The CITIUS MAG team breaks down another action-packed evening at Hayward Field! Some of the biggest highlights from Day 3 of the U.S. Olympic Trials include:

– Men’s 100m final: The pre-race drama and hype delivered on the track as Noah Lyles won the U.S. title in 9.83, tying his lifetime best. Kenny Bednarek made his first 100m team with a lifetime best of his own running 9.87. Currently unsponsored Fred Kerley’s big bet on himself paid off with a season’s best 9.88 and a third place finish to make his second Olympic team.

– Women’s 400m final: After going 6 years between personal bests, Kendall Ellis got her second PB in two days with a 49.46 in the 400m final to win the title and book her ticket to Paris. 

– Men’s 400m semifinal: 16-year-old Quincy Wilson advanced to the 400m final with a 44.59 – which broke his own U18 world record and U.S. high school record that he set just two days ago.

– Women’s 800m semifinal: Athing Mu led all qualifiers to the final in 1:58.84 + led three other women under two minutes in her heat. 

– Men’s 3000m steeplechase: Kenneth Rooks won his second straight U.S. title in 8:21.92 and made his first Olympic team.
