RIVERSIDE’S JAMIR BROWN LOWERS HIS NCAA DIVISION 3 HURDLES RECORD AT USATF JUNIORS, 2ND-FASTEST QUALIFIER FOR FINALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (edit – they used the HS 39-inch hurdles at USATF Under-20 so never mind)

Got a message last night from Rowan coach Dustin Dimit that they ran these races at USATF juniors over the high school 39-inch hurdles instead of the 42-inch college / pro / open hurdles for some reason.

So a good couple days for Jamir Brown but these times do not count.

Riverside’s Jamir Brown ran a lifetime-best 13.50 in the trials of the 110-meter hurdles Friday at the USATF Under-20 Championships.

Brown set an NCAA Division 3 record of 13.60 as a Rowan freshman in the prelims of the the New Jersey Athletic Conference meet in Ewing. Presumably, the 13.50 will count as the new D-3 record, even though it came after the end of the college season. Under-20 Nationals are an extension of the season.

In any case, Brown was the 2nd-fastest qualifier into Saturday’s finals. Ja’shaun Lloyd, a senior at Corsicana [Texas] High and the Armory Nationals champ in March over the 39-inch 60-meter hurdles, led all qualifiers with a 13.48.

Brown’s time is 11th-fastest ever by a New Jersey native over the 42-inch barriers and 5th-fastest by a South Jersey hurdler.

His 13.50 is No. 33 among all U.S. men this year and No. 5 on the world Under-20 list.

Normally, the top two finishers in the final would represent the U.S. at either World Juniors or Pan Am Juniors. But the U.S. announced earlier this month that they would not be sending a team to Pan Am Junior Championships in Villavicencio, Columbia, next month because of safety concerns.

Brown will be in Lane 5 for the final, scheduled for 8:51 p.m. Friday.
