.6 to medal in Budapest, which isn't too unlikely since she pretty much has almost 2 months off from here on out.
@@garrygalloway5043 excuse me? Do you know me? And or my associates and FAMILIES? I’d suggest you bring my comment to her and you’ll get enough answers to questions you may have.
@@jevaughnreynolds6075 You do not know her. You are just guessing ( or lying) in the dark. If you knew anything about her personally, you would not be writing on RU-vid. Reflective glory. YOU ARE NOT THE ATHLETE.😳😳
Shame about that 2.3m/s tailwind, converts to 10.85 (0.0) :( Just needs to rest up the rest of June and then run 2-3 DL Races in July in preparation for the WC in mid-August. Good run by Blackmon, Sears & Jackson.
She can't run diamond league races too late to register and she can't turn pro until she graduates or else it messes with her degree which she is a couple months away from getting
@@reddogqb123her coach already has plans for her to hit the diamond league circuit and she already graduated she was just finishing the collegiate season.
Это Америка даже не верится чемпионка бежит как мужчина очень мощно и очень закрепощенно плечевой пояс перегружен несколько попыток выйти на дистанционную скорость и наконец то долгожданная инерционная раскатка на последних 15 метрах я даже вспотел и устал посмотрев этот финал
Won by a whisker last year. This year just pulled away from them like a runaway train. Impressive! Bowerman winner right there. 1 more year of college to go.
How can you be deluded into thinking these women are representatives of the state of Texas? No Native Americans, no Latinas, and very few even from Texas. Instead of helping develop the local talent they get it a lot of it from other countries. Of course, more and more that is what colleges do. In the men's division they have the excuse that many of the best US talent will go to basketball and football to make more money. That excuse does not exist in the women's division.
Looking at this all over again, the convention is 10.85 with the time. Juliens first few steps were very ugly…she had three steps running side to side instead of forward, which really slowed down her time and changed her race a bit, which is why she had so much company early on. I think Julien is gonna be a solid 10.8 runner as a pro…I don’t have her as a 10.7 and definitely not 10.6 runner. She’s gonna do amazingly.
Ofili had a great season last year. Is either she is injured and recovering this year or she just running smart because I think this year is her last year in school. It's best to run smart than run hard in the NCAA. NCAA cannot pay the bills and take care of your family.
