Okagbare’s Olympics Woes Continue by mikuz(m): 8:18am On Aug 27, 2012
Nigeria’s Blessing Okagbare
returned to more track
misfortunes as she was
disqualified in the women
100m race at the Aviva
Grand prix meet in
Birmingham, England
Sunday.
Okagbare was hoping to
put the disappointment of
London 2012, where she
failed to meet expectations
in all her outings, including
her signature event the long
jump.
But she failed at the blocks
while compatriot, Gloria
Asumnu raced 11.22
seconds to place fourth in
the race won by Olympics
silver medalist, Carmelita
Jeter with 10.80 seconds,
she beat gold medalist
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryse who
returned at 10.90 seconds.
