Jessica Ennis Sets Record And Beat Lolo Jones In Glasgow

Great Britain’s multi-athlete super star Jessica Ennis defeated favourite Lolo Jones in the women’s 60 metres hurdles dash at Saturday’s Aviva International Match Glasgow.

Ennis, competing as a guest athlete at the meeting sped to a national record and new world leading time of 7.95seconds to win the event ahead of reigning World Indoor champion Jones, who was competing for the United States.

The British star had promised in the build up to the meeting that she was ready to break records and she did not disappoint. Jones collected the full points though in the match, since Ennis was only racing as a guest.

Germany’s Caroline Nytra finished third in the race in 8.08secs, while Sarah Claxton was fourth in 8.20secs.

The men’s race went to American David Oliver who posted 7.58secs to win after rocketing from the blocks.

The American collected five-points when beating Germany’s Helge Schwarzer (7.68).

Jamaica’s Novlene Williams, competing for the Commonwealth team, won the women’s 400m in 52.83secs, beating USA’s Debbie Dunn (53.15) and Victoria Barr of Britain (53.83).

“The JAAA wishes to advise that the rules governing entries for the Championships allow for the naming of an Alternate athlete for an event in addition to the Athletes named for that event on the team. An Alternate can be used to replace an athlete named to the team within the time allowed by the rules in the event that it becomes necessary for such a replacement. The JAAA has therefore named the following athletes as alternates."

Male
Markino Buckley, Ramone McKenzie

Female
Vonette Dixon

An alternate would only therefore become a part of the team if it becomes necessary for them to replace an athlete named to the team.

Additionally, Samantha Henry, Lerone Clarke and Anastasia Le-Roy are reserves for the various relay pools and may be selected to the team in the event that it becomes necessary for such a replacement.
