Baylor athlete on winning U.S. relay team

By Ken Sury | Friday, August 22, 2008, 08:52 AM

Baylor’s Reggie Witherspoon was part of the U.S. men’s 4x400 relay team that won its preliminary heat today at the Beijing Olympics.

David Neville (who dove to get third place in yesterday’s 400 final), Kerron Clement, Witherspoon and Angelo Taylor successfully held onto the baton and finished in 2 minutes, 59.98 seconds.

The teams from Great Britain and the Bahamas ran marginally faster races in their heat.

BU’s Jeremy Wariner and LaShawn Merritt likely will be saved to run the final.
