1999 Junior Nationals

Women's 800 meters

Pictures and commentary by Doug Speck

The 800 was another great field. Ysanne Williams (UCLA) had run 2:05.23, prep national leader Lindsey Hyatt 2:06.74, with Chika Chuku (Univ Mississippi) 2:06.87. Katie Hotchkiss, a 2:08.22 California prep, took the first heat at 2:14.46, with Hyatt (2:12.11) and Ysanne Williams (2:10.93) the other two.

In the finals, Virginia prep Janine Jones led the first 200 at just under 30, with Hyatt leading a closing pack at 62.9 for the 400. At 550 meters Katie Hotchkiss moved by first, with favorites Ysanne Williams and Lindsey Hyatt moving ahead around the final turn. Williams held her narrow lead down the homestretch to win 2:07.60-2:08.23. UC Berkeley's Erin Belger ended up third at 2:08.91.

Finish: Williams-Hyatt-Belger
