The Evelyn Ashford!! My all time favorite female sprinter!! All you have to do is get her the baton and she'll take care of the rest. That 88 games anchor leg still gives me chills.
I read you loud and clear sister! I never get tired of watching how she outsprinted and overpowered the Eastern Europeans (E. Germans, USSR) en route to that olympic gold.
Evelyn was INCREDIBLE!! But for me, what made her even better was how humble, and sweet and likeable she was. It made me cheer for her even more. The 1988 anchor was the best!

When I tell you this race gave me chills!!! Those passes were fuckin PERFECT!!! But that Evelyn Ashford, babay!!!! She was one to always gets the job done!! I live
Evelyn Ashford was a hell of a runner. I don't know many sprinters/runners like her. Makes me tingle just watching her in this event in both 84 and 88!
@@andresuston7692 that's absolutely true did you know.. they wouldn't allow her to run on a relay because of her nails they thought she would drop the stick... That's a fun fact

@@thomasmckenzie4584 I am laughing now that I am remembering OFSSA in 1984. The Junior Girls 100 meters was the big race of the day. Aletha Thomas and Katie Anderson were sprinters from southern ontario, I think both were at Central Tech in Toronto. France won the race in 11.47 (w) to 11.78 for Anderson and 11.89 Thomas. She was quite an eye catcher, and I remember some guys behind me saying "she's white"...She won the 200m in the interscholastic record of 23.89 second place was 24.76 so it was huge margin, and back in the day when they always put the favourite in the inside lane.
@@dennisjacks7923 I remember watching Atlee Mahorn run Ofsaa for Central Tech. That school was loaded with talent but Mahorn was the best. I watched him win the 100, 200, 400 and the 4x4 at Ofsaa, and their strongest team, the 4x1 had dropped the baton before Ofsaa, otherwise Mahorn would've won five golds. I was 13 at these Olympics and my dad took me to the relays. I remember being so proud that France and Mahorn were running for Canada and were Ofsaa runners.
@@thomasmckenzie4584 Hilarious. I ALSO have pics of France and her entire family at OFSSA in '85. They were sitting beside me for a few hours before I clued in who they were.
Although Team USA ladies didn't break the Olympic or World record that day, the dominance of their performance makes up for it. That win ranks among the most impressive sprint relay victories in U.S. Track and Field history for women...right along with Seoul 1988 and London 2012

@@2KILLAVILLE Flo Jo almost ran her over as she was telling her to go. Maybe I watched a different angle that had a better close up than the video you saw but Flo Jo was side by side with the Russian runner and was handling business. Again, they didn’t rehearse for this race because there was miscommunication with the times…Evelyn said that herself so it’s makes me more inclined to believe (even through the evidence speaks for itself)..that Evelyn had a late start.
@RK-pu5ek Flo should've slowed down a bit cause she almost ran Evelyn over & caused time with the not so good hand exchange..acutallly flo was behind on her leg thats why she was even with the other 3rd leg on the curve which is why Evelyn had to catch up once they got on the straight. If Flo was ahead then she would've been ahead of other 3rd leg on the curve. In the end it was Great to see Evelyn Dope Comeback to win Gold for 🇺🇸

Not a killer commentator. Approaching the second pass, he says Trinidad is inside the US team, which is correct (Lane 4), but long behind. It's Canada who is close to the US team. On the OUTSIDE (Lane 6).

Nice breakdown of the race and handoffs by OJ. Sad that he went off the rails.
