Womens' Long Jump

Final

No one in the pressbox could ever remember a time where the tie-break to determine 3rd went to the fourth best jump, but that's exactly what happened between Brianna Glenn and Shana Williams, as both tied at 21-3 1/2, with Glenn's 20-8 1/2 4th best better than Williams's 20-6 1/2 4th best. The win went to Jenny Adams, who impressed with her 22- 1/4w win. Adams, for whom legendary Houston/Santa Monica TC coach Tom Tellez came out of retirement to coach, would also have won with her 21-11w final effort, better than the best of runner-up Grace Upshaw (21-8 3/4). Interestingly, only Williams has the World Champs "A" qualifier.
