Zagreb, Matt Tegenkamp takes the 3k!, by Larry Eder

Matt Tegenkamp is back to form, running a fine 7:40.90 over some tough competition, with second being Vincent Chepkop in 7:41.03 and in third, Mike Kiputo Kigen in 7:41.07. Chris Solinsky, another cheesehead, and former Badger, took seventh in a near personal best of 7:44.53!

(In this picture, Mr. Tegenkamp is shown running in the semi finals of the Beijing Olympic 5,000 meters. Matt won his semi final. He placed 13th in the final. )

Yarelis Barrios of Cuba beat Stephanie Brown-Trafton, 64.98 m to 62.94m. Brown Trafton, as you recall is the new USA discus goddess, having won the first US women’s gold medal in discus since 1932 and discus medal since 1984!
