News by way of a post on Chile ducks's board:
The Ducks are getting another Jamaican sprinter! Apparently, Kemba Nelson has committed to Oregon. She is the 100m and 200m teenage Jamaica national champion.
PRs ....100m 11.49 200m 23.47. Keep them coming!
She could be seen as a high 4 star or a low 5 star talent. I think that we will discover that she is a 5 star talent.. She is strong in two events, and anytime you get a Jamaican teenage sprint champion it is a head turner.I doubt that she will go pro right out of high school.
I want to note that Jamaican Brianna Williams is the world's fastest teenager in the 100m and 200m. Brianna did finish ahead of Kemba in the 100m, but was DQed over having a banned substance in her blood. It was later decided that it was not her fault and she may continue to race. However the DQ at the Jamaican U20 sticks, Williams is the most gifted girls' sprinter in world track history.
