    Congrats to Sydney and the rest of the Wildcats for a stellar showing at the 2018 NCAA indoor nationals! A new school record in the 400m and .02 seconds shy of a collegiate record!!

      Oh yeah, and that 50.36 400m was in fact a world junior record, if anybody was curious.

      She went on to do 50.07 ...in the rain.
      And those WJR's are U20, so it's extra ridiculous to break 'em at 18.
      She also did 22.39 200m outdoor and Gabby's new collegiate record for indoor 200 was 22.38 (on a track with tighter curves, sure, but also it's banked and has some bounce usually).
      Then she had the best split on the gold medal team for the women's 4x400m at the world championships ....and got 0.07 from the new WR in the women's 400mH.
      Just crazy...

    Can you please tell the announcer to shut up. There are more athletes on the track than just her. Folks need to stop biting, because when she is no longer the fastest, she will be forgotten.

      Facts of life: People don't care about mediocrity. People only cares about WINNERS. Sydney is already a winner why she gets all the attention. So be a WINNER.

      She's the best so she gets that kinda treatment just how it is nobody really cares abt the average

      Dude stop spreading negativity she is the best because now she beat the WR for the 400m hurdles and 21 and made it to the Olympic at age 16. Not a lot of people can say that.
