I’m not Track and Field savvy, but it sounds like Bama is tearing it up.
Alabama Track and Field Qualifies 11 Women to the NCAA Championship Finals
Led by a historic performance from Tamara Clark, the Alabama women's track and field team has advanced 11 women to next month's NCAA Championship Finals following the NCAA East Preliminary at Hodges Stadium in Jacksonville, Fla., which came to a close on Saturday.
After qualifying for the NCAA finals as part of Alabama's 4x100-meter relay and in the 100 meters (10.98) earlier in the night, Clark proceeded to run the fourth-fastest 200 meters in collegiate history, posting a 22.13 in a dominant performance.
In a race where progress is so often measured by hundredths of a second, Clark lopped nearly a half second off her pervious best of 22.50 set earlier this season and buried the Alabama record by a quarter of a second. On the way to the new school record, Clark flew past Olympic Champions Pauline Davis (22.49) and Lillie Leatherwood (22.38).
Clark closed the night and the meet by helping the Crimson Tide earn a place at nationals in the 4x400-meter relay.
Amaris Tyynismaa also broke a school and Hodges Stadium record on Saturday, running a 4:09.48 to take top honors in the 1,500 meters and move on to the national finals.
After qualifying three to the NCAA Championship Finals earlier in the week, the Crimson Tide added eight more on Friday, including Clark (100m, 200m, 4x100m relay), Tyynismaa (1,500m), Natassha McDonald (400m, 4x100m relay, 4x400m relay), Esther Gitahi (5,000m), Leah Hanle (3,000m steeplechase), Daija Lampkin (4x100m relay, 4x400m relays), D'Jai Baker (4x100m relay, 4x400m relay) and Christal Mosley (4x400m relay). Mercy Chelangat added the 5,000 meters to her slate of events at the national championships after qualifying in the 10,000 meters on Thursday.

They are killing it. I think we have a shot at a top 5 finish for both teams, and definitely a good chance at a top 10. I think we’ll have several individual champions and All~Americans. If they all peak at the right time you never know.
