Celebrating A Century of NCAA Track & Field Championships
De Grasse Sprinted To Otherworldly Double
Andre De Grasse was a supernova in a pair of star-studded sprint fields at the 2015 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships.
De Grasse completed the 100-200 double in Eugene, Oregon, with blistering, wind-aided marks that left Hayward Field buzzing and turned the collegiate track & field world – and track & field world, in general – on its head six years ago.
It all started in the 100, where De Grasse lined up against Trayvon Bromell, who clocked the second-fastest time in collegiate history in the semifinals the day before. Bromell went 9.90, which barely missed the collegiate record set by Ngoni Makusha of Florida State in 2011.
